Graffiti culture



The different type of culture I chose to learn about was the Graffiti culture. This is one of the four types of elements of Hip-Hop. It is also a form of art, and it expresses cultural meaning. Graffiti is easily misunderstood and can be illegal to do. This came into New York during the year of the 1960s. Then in the 1970s there began to be something called "Style Wars", which were when graffiti artists had competitions to see who was bigger and better. The trend still exists to this day, and is a major part of the urban environment. Graffiti is an important and powerful form of art that has been spread over the years and all over the world.
