Difference between art and graffiti:
Art and graffiti often get mixed up with one another because they have so many similarities, but there is some differences between art and graffiti. **Graffiti artists do not care about about the public understanding there art** and most commonly tag public property with words illegally. Often graffiti artists only graffiti to speak to other graffiti artists, for example one gang might be trying to intimidate other gang. Artists try and give their work a meaning and want people to view their art and understand the meaning behind it, even if it is a little difficult to understand.Is graffiti art or vandalism?
There are two different types of art, street art graffiti (art) and graffiti art (vandalism), the main difference between street art and graffiti is the legal rights. Another difference between street art graffiti and art is that commonly graffiti artists don’t care about expressing their emotions and most commonly only tag public property using maybe and gang name or inappropriate words. Street art expresses emotions and sends a message, unlike graffiti, the artists also have permission to do the art. It also depends where the art is located, if the graffiti is located on public property without any permission, than it is vandalism. A street artist may create street art on a brick wall with permission.
