Street Art - Vandalism or Art??

I recall doing an art piece back in my high school days with a similar title, expcept mine was titled "Graffiti - Art or Vandalism?".

I can't help but laugh when you hear of local councils putting up perplex over the latest "Banksy" to protect it getting damaged or tagged over. I also enjoyed the recent web article about King Robbo and Banksy (Google it if you've got a spare 5 minutes).

Anyhow, even though i've grown older i'm still a fan of graffiti. I'm also a fan of good design..in any format in life. It really helps to make you want to think out of the box when you are walking around town, or on your way to work, or even enjoying a day out with the family & friends.

Below are some pictures of some street art taken from www.StreetArtUtopia.com. Check it out, it's regularly updated with great work by Artist from all over the world.
