Urban Calligraphy/Intro  From Wikibooks, open books for an open
world < Urban Calligraphy Jump to: navigation, search  Welcome
to NYC, where, around every corner, there is something on the
wall. Each bend you turn there is another piece sprayed or
written on the wall. They all vary: KEZ1...SUBJECT...TKZ...You
watch people turn their heads in disgust as they look at this
vandalism.  I turn and smile at it.  Welcome to the world of
graffiti. However, before you turn your head from this page,
know this:  If Leonardo Da Vinci had painted Mona Lisa on his
neighbor's wall, then they would have turned their heads in
disgust. But it was a professional canvas painting, and is now
famous. But, due to the massive abuse of spray paint on walls,
any form of calligraphy that has arrows, dots, stars,and fast
curves in it is looked at with disgust.If anyone did that to my
house, I'd get them locked up for it.  But as an artform, it's
beautiful.  What is "graff"?
