Green Villain 002 on 3 Quarks Daily

By Bbenzon @bbenzon

My latest essay for 3 Quarks Daily is now up: Graffiti is the most important art form of the last half-century... It features photos of a production in Jersey City organized by Green Villain and featuring members of MSK.

It’s not simply about graffiti itself, but also about what graffiti enables and provokes. So-called street art followed from graffiti’s liberation of public space though it is often quite different from graffiti.
What will the visual arts become as graffiti continues to percolate through the culture?
