Hmmm is graffiti art? Is the sky blue, of course its art! The way the colors complement each other or contrast each other are elements use to define a work of art. Although it isn't your traditional oil on canvas painting it still shows a form of expression. Graffiti in my eyes help create an aesthetic emotion I say this because everybody would have a different opinion on graffiti for example some people may like it some may detest it. If you really look at a work of graffiti the majority of them has smooth organic shapes and bold statement. Do I think that graffiti should be included in museums? I personally feel that although it is really interesting it shouldn't be included in museums because I feel that museums are places people want to go to see art that they can’t see somewhere else. For example you can go to any part of a New York and see graffiti but you can’t go to any part of New York a suspect to see a work done by Picasso. The only way I believe graffiti can be in a museum is if it has its own museum. Also I believe that museums mostly hold antique and vintage painting for different centuries.
