Graffiti & Wall Murals
in Wandering Lizard
Graffiti and wall murals are an integral part of many American cities. Usually dubbed "tagging" or "graffiti" when done illegally and "mural art" when commssioned, it is an increasingly interesting art form whether you approve of it or not. There are examples of both graffiti and mural art all through Wandering Lizard. The links below will take you to some representative samples of the work.
"The violent illiteracies of the graffiti, the clenched
silence of the adolescent, the nonsense cries
from the stage-happening, are
resolutely strategic."
George Steiner
