Bomb It !

One evening i was flipping through the channels and came across this. Bomb It is a documentary about one of the most controversial forms of art from all over the world. Graffiti.I talks about the origin of graffiti dating back to prehistoric caves up to the 80's when it took New York by storm. Many great artist go unknown because their art is not signed because its seen as a crime.It is said to be a beautiful crime.

It shows people in action "Bombing It". Graffiti is looked at as a crime of vandalism but in reality its art. Why does art need to be on paper, canvas or in museum. The city walls are just as great. they are empty canvas waiting for someone to express themselves. Its a different language.   

In the early 80's it was seen as a crime to political warfare in South Africa, then in the early 90's these graffiti artists started doing there names.It stared as a way to express there want of Mandel being freed.If caught it was a political crime and you would be detained without trail or a hearing.

The Graffiti has influences today's in the world of advertising. Today's billboard evolved from graffiti. The only difference is that billboards are legal. This documentary contains a lot of info and a point of view from the artistes I extremely recommend any artist to watch this.

GRAFFITI is a way of LIFE!!
