How old is graffiti
Graffiti appeared in ancient times, with examples dating back to ancient Egypt, ancient Greece, and the Roman Empire. For example, in the Roman Empire, people wrote messages and drew pictures on walls.
History
Graffiti art is drawings and writing that have been painted onto walls, usually in public spaces. Graffiti includes from simple written words to elaborate wall paintings. Graffiti art has a long history. Because it's simple to do, graffiti has been around for centuries, with drawings being found on ancient buildings.
Modern Graffiti
Modern graffiti became famous in New York City in the early 1970s. With its growth through the years, it has now entered popular culture. It is made on buildings, bridges, street signs and other areas. It can even be seen in galleries(画廊) around the world. Modern graffiti is much loved by young artists and fans.
Graffiti in Southeast Asia
There are also a large number of graffiti influences in Southeast Asian countries. For example, graffiti has already been a common sight in Malaysia's capital city, Kuala Lumpur(吉隆坡). Since 2010, the country has begun hosting a street festival to encourage Malaysian street culture. During it, people can also enjoy a taste of Malaysian food and cultural performances.
Graffiti Around the World
Some cities have graffiti walls, where people can express their artistic vision freely. Berlin, Germany, is home to a lot of graffiti. It is often called the graffiti capital of the world. Graffiti makes the old walls like an outdoor gallery.
Laws on Graffiti
In some cities, you must have permission(许可) from the owner of the wall before painting on it. If not, you may face a big fine.
