A Two-way Street
http://www.artnewsonline.com/issues/article.asp?art_id=2570
This article is about street art gradually being viewed in a new light. Many people used to associated graffiti with juvenile delinquents and gangsters who had nothing better to do with their lives than vandalize buildings. Now people are learning to appreciate street art and there have been museums, institutes, even laws prohibiting eliminating graffiti, made for this art. Street art not only includes graffiti, but also stickers, posters, murals, and sculptures.
