Is it art or is it just vandalism（故意破坏公共财物罪）?Well, it's still a crime ,but graffiti（涂鸦）has
changed since the days of spraying your name on a wall to mark your territory.Street art has become much
more sophisticated since a 17-year-old called Demetrius started spraying his"tag",TAKI 183,all over the
New York underground in 1971,and hip-hop culture was born.Hip-hop is a mixture of art,music,dancing,
poetry,language and fashion.It came from 'young inner-city people,who felt left out by their richer classmates
and who were desperate to express themselves in any way they could.
An experiment to control the spread of graffiti in Rochdale,Greater Manchester,has been so successful
that plans have been made by local street artists for an international convention in June."We're planning to
get people together from different countries like France and Germany for a week,"says Liam,one of the
organizers. The scheme started in 2000,and has attracted people of all age groups and both sexes."We all
share a common interest and get on really well with each other."The first site to be chosen was a subway.
"Before we began,people were afraid to use the subway.We had it cleaned up,and now,with all the artists
hanging out down there,people are using it again.People can relate to graffiti much more now."By providing
places to display their talents legally,there has been a fall in the amount of"tagging"on people's private
property.
Street artist Temper developed his drawing skills at a young age.In art classes at school he was really
frustrated because the art teachers didn't spend time with him. They thought he was already very good at art
and so spent more time with other students.So,at 12 years old,Temper started painting with all these guys
he'd hooked up with and who were about 22 years old.He looked up to them and loved what they were doing
on the streets of Wolverhampton,England."The whole hip-hop scene was built up of different things and I
did a bit of everything. But it was always the graffiti I was best at."he says. Demetrius was a teenager from New York.A:RightB:WrongC:Not mentioned
