Graffiti in Toronto
''For a more general discussion of the subject, see graffiti''
Graffiti in the City of Toronto, Canada’s largest urban capital, is cause for much disagreement. The graffiti is seen by many as an art form adding to the city’s culture.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.blogto.com/arts/2012/08/10_toronto_graffiti_writers_worth_knowing_about/ )〕 However, many individuals also look at graffiti as a form of vandalism causing damage to property, and giving Toronto a look of a city of crime.
==History==
It is believed that the Toronto graffiti movement started to become truly active in the late 80s and all throughout the 90s. It is very eye opening and interesting that Toronto’s graffiti landscape has been heavily influenced and shaped by New York City (NYC) and its graffiti artists. One blogger remarked that pieces on Toronto buildings, walls and overpasses embrace the culture of New York City〔Kefentse 2009〕 and what it contributed to Toronto’s graffiti scene, however there are some who believe that Toronto has a unique flavor to its work because it often represents various cultures There are several reasons that Toronto has such a rich history of graffiti: the city has a lot of controversy over graffiti, the city has many visible spots for artists to show their work ((such as graffiti alley )), as well as willing artists that (challenge the city. ) Artists believe Toronto is the perfect size for the art to begin a discussion on matters, spark conversation and set roots for a new generation of graffiti artists.
The schism created by these artists is the reason why many believe Toronto’s graffiti scene is so dynamic and influential in its circles.〔Senses Lost 2009〕 In earlier years, many works were original and told an important story from the artists’ point of view. Many still hold themes of love and family, tell stories of their lives, or use graffiti to share with the city the artists’ never-happening dream. It is hard to describe the history of the city’s graffiti without acknowledging the emotion infused within each piece.
