When did Graffiti Become Street Art?Īlthough the history of graffiti and street art – as well as guerrilla and public protest art – can be traced back to ancient Mesopotamia, the terms ‘street art’ and ‘graffiti’ generally refer to art created since the 1960s. This type of visual art including varieties of modern graffiti, independent art, guerrilla art, post-graffiti and neo-graffiti, some kinds of mural and statuary, and even flash mob performances, guerilla gardening and yarn bombing. There are many different genres and movements that fall under the category of street art. Although street art comes in many different styles and forms, it all (usually) has one thing in common: it is created in public locations and for public visibility.
