Yes. Graffiti can be seen as a display of public art though in some instances it is illegal. Banksy is considered a graffiti artist. He creates social commentary while tagging the city. There is a difference though, between gang graffiti and art graffiti.

Is graffiti good?

Most people do not like graffiti. It defaces buildings and signs, costs billions every year in cleaning, re-painting, or replacing of windows, signs, etc., and is a public nuisance. Many people believe that graffiti is associated with gangs, drugs, and criminal acts, so they hate and fear what graffiti represents. In some cities, police departments regularly investigate the codes and symbols used in graffiti in order to help combat gang-related crimes. They don't remove the graffiti, but instead use it just like tourists would use a map and "city guide" to understand the goings-on within a city. Many crimes have been solved by police detectives who have studied the "language and symbols" of graffiti. However, in opposition to the millions of people who hate graffiti, some groups consider it "street art". Some cities' councils have thrown up their hands and ended up setting aside places where graffiti is permitted.
