Best Answer

Graffiti has been around forever. Just depends on what you mean by graffiti ... for example, the Egyptians drew elaborate pictures on their walls. However, graffiti in the common sense (i.e. spray painted pictures and words on walls) really developed in the early 70's in New York. So ... in summary, your answer depends on what you mean by "graffiti". But, suffice it to say, the current style of graffiti took off in the 70's and got really big in the late 70's / early 80's.

Is graffiti illegall?

I would assume so. It is considered destruction of property.... unless of course it is your own property and you don't mind it. Graffiti is illegal in most states and countries, but it depends on what kind of graffiti. For example, reverse graffiti causes police to be baffled on it's legal state. This is because reverse graffiti is created by washing dirt off of a wall, instead of adding on to it with a spray can. Also, the famous but mysterious graffitist Bansky is known for his graffiti which brings a world image and causes you to think. Bansky and related art is legal and sometimes even encouraged in some states.
