A talk on Graffiti in Portland ME

This is a talk held by PACA and Space Gallery in Portland ME about graffiti. The title of the talk was Street Art vs Graffiti, which I think indicates an academic fight against it and not a look at it as an art form. When the talk started and as it went on, there was shown a clear reason why it is an art form. It was really a talk more about what graffiti is about and the people who have a problem with it - property owners and the city. It was also asked what can be done among the graffiti community and the non-graffiti community to see if some kind of agreement could be reached between the two. 

Now if you where unable to attend, or did make it and want to re-listen to the talk here you go. It seems like it will be an on-going, hopefully discussion, rather then fight.
