Last summer, we got together with some young people in Santa Fe to discuss the issue of graffiti. The conversation ranged from "What is art?" to "When and where is graffiti art legal or illegal?" to "What are the relationships between private and public property, and free speech?" There are many very talented artists, including the young artist who shared with us (anonymously) the pieces shown here. There is also a great need for legal spaces in Santa Fe for this art form.
