And the graffiti doesn't even look good

If we’re talking tags, then I’m with you. But graffiti like this is more art than you find in a gallery nowadays. I’ll take that any time. http://youthincmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Graffiti.jpg

A lot of those nice “graffiti” works are actually commissioned by the building directly. It’s not usually something that someone does overnight. They’ll set up actual scaffolding and cordon the area off while the artist works. Because it’s an actual art piece, not just a random tag.

Eh, commissioned pieces definitely exist but you also have some awesome artists doing it the old fashioned way for sure.
