Graffiti WarsMay 5, 2015

Graffiti today is transcending social nuisance to gain cultural and artistic credibility. This program explores the creative tension that has surfaced in a recent conflict between graffiti legend King Robbo and famous street artist Banksy; a spat which has been described as the biggest art rivalry since Picasso and Matisse. In London, the tension between the two camps has played out in a battle of spray cans. The film goes behind enemy lines as the war escalates. (From the UK) (Documentary) (Rpt) M (L)
