Graffiti Verite (1995)
Member Rating:
Graffiti Verite explores the underground graffiti scene of urban Los Angeles. The documentary interviews 24 graffiti artists and features footage of their bold, colorful outdoor work. The interviewees draw a connection between their work and ancient hieroglyphics and cave paintings and also describe graffiti art as a subversive means of counter-programming the culture. After all, graffiti art on walls and fences contends with equally large advertising billboards, and strives to convey something separate from commercialism. Painting a fresh picture of graffiti enthusiasts, the documentary annihilates the image of the graffiti vandal and introduces the graffiti artist. ~ Betsy Boyd, Rovi
