While graffiti artists have gained credit in the art world by exhibiting their work in art galleries all over the world since the early 1980s, it has been only over the last decade that this art form started to get a wider recognition from both cultural institutions and a growing audience of art collectors. As a consequence, we have been witnessing lately an explosion of projects related to urban art, whether in the form of festivals, museum exhibits, or the arrival of new art galleries specializing in this movement. This abundance is certainly a sign of vitality and interest for graffiti artists, but it may also make it difficult for collectors and art enthusiasts to maintain a keen visibility of this scene.
