Description:Derided as graffiti by outsiders, hailed as "writing" by the artists themselves, spray-can art glowed as a whole new art genre in the 1970s. Its practitioners made New York City's subway cars their movable canvas. Though helpless in checking its spreading appeal, city fathers immediately went on the attack and denounced it as vandalism. Many aficionados, however, recognized its trendy aesthetic immediately. By the 1980s spray-paint art had hit the mainstream, and subway painters, mostly from marginal barrios of the city, became art world darlings. The creative period of the movement has lasted for over twenty years, but most of the original works have vanished. Official cleanup of public sites erased great pieces of the heyday. They exist now only in photographs and in the artists' sketchbooks. Filled with illustrations and insights, Aerosol Kingdom is the story of the flowering of this period when creative vandalism made its ineffaceable mark.
