Essai4cover 540x322 All you need to know about graffiti is in this book|By Benoit Ollive

“All you need to know about graffiti is in this book” is a fresh new piece by Benoit Ollive. The piece was inspired by Ollive’s struggle to explain his views on graffiti. He explains,

Graffiti is often misunderstood, and it is difficult for a graffiti writer to explain what he feels about it. I have been asked by a book publisher to write few pages to explain to teenagers how to practice graffiti. After hours and hours I came to the conclusion there was nothing to teach about it except providing the tool to do it. The new generation needs to discover it by practising it instead of reading lessons. Rather than a long sterile speech debating on the good or bad vertues I created my own book to share my point of view through a conceptual message.
