Street art – or grafitti – has got to be the quintessential **art for the masses**. It is **free** to view as **part of our environment**, is often created by **self-taught artists** and is a global, democratic phenomenon. These artists want to paint about issues important to all of us, about real life, about **visceral, emotional views** and feelings that strike at the heart of what it is to be part of society. It is **ephemeral** art that is in continual development and flux, reflecting the changing nature of life and society and thus has long been a source of **politically motivated messages**, representing criticism, resistance and anger – it can be a powerful tool in such cases.

**As proud suppliers** of products to several London art galleries, we like to stay on top of what is going on around the country. As we inch toward the start of the new school term, there's still time to get out and see some **incredible art**. Perhaps you'll see something in this list to spur you on to an artistic outing.
