Graffiti is a form of free expression of human. Modern graffiti came into being and peaked during the second half of the 20th century, with youngsters establishing their identities in the streets and artists who yearned to convey their opinions concerning social and political matters.

Spray on Walls: Urban Adventure of Graffiti Art begins with the history and culture of subway graffiti, the most well-known style of graffiti. In parallel with subway graffiti, stencil graffiti, one of the most authentic forms of street art, is introduced. The third chapter pays attention to wheatpaste graffiti, which is a variant of commercial advertisement.

After introducing the three most important forms of graffiti, the creation process and techniques are presented to show readers the actual scene of creation for graffiti artists. Last but not least, the fifth chapter showcases a large number of graffiti works of various styles.
