What is the history behind graffiti tags?
A graffiti tag is the personalized signature of a graffiti artist. A tag is usually two to three letters long, sometimes accompanied by numbers or other characters. The style of a tag reflects the artist's personality and can be used to identify the work of a particular individual.
Tags first appeared in Philadelphia in the early 1970s. They were originally created as a way for graffiti artists to distinguish their work from that of other writers. As tagging became more popular, it began to spread to other cities across the United States. By the 1980s, tagging had become an international phenomenon, with artists from all over the world using tags to sign their work.
Today, tagging is still an important part of the graffiti subculture. Many artists see it as a way to assert their individuality and creativity. While some people view tags as vandalism, many see them as works of art in themselves.
