Important Locations
The intersection between Houston and the Bowery in NY has been a target of artists since the 1970s. One important location is the "Bowery Wall," also known as a mural, became available for artists to use. The government bought this mural to enable different artists to paint and decorate the streets. However, the wall really became famous when a renown street artist named Keith Haring started painting on the wall. His paintings started attracting public and media attention. As a result, the wall became famous and is now considered the center of graffiti.
