Creative violation : the rebel art of the street stencil

Called art by some and vandalism by others, street art transforms the urban landscape into a forum for self-expression. Filmed in New York City, Pittsburgh, and Toronto, this program documents the underground art form of street stenciling and explores its roots in political street art, industrial signage, and freehand graffiti. Stencil artists pose critical questions about the role of free speech in public spaces as they describe their motives and demonstrate their methods
