ABOUT MURALS
A mural is any piece of graphic artwork that is painted or applied directly to a wall, ceiling or other permanent substrate.
Murals are important in that they bring art into the public sphere.
Muralists must often be commissioned due to the size, cost, and work involved in creating a mural.
Often it is the local government or a business, but many murals have been paid for with grants of patronage.
For artists, their work gets a wide audience who otherwise might not set foot in an art gallery.
A city or town benefits by the beauty of a work of art.
Murals can be a relatively effective tool of social emancipation or achieving a political goal.
Murals have sometimes been created against the law.
In contrast, murals have been commissioned by local bars and coffee shops.
Often, the visual effects are an enticement to attract public attention to social issues.
State-sponsored public art expressions, particularly murals, are often used by totalitarian regimes as a tool of propaganda. However, despite the propagandist character of that works, some of them still have an artistic value.
Murals can have a dramatic impact whether consciously or subconsciously on the attitudes of passers-by.
In addition, murals are added to areas where people live and work.
It can also be argued that the presence of large, public murals can add aesthetic improvement to the daily lives of residents or that of employees at a corporate venue.
Large-format hand-painted murals were the norm for advertisements in cities across America, before the introduction of vinyl and digital posters.
It was an expensive form of advertising with strict signage laws but gained attention and improved local aesthetics.
Many rural towns have begun using murals to create tourist attractions in order to boost economic income.
