What is the difference between graffiti and graffiti art?

graffiti takes its name from Latin *graphīre to write . There are so many forms of it that just saying it is all graffiti is almost the same as saying any form of music is just noise. Is graffiti art? i would argue that by its definition it is. As far as saying one is breaking the law and the other is artwork , i believe that falls upon local laws not in the name itself.

What is the difference between Cave art and graffiti?

This is a complicated question, so here's an oversimplified answer. They are not related. This has nothing to do with the morals and ethics of art, but graffiti relates more to vandalizing and putting your name out for others to see. Many people tie graffiti and tagging together, while others see the two art forms as distinct- that is another issue entirely. This is oversimplifying what graffiti is and what graffiti artists stand for, but it can be looked at as a rebellious action. It is an action against authority and a movement of free expression. Whereas cave paintings are an ancient art form. It was not about rebelling against an establishment. It is thought to be a sacred practice that took place thousands of years ago. The only similarities they both have is that they are on walls. Other than that NOT THE SAME.
