The artwork titled “Tag” by the artist TAKI 183, created in 1971, belongs to the street art movement and the genre of graffiti.
The artwork features a collection of various tags, writings, and signatures inscribed on what appears to be a door or wall surface. It prominently showcases the tag “TAKI 183,” among other names and numbers, suggesting the artist’s presence and identity within the urban landscape. This early example of graffiti art captures the essence of street culture and the act of marking one’s territory or leaving a personal mark in public spaces. The monochromatic composition emphasizes the raw and spontaneous nature of graffiti, a key characteristic of the street art movement in the early 1970s.
