Laneways Street Art

Throughout the 1970's and 80's, much of Melbourne's youth were influenced by the graffiti of New York and this form of street art subsequently became popular in inner city suburbs and along suburban railway and tram lines. In the city particularly, the narrow laneways display an impressive array of this art.
