As long as they had permission from the property owner I have no problem with that art. If no permission, it's still vandalism no matter how beautiful. Those are very cool. Reno has a program or allows the power boxes to be painted. It has been shown that a "canvas" that has art on it is significantly less likely to be tagged.
When I think of graffiti, I think of a particular art form. Yes, on a wall in a publicly visible space.
But the reverse isn't true. Not all wall mural are in that style.

I know I linked it in the other thread but Exit through the Gift Shop is a very meta documentary/mockumentary (Sundance lauded) on street art. It is still a question whether Mr. Brainwash is himself an artistic concept created by Banksy just as there is an open question as to whether Banksy remains a single person
I totally understand the position that all non commisioned or authorised work is just vandalism but given the commercial forces who have free rein to assault our vision in urban environments I find it easier to accept the contention that things are still valid as art even if ephemeral and a bit of a nuisance. At least if it has wit, passion or creativity. Basic tagging which is where we came in not so much.
