Often he enlists their assistance and designs his murals to appeal to these youths as well as to discourage them from participating in antisocial behavior.Highlighting the interplay of contemporary life, mass-media images that confront the public, and the use of physical space in the city landscape, "Chicano Graffiti and Murals" shows how such art as Quezada's has become the signature of modern urban culture.
