Mural vandalized. edit

Unfortunately, the mural has been vandalized. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/france/12115241/Banksy-mural-of-Steve-Jobs-defaced-in-Calais.html

But since graffiti is already considered as vandalizing a structure, then can a vandalization really be vandalized? And if the City of Calais tried to protect the graffiti, does that mean it was elevated from graffiti to art? At what point did that transition take place? For example, if it was exactly the same, but created by someone else or wasn't recognized as being done by Bansky, would it still be thought of as art? I'm dizzy!
