Extrait: L'art urbain est un mouvement artistique contemporain. Il regroupe toutes les formes d'art realise dans la rue, ou dans des endroits publics, et englobe diverses techniques telles que le graffiti, le pochoir, la mosaique, les stickers ou les installations. C'est principalement un art ephemere. Depuis quelque temps, on parle aussi de . Depuis son internationalisation (fortement facilitee par le developpement d'un reseau de communication audiovisuelle a l'echelle mondiale) au debut du siecle, l'art urbain, en tant que mouvement de l'art contemporain s'affirme dans une diversite de pratiques que l'on ne peut strictement separer, par certains aspect des arts de la rue comme le Madonnaro. Ainsi, ZEVS (alias: Zone d'Experience Visuelle et Sonore) execute regulierement des performances qui font echo a des disciplines comme le jonglage ou le happening. A ce titre, il pourrait etre qualifie d'artiste de la rue. De meme, une part de l' uvre de Banksy peut etre qualifiee d'art contextuel (selon la terminologie de Paul Ardenne) lorsqu'il vient, par exemple, exposer illegalement dans un musee. La propagande absurde de Shepard Fairey, OBEY the Giant, est un cas limite de zeitgest, presentee par son initiateur comme une experience de phenomenologie. Dans la lignee de Buren ou de Christo, le travail de JR (artiste) questionne la limite de la ville. L'art urbain doit se comprendre comme relation dialectique du street art et du land art (Pierre-Evariste Douaire). Le developpement de la scene...

Book Graffiti and Street Art

Download or read book Graffiti and Street Art written by Konstantinos Avramidis and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-12-08 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Graffiti and street art images are ubiquitous, and they enjoy a very special place in collective imaginary due to their ambiguous nature. Sometimes enigmatic in meaning, often stylistically crude and aesthetically aggressive, yet always visually arresting, they fill our field of vision with texts and images that no one can escape. As they take place on surfaces and travel through various channels, they provide viewers an entry point to the subtext of the cities we live in, while questioning how we read, write and represent them. This book is structured around these three distinct, albeit by definition interwoven, key frames. The contributors of this volume critically investigate underexplored urban contexts in which graffiti and street art appear, shed light on previously unexamined aspects of these practices, and introduce innovative methodologies regarding the treatment of these images. Throughout, the focus is on the relationship of graffiti and street art with urban space, and the various manifestations of these idiosyncratic meetings. In this book, the emphasis is shifted from what the physical texts say to what these practices and their produced images do in different contexts. All chapters are original and come from experts in various fields, such as Architecture, Urban Studies, Sociology, Criminology, Anthropology and Visual Cultures, as well as scholars that transcend traditional disciplinary frameworks. This exciting new collection is essential reading for advanced undergraduates as well as postgraduates and academics interested in the subject matter. It is also accessible to a non-academic audience, such as art practitioners and policymakers alike, or anyone keen on deepening their knowledge on how graffiti and street art affect the ways urban environments are experienced, understood and envisioned.

Book excerpt: Très décrié à ses débuts par ceux qui n'y voyaient que des gribouillages voire même des dégradations, le Street Art envahit aujourd'hui l'espace public avec de plus en plus d'audace, d'imagination et de poésie. Des pochoirs de Miss Tic aux amusants collages sur les panneaux de signalisation de Clet Abraham, des premiers graffitis de Jérôme Mesnager aux petites mosaïques de Space Invader, des tags anonymes exécutés ça et là aux installations hyper médiatisées de Bansky, cet ouvrage nous offre un magnifique panorama de l'art urbain. De même que les cubistes ou les impressionnistes se côtoyaient et se nourrissaient du travail des uns et des autres, aujourd'hui les artistes urbains échangent, se mélangent, s'interpellent et exposent tous dans la même galerie : la rue ! En 192 pages enthousiasmantes, c'est à la visite de cette galerie foisonnante que vous invite Street Art.

Download or read book Ornament and Order written by Rafael Schacter and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-13 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last forty years, graffiti and street-art have become a global phenomenon within the visual arts. Whilst they have increasingly been taken seriously by the art establishment (or perhaps the art market), their academic and popular examination still remains within old debates which argue over whether these acts are vandalism or art, and which examine the role of graffiti in gang culture and in terms of visual pollution. Based on an in-depth ethnographic study working with some of the world’s most influential Independent Public Artists, this book takes a completely new approach. Placing these illicit aesthetic practices within a broader historical, political, and aesthetic context, it argues that they are in fact both intrinsically ornamental (working within a classic architectonic framework), as well as innately ordered (within a highly ritualized, performative structure). Rather than disharmonic, destructive forms, rather than ones solely working within the dynamics of the market, these insurgent images are seen to reface rather than deface the city, operating within a modality of contemporary civic ritual. The book is divided into two main sections, Ornament and Order. Ornament focuses upon the physical artifacts themselves, the various meanings these public artists ascribe to their images as well as the tensions and communicative schemata emerging out of their material form. Using two very different understandings of political action, it places these illicit icons within the wider theoretical debate over the public sphere that they materially re-present. Order is focused more closely on the ephemeral trace of these spatial acts, the explicitly performative, practice-based elements of their aesthetic production. Exploring thematics such as carnival and play, risk and creativity, it tracks how the very residue of this cultural production structures and shapes the socio-ethico guidelines of these artists’ lifeworlds.

Download or read book Street Art Public City written by Alison Young and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-11-20 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is street art? Who is the street artist? Why is street art a crime? Since the late 1990s, a distinctive cultural practice has emerged in many cities: street art, involving the placement of uncommissioned artworks in public places. Sometimes regarded as a variant of graffiti, sometimes called a new art movement, its practitioners engage in illicit activities while at the same time the resulting artworks can command high prices at auction and have become collectable aesthetic commodities. Such paradoxical responses show that street art challenges conventional understandings of culture, law, crime and art. Street Art, Public City: Law, Crime and the Urban Imagination engages with those paradoxes in order to understand how street art reveals new modes of citizenship in the contemporary city. It examines the histories of street art and the motivations of street artists, and the experiences both of making street art and looking at street art in public space. It considers the ways in which street art has become an integral part of the identity of cities such as London, New York, Berlin, and Melbourne, at the same time as street art has become increasingly criminalised. It investigates the implications of street art for conceptions of property and authority, and suggests that street art and the urban imagination can point us towards a different kind of city: the public city. Street Art, Public City will be of interest to readers concerned with art, culture, law, cities and urban space, and also to readers in the fields of legal studies, cultural criminology, urban geography, cultural studies and art more generally.

Book The Street Art World

Download or read book The Street Art World written by Peter Bengtsen and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, street art has become embedded in popular culture and received growing attention from the art market and art institutions. Work by street artists has entered galleries, auction houses and museums, and some artists have been given the opportunity to create large-scale sanctioned public art projects. Simultaneously, widespread photographic documentation of street artworks and the circulation of images online have provided artists with a potentially global audience. Based on studies of everyday interaction among artists, gallerists, collectors, bloggers and street art enthusiasts, The Street Art World investigates the often contradictory attitudes within the street art community towards art history and the institutions of art. The book also deliberates on street art's connection to the art market and public art. It considers street art's potential to affect the viewer's perception of public space, and the possible challenges the increasing digital mediation of street art may pose to bringing this potential to fruition. Peter Bengtsen is an art historian and sociologist.

Book excerpt: Ninni è un giovane fotografo torinese con un breve passato da writer che in pochissimo tempo è diventato un artista emergente rispettato dalla comunità degli street artisti torinesi e italiani. Ha la fortuna di vivere in quella che è diventata una delle capitali del muralismo artistico europeo, in cui ha potuto incontrare 66 artisti tra i migliori della scena italiana intenti a produrre più di 70 “pezzi” sui “muri” del vecchio zoo. L’idea è stata quella di vedere cosa c’è “oltre i muri” che quegli artisti dipingono, quali sono le loro storie, ricostruendo il loro mondo e la loro psicologia. Prende in questo modo vita il progetto “Over The Wall”: tra il 2012 e il 2013 Livio Ninni dà forma alle loro narrazioni esistenziali con lo strumento che gli è più congeniale, la fotografia.

Download or read book Urban Art written by Garry Hunter and published by Arcturus Publishing. This book was released on 2021-10-01 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Urban art - the decoration of public spaces - combines street art and graffiti and is an international creative practice. Many urban artists address issues such as human rights, the environment and lifestyle choices by challenging and confronting established thinking. Some artists feature heroes or icons in their work, others use illusions to lure the viewer into examining the art and trying to figure out what is real and what is not. Others still pay homage to less wellknown people who have worked for the good of humanity. Along with the urban landscape, this art form is evolving all the time, reflecting the zeitgeist, asking questions, and grabbing the attention of the passing city dweller.

  • ISBN : 0786452250
  • Pages : 222 pages

Download or read book Graffiti Art Styles written by Lisa Gottlieb and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-01-10 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a classification system for graffiti art styles that reflects the expertise of graffiti writers and the work of art historian Erwin Panofsky. Based on Panofsky's theories of iconographical analysis, the classification model is designed to identify the style of a graffiti art piece through its visual characteristics. Tested by image cataloguers in archives, libraries, and museums, the system assists information professionals in identifying the iconic styles of graffiti art pieces. It also demonstrates the power of Panofsky's theories to provide access to non-representational or abstract art images. The result is a new paradigm for Panofsky's theories that challenges the assumptions of traditional models. This innovative book is a valuable resource for anyone who wants to learn more about graffiti art and for information professionals concerned with both the practical and intellectual issues surrounding image access.
