Street art is any
art developed in
public spaces — that is, "in the
streets" — though the term usually refers to unsanctioned art, as opposed to government sponsored initiatives. The term can include traditional
graffiti artwork,
stencil graffiti,
sticker art,
wheatpasting and
street poster art, video projection,
art intervention, guerrilla art,
flash mobbing and
street installations. Typically, the term
street art or the more specific
post-graffiti is used to distinguish contemporary public-space artwork from territorial graffiti,
vandalism, and corporate art.
Artists have challenged art by situating it in non-art contexts. ‘Street’ artists do not aspire to change the definition of an artwork, but rather to question the existing environment with its own language. They attempt to have their work communicate with everyday people about socially relevant themes in ways that are informed by esthetic values without being imprisoned by them.
[1] John Fekner defines street art as “all art on the street that’s not graffiti.”
