Today our main focus is on the Street/Urban Art genre and for those who don’t know yet what is the meaning of Street Art, here is the short description:

Street art is an umbrella term defining forms of visual art created in public locations, usually unsanctioned artwork executed outside of the context of traditional art venues. The term gained popularity during the graffiti art boom of the early 1980s and continues to be applied to subsequent incarnations.
Stencil graffiti, wheat-pasted poster art or sticker art, and street installation or sculpture are common forms of modern street art.

The terms “urban art”, “guerrilla art”, “post-graffiti” and “neo-graffiti” are also sometimes used when referring to artwork created in these contexts.
Traditional spray-painted graffiti artwork itself is often included in this category, excluding territorial graffiti or pure vandalism.

Artists who choose the streets as their gallery are often doing so from a preference to communicate directly with the public at large, free from perceived confines of the formal art world.
Street artists sometimes present socially relevant content infused with aesthetic value, to attract attention to a cause or as a form of “art provocation”.

Street artists often travel between countries to spread their designs.
Some artists have gained cult-followings, media and art world attention, and have gone on to work commercially in the styles which made their work known on the streets.
