Here, Melbourne-based copyright lawyer, Sharon Givoni, considers how the laws relating to street art may be relevant to illustrators. She tries to make you “street smart” in an environment where increasingly such creations are not only tolerated, but even celebrated. 1 Street Art Melbourne, Lou Chamberlin, Explore Australia Publishing Pty Ltd, 2013, Comments made on the back cover. It canvasses: 1. copyright issues; 2. moral rights laws; and 3. the conflict between intellectual property and real property. Why this topic? One only needs to drive down the streets of Melbourne to realise that urban art is so ubiquitous that the city has been unofficially dubbed the stencil graffiti capital. Street art has rapidly gained momentum as an art form in its own right. So much so that Melbourne-based street artist Luke Cornish (aka E.L.K.) was an Archibald finalist in 2012 with his street art inspired stencilled portrait.1 The work, according to Bonham’s Auction House, was recently sold at auction for AUD $34,160.00.2 Stencil seen in the London suburb of Shoreditch. Photo Credit: Chris Scott Artist: Unknown It is therefore becoming increasingly important that illustra- tors working within the street art scene understand how the law (particularly copyright law) may apply. -

Thank you for pushing me to write about a topic that simultaneously scared and excited me. I could not have done this thesis without you. Your advice, patience, and guidance during the past four years have been immeasurable, and I cannot adequately express how much I appreciate that. Thank you, Taieb Belghazi, for first introducing me to the importance of art in the Arab Spring. This project only came about because you encouraged and inspired me to write about political art in Morocco two years ago. Your courses had great influence over what I am most passionate about today.

This article is available in Kaleidoscope: A Graduate Journal of Qualitative Communication Research: http://opensiuc.lib.siu.edu/ kaleidoscope/vol14/iss1/3 Banksy at Disneyland: Generic Participation in Culture Jamming Joshua Carlisle Harzman Culture jamming is a profound genre of communication and its proliferation demands further academic scholarship. However, there exists a substantial gap in the literature, specifically regarding a framework for determining participation within the genre of culture jamming. This essay seeks to offer such a foundation and subsequently considers participation of an artifact. First, the three elements of culture jamming genre are established and identified: artifact, distortion, and awareness. Second, the street art installment, Banksy at Disneyland, is analyzed for participation within the genre of culture jamming. -
Street Art Rising Marshall Soules—[email protected]
Vol 1 No 2 (Autumn 2020) Online: jps.library.utoronto.ca/index.php/nexj Visit our WebBlog: newexplorations.net Street Art Rising Marshall Soules—[email protected] This illustrated article discusses the various manifestations of street art—graffiti, posters, stencils, social murals—and the impact of street art on urban environments. Continuing perceptions of street art as vandalism contributing to urban decay neglects to account for street art’s full spectrum of effects. As freedom of expression protected by law, as news from under-privileged classes, as images of social uplift and consciousness-raising, and as beautification of urban milieux, street art has social benefits requiring re-assessment. Street art has become a significant global art movement. Detailed contextual history includes the photographer Brassai's interest in Parisian graffiti between the world wars; Cézanne’s use of passage; Walter Benjamin's assemblage of fragments in The Arcades Project; the practice of dérive (passage through diverse ambiances, drifting) and détournement (rerouting, hijacking) as social and political intervention advocated by Guy Debord and the Situationist International; Dada and Surrealist montage and collage; and the art of Quebec Automatists and French Nouveaux réalistes. Present street art engages dynamically with 20th C. art history. The article explores McLuhan’s ideas about the power of mosaic style to subvert the received order, opening spaces for new discourse to emerge, new patterns to be discovered. The author compares street art to advertising, and raises questions about appropriation, authenticity, and style. How does street art survive when it leaves the streets for galleries, design shops, and museums? Street art continues to challenge communication strategies of the privileged classes and elected officials, and increasingly plays a reconstructive role in modulating the emotional tenor of urban spaces. -

Examining Street Art Expressions of Social Justice Who Is Banksy? and When He Did First Appear?
Examining Street Art Expressions of Social Justice Who is Banksy? And when he did first appear? We don't exactly know. Banksy is a famous - but anonymous - British graffiti artist. He keeps his identity a secret. Although a lot of his art is produced in public places, he usually only reveals it's his after it has appeared on his social media. A lot of his art is done in a particular style which people can easily recognise. Although lots of people have tried to guess who he is, his identity has still not been revealed. Banksy first got noticed for spray-painting trains and walls in his home city of Bristol during the early 1990s. Street art and graffiti can be considered criminal damage, so in the beginning it's thought the artist stayed anonymous to keep out of trouble. In the beginning his pieces were mainly in Bristol, but in the 2000s his artworks started appearing all over the UK and other parts of the world. What is Banksy's style? Banksy chose to use stencils to create his pieces, probably because it's a faster way to paint. He was influenced in his early days by a French graffiti artist called Blek le Rat. Blek le Rat is considered to be the father of stencil graffiti and people sometimes confuse the work of the two artists. Banksy doesn't only do street art, he's produced drawings, paintings and installation pieces. He even created his own theme park called Dismaland. What is he trying to say with his art? Banksy's work is known for delivering political messages. -
Street Art/Graffiti Self-Portraits
STREET ART/GRAFFITI SELF-PORTRAITS A high school unit plan focusing on how visual artists use images, symbols, and words to convey meaning. Aimee Carmella Background/Intent With a background in both creative design and art education, I find that I draw on my strengths as a designer when I create lesson plans. Developing a lesson that is worthy of my student’s time and creative energy is paramount. I want the student’s end result – the work of art created or simply their process of experimentation – to be meaningful and worthwhile. I treat my work as a designer in the same manner. I want to make meaning with what I create. I solve problems to get to where I need to be with a design I develop. Formulating lesson plans becomes a puzzle that I need to organize and design so that the message reads clearly and resonates with what I am trying to express. When I design lessons to use in the classroom, I begin with a complex idea and break it down into lessons that scaffold upon one another. I feel that since students will be picking up several skills (i.e., how to correctly photograph another student’s portrait, how to use Photoshop to alter an image, etc.), I want each lesson to be self-contained, having the strength to stand on its own. There should be a clear point to each lesson that is achievable so that students are set up for success. Designing a series of lessons in such a way that they can build knowledge and skill and work toward the larger goals that time to attain. -
Stencilling-Anushka
Questions How did stencilling begin ? When was it first seen as an art form in the streets? Who are the artists currently employing it ? What is Stencilling? Stencil graffiti makes use of stencils made out of paper, cardboard, or other media to create an image or text that is easily reproducible. The desired design is cut out of the selected medium and then the image is transferred to a surface through the use of spray paint or roll- on paint. Often the stencils express political and social opinions of the artist, or are simply images of pop culture icons. By Golan Levin, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania How did stencilling begin? When was it first seen as an art form in the streets? Those who began stencilling may have had many motivations. It is a cheap and easy method to produce a message. Because stencils are prepared ahead of time, and spraying (or rolling) over them is quite quick, a street artist can make a detailed piece in seconds. Since the stencil stays uniform throughout its use, it is easier for an artist to quickly replicate what could be a complicated piece at a very quick rate. The stencil graffiti subculture has been around since the mid 60s to 70s and evolved from the freestyle graffiti seen in the New York City subways and streets. Social turmoil ruled the United States in the 1970s, which gave rise to anti-establishment movements. Punk rock bands, such as Black Flag and Crass, and punk venues would stencil their names and logos across cities and became known as symbols to the punk scene.
