Street artists work with all kinds of material using aerosols, acrylic, mosaic, stickers, posters, chalk, stencils and a few are now household names such as Banksy, Mr. Brainwash, Shepard Fairey, D*Face, Invader and Blek le Rat. Street artists wish to create a space of observation and reflexion, to form a bond between themselves, the city and the viewer, to entertain if only for a short while by offering a poetic or critical take on the world we live in. We are constantly bombarded with images of a commercial nature and it is somewhat refreshing and inspiring to occasionally stumble upon a great piece of art where least expected. Increasing interest and demand have encouraged auction houses to dedicate a section of their contemporary sales to street art and have seen some pieces fetch incredible prices. More and more galleries specialise in this art form and, in 2008, Tate Modern asked six street artists to create works on the building’s famous river facade. That street art has become part of our daily lives is undeniable. Celebrities and brands have realised just how popular the style has become, jumped on the band wagon and commissioned works by different artists to promote their products or campaigns. Thus Shepard Fairey gained international recognition when he created the HOPE poster for Barack Obama’s 2008 campaign and in 2010 Madonna entrusted Mr. Brainwash with the design of her album cover. There are many debates in the art world revolving around the relevance of street art in the art market, one of the main concerns being: can art still be qualified as street if it is removed from its original location and taken out of context? Indeed the meaning of a piece of street art depends of course on its form and content but even more so on its location. For example, Banksy's painting of a white dove wearing a bullet proof vest would not have the same impact had it not been painted on a bullet riddled wall in Palestine. And the same goes for Vexta's "Welcome to Australia" which she painted on a warehouse door in Melbourne’s docklands: showing an intimidating line of policemen, the work clearly criticised the strict immigration policies of the artist’s country. Yet other artists believe that creating street art legally still makes sense. It further means that they can make a living from it and thus more and more artists are adapting to the consumer art market. Many have adopted canvas as a support, meaning that they can exhibit their works in galleries, while others refuse to restrict their audience, being keen to reach out to as many people as possible in the streets. Those who criticise the consumerist nature of society are against taking their work off the streets and naturally want it to remain free and accessible to all. Some artists actually wish for the concept to remain illegal arguing that it fuels their work with excitement, energy and mystery. Street artists are fully aware that their creations might not stand the test of time: they risk being covered by the work of other artists, destroyed by local authorities or damaged by poor weather conditions. However, generally their aim is not to create a long-lasting work but to stir our imagination, provoke thought and surprise us. The artist Mosstika creates even more ephemeral pieces and takes Land Art by the likes of Andy Goldsworthy to the next level. Her creations are made of natural elements such as moss and placed around the city as a reminder of the natural world which lies beyond the city walls. Despite the unprecedented nature and spirit of street art, its goals as an artistic movement run parallel to almost all emerging and avant-garde movements of the past. During the mid-nineteenth century in France, the Realists shocked the Academics by replacing ideological imagery glorifying Emperor Napoleon with that of daily life and in turn the Impressionists progressed Realism by increasing the fluidity of the brush stroke, empowering the use of colour, and debunking the idea concrete subject matter altogether. As spectators of the 21st century, we find ourselves confronted with images, content and techniques that may make us uncomfortable yet we must recognize that this sense of discomfort finds its roots in the unfamiliarity of such images, content, and techniques. As a modern society, we should not fear such changes but look forward and embrace them. 1 MR.

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.

    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.

O júri Presidente: Doutor Maria Emília Capucho Duarte Professora Auxiliar do Institudo de Arte, Desing e Empresa Vogais: Doutora Maria da Graça Pinti Ribeiro Guedes Professora Auxiliar da Universidade do Minho. Doutora Maria Theresa Figueiredo Beco de Lobo Professora Associada com Agrecaçao do Instituto de Arte, Design e Empresa ABSTRACT Street art can often be a mirror of society. It is one of the most important tools to express the economic, political and social conditions of society. Many people’s ideas can merge and recombine on the city walls, and as a result, they can become more than they were as separate ideas. With this in mind, the basis of this research was the role of street art in protests and the relationship between street art and society. By examining the Carnation Revolution in Lisbon and the Gezi Park protest in Istanbul, we recognize the importance of street art in these changing times. While those two movements are separated by many years of time, they demonstrate that the overall feelings about protest have remained the same in many ways. One of those ways is their use of street art for political purposes.

    The Journal of Public Space ISSN 2206-9658 2018 | Vol. 3 n. 2 https://www.journalpublicspace.org EDITORIAL The Public Voice Maggie McCormick Adjunct Professor, RMIT University, Australia Professor, Reutlingen University, Germany [email protected] SPACE Abstract The Public Voice discusses art and activism in public space through the lens of how art PUBLIC practice is re-territoralising public space. The article begins with a consideration of both commissioned and uncommissioned works that challenge male dominance of public space OF while retaining a traditional relationship between the artist, art and the public. Through a discussion of ‘relational’ public practices from Relational Aesthetic to Community Art to Social Engagement, the article argues that the kind of ‘relational’ art and activism undertaken by the collectives, teams and individuals featured in this issue of The Journal of Public Space is linked by spatial practice as a conduit for social change. By framing their JOURNAL practice through a discussion around her own spatial public practice over time, the author emphasises the impact of urbanisation and digitalisation on the changing nature of THE public space and the public and how the public voice can be mapped through art and activism.

  • Women on Walls AB 16358935 FINAL
    Women on Walls | Engaging street art through the eyes of female artists Alix Maria Beattie Master of Research Thesis Western Sydney University 2017 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First and foremost, I am truly thankful for the support and guidance of my supervisory panel, Dr Rachel Bentley and Professor Lynette Sheridan-Burns. In particular, my primary supervisor Rachel, who not only guided me through my research but offered an endless amount of support, critical engagement and general brainstorming driven by a love of street art. Lynette’s experience, words of encouragement and sharp red pen provided me with the right advice at the right time. I am also thankful to my artists: Mini Graff, Kaff-eine, Buttons, Vexta and Baby Guerrilla. They were generous in their time, thoughts, art, and passion. This work is only possible because of them. To all my lecturers throughout my Master of Research journey – particular Dr Jack Tsonis and Dr Alex Norman – who were tireless in their efforts, helping me become the writer and researcher I am today. Likewise, I want to thank Dominique Spice for creating such a supportive environment for all of us MRes students. To my fellow MRes students - Toshi and in particular Lucie and Beth (aka the awesome clams) – you are all, without doubt the best part of completing this research. Awesome clams, you provided continuous support and good humour –I truly thank you both. Finally, to my friends and family who have been relentless in their support via texts and calls – you know who you are and I am eternally grateful. A special mention and thank you to my wonderful sister Clasina and great friend Tanya, who did a final read through of my thesis.

  • Street Art – Legally Speaking
    Legally Speaking: Street Art Intellectual property lawyer, Sharon Givoni, spends a vast amount of time working with professional photographers. While most cases involve the photographer taking legal action, they can also easily find themselves as the defendant. One example is when photographing street art, and Sharon has kindly taken the time to discuss this area of law. Street art has gained credibility as a legitimate way for artists to communicate their works to the public outside of the confines of the mainstream art world. The art takes various forms, ranging from bright alleyways to large-scale murals, sanctioned and unsanctioned alike. ‘More than ever before, photographers are an essential part of this scene,’ Lou Chamberlin wrote in her book, Street Art This photograph taken by Melbourne. ‘Known as paint spotters, they spend their spare Chris Scott shows graffiti in time chasing and documenting new pieces as soon as they an incidental fashion go up.’ A consequence of this, however, is the raft of legal issues that could potentially arise for photographers of street art. Imagine the following scenarios: – You photograph street art and reproduce it on a canvas with other images that you superimposed to create ‘art’ which you sell at a gallery. You are then surprised to receive a letter of demand from the street artist’s lawyer claiming a share of the sale. – You conduct a shoot for a magazine in an alleyway in Melbourne. In the background of the shot is some street art. Will publishing the photographs be an infringement of copyright? What if it is impossible to determine who created the art? – You take photographs of street art, frame and sell them.
