Dreamers and Donald Trump: Anti-Trump Street Art Along the US-Mexico Border Description What tools are at hand for residents living on the US-Mexico border to respond to mainstream news and presidential-driven narratives about immigrants, immigration, and the border region? How do citizen activists living far from the border contend with President Trump’s promises to “build the wall,” enact immigration bans, and deport the millions of undocumented immigrants living in the United States? How do situated, highly localized pieces of street art engage with new media to become creative and internationally resonant sites of defiance? CARGC Paper 11, “Dreamers and Donald Trump: Anti-Trump Street Art Along the US-Mexico Border,” answers these questions through a textual analysis of street art in the border region. Drawing on her Undergraduate Honors Thesis and fieldwork she conducted at border sites in Texas, California, and Mexico in early 2018, former CARGC Undergraduate Fellow Julia Becker takes stock of the political climate in the US and Mexico, examines Donald Trump’s rhetoric about immigration, and analyzes how street art situated at the border becomes a medium of protest in response to that rhetoric.

STONE has been approved for the Department of Geography and the College of Arts and Sciences by Geoffrey L. Buckley Professor of Geography Robert Frank Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 ABSTRACT STONE, MEREDITH K., M.A., August 2017, Geography Décor-racial: Defining and Understanding Street Art as it Relates to Racial Justice in Baltimore, Maryland Director of Thesis: Geoffrey L. Buckley Baltimore gained national attention in the spring of 2015 after Freddie Gray, a young black man, died while in police custody. This event sparked protests in Baltimore and other cities in the U.S. and soon became associated with the Black Lives Matter movement. One way to bring communities together, give voice to disenfranchised residents, and broadcast political and social justice messages is through street art. While it is difficult to define street art, let alone assess its impact, it is clear that many of the messages it communicates resonate with host communities. This paper investigates how street art is defined and promoted in Baltimore, how street art is used in Baltimore neighborhoods to resist oppression, and how Black Lives Matter is influencing street art in Baltimore.

Mural Mural on the Wall: Revisiting Fair Use of Street Art
UIC REVIEW OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY LAW MURAL MURAL ON THE WALL: REVISITING FAIR USE OF STREET ART MADYLAN YARC ABSTRACT Mural mural on the wall, what’s the fairest use of them all? Many corporations have taken advantage of public art to promote their own brand. Corporations commission graffiti advertising campaigns because they create a spectacle that gains traction on social media. The battle rages on between the independent artists who wish to protect the exclusive rights over their art, against the corporations who argue that the public art is fair game and digital advertising is fair use of art. The Eastern Market district of Detroit is home to the Murals in the Market Festival. In January 2018, Mercedes Benz obtained a permit from the City of Detroit to photograph its G 500 SUV in specific downtown areas. On January 26, 2018, Mercedes posted six of these photographs on its Instagram account. When Defendant-artists threatened to file suit, Mercedes removed the photos from Instagram as a courtesy. In March 2019, Mercedes filed three declaratory judgment actions against the artists for non-infringement. This Comment will analyze the claims for relief put forth in Mercedes’ complaint and evaluate Defendant-artists’ arguments. Ultimately, this Comment will propose how the court should rule in the pending litigation of MBUSA LLC v. Lewis.

The Writing on the Wall: Graffiti, Street Art, and a New Organic Urban Architecture Name: Isabella Siegel Faculty Adviser: Professor Laura Mcgrane
The Writing on the Wall: Graffiti, Street Art, and a New Organic Urban Architecture Name: Isabella Siegel Faculty Adviser: Professor Laura McGrane In the past half a century, graffiti and street art have grown from roots in Philadelphia to become a worldwide phenomenon. Graffiti is a method of self-expression and defiance that has mutated into new art forms that breach the status quo and gesture toward insurrection. Street art has evolved from such work, as a thriving tradition that works to articulate fears and hopes of a city’s inhabitants on the very buildings they live in. Street art, and graffiti as well, is a complex art form, especially when detangling issues of legality in the U.S. The language of “Organic Architecture” describes the way that the inhabitants of a built space work to determine what fills the empty spaces that remain. Graffiti and street art often constitute the materials with which these inhabitants build. Both genres are methods of expression of a personality, a frustration, or a window into the urban subconscious. These issues speak to Fine Arts and Art History majors, but also to those who study Political Science, History, Economics, Sociology, and Anthropology, and the Growth and Form of Cities. Art history is often used as a bridge into all of these topics, and the study of un-commissioned wall-art is no exception. The insurrectionist political nature of many pieces of street art, and much of graffiti as well, can be studied through the unique lens of someone with a background in political science.

The Unfamiliar in Modern Art: Street Art As a Model
International Journal of Innovation, Creativity and Change. www.ijicc.net Volume 12, Issue 10, 2020 The Unfamiliar in Modern Art: Street Art as a Model Rana Meery Mizala, Ibtisam Naji Kadhemb*, aBabylon University/ College of Fine Arts/ Department of Design, bBabylon University/ College of Fine Arts/ Department of Plastic Arts, Email: [email protected], b*[email protected] Contemporary art experiences, including street art, are a holistic phenomenon that works to capture everything that surrounds us socially and psychologically, and melts it in a simulation and study of reality as one of the environmental arts that seeks to beautify and preserve the environment. Thus, we always find it be dynamic, as it attracts the changes that afflict civilisation. We even find that the structure of contemporary conceptual art and environmental art has taken a path different from what was previously mentioned in their construction or completion. The later worked to involve the recipient in its construction by raising questions, leaving that to the recipient to mobilise his cognitive abilities to answer the proposals of the contemporary technical text. The true philosophical significance of the work of art is particularly evident in the face of the artist, for what it is in the world (absurdity or strange), and his rebellion only comes by imposing an organised artistic form on reality (Ibrahim, 2010). The criticism of reasonableness in all its varieties, the glorification of life and its elevations, and limitation to the unfamiliar in the implementation of artwork, lasts for hours and days throughout the perspective body to show the viewer that it is real and three- dimensional.

Marketing Urban Art: a Case Analysis of the Exchange Project
Marketing Urban Art: A Case Analysis of the Exchange Project Submitted in partial fulfillment of the Master of Science degree in Arts Administration Philip Asbury Candidate for Master’s in Arts Administration Drexel University June 2009 i Table of Contents Section Page Abstract i Problem Statement 1 Literature and Background 3 Definitions 7 Procedure 10 Limitations 10 Body-Marketing Urban Art: The Exchange Project 12 Figure1: List of Participating Artists 18 Case Study: The Exchange Project and Tour 19 Summary 29 Conclusion 33 Bibliography 36 ii Abstract The Exchange is an interactive project that promotes a sharing of stylistic influences amongst a select group of urban artists. The project is web-based but it also mounted a four city tour in 2007. As scholarly research is very limited in the genre, this study was an attempt to gather the few existing sources, general information, and first hand knowledge of the author, a participant in the Exchange. The result is a look at the best practices in marketing urban art. The financial details of the Exchange were unable to be included. The author recommends that urban artists partner with organizations that share a similar mission and to focus on viral marketing. i Problem Statement Urban art is a new genre of art that is still in its developing stages. Though the market for urban art is growing rapidly, how to market urban art work has largely gone unstudied and undocumented. This study will document the Exchange, a collaborative visual art project involving 13 international “urban artists”. In this process, special attention will be focused on the marketing tools and strategies employed by the Exchange as well as their effectiveness.

Lindsey Mancini Street Art's Conceptual Emergence
30 NUART JOURNAL 2019 VOLUME 1 NUMBER 2 30–35 GRAFFITI AS GIFT: STREET ART’S CONCEPTUAL EMERGENCE Lindsey Mancini Yale School of Art Drawing primarily on contemporary public discourse, this article aims to identify a divergence between graffiti and street art, and to establish street art as an independent art movement, the examples of which can be identified by an artist’s desire to create a work that offers value – a metric each viewer is invited to assess for themselves. While graffiti and street art are by no means mutually exclusive, street art fuses graffiti’s subversive reclamation of space with populist political leanings and the art historically- informed theoretical frameworks established by the Situationists and Dadaism. Based on two founding principles: community and ephemerality, street art is an attempt to create a space for visual expression outside of existing power structures, weaving it into the fabric of people’s daily lives. GRAFFITI AS GIFT 31 AN INTRODUCTION (AND DISCLAIMER) Hagia Sophia in Turkey; Napoleon's troops have been Attempting to define any aspect of street art or graffiti described as defacing the Sphinx in the eighteenth century; may seem an exercise in futility – for, as is the case with and during World War II, cartoons featuring a long-nosed most contemporary cultural contexts, how can we assess character alongside the words ‘Kilroy was here’, began something that is happening contemporaneously and appearing wherever U.S. servicemen were stationed (Ross, constantly evolving? – but the imperative to understand 2016: 480).

WUNDERLICH, MSC University of Glasgow Keywords Street art; museums; exhibition; open-air museum; Amsterdam Abstract Noteworthy museums in Europe and North America have organized international exhibitions that appropriated street art to display within a gallery space. This paper argues that the restrictive framework of the ‘white cube’ museum space is incompatible for the display of street art. As the museum redefines its role in our society and carefully crafts appropriate narratives around cultural objects, it must also rethink its presentation of artworks like street art. All cultures deserve to have their story told in their way, and their objects authentically displayed – including street art culture. Taken from a larger research project, this article considers the conceptual relationship between street art and the museum, and physical display of the artwork. Rather than forcing the art to conform to the museum, the strategies of the Street Art Museum of Amsterdam are highlighted to provide opportunities for the museum to reconsider its role in the presentation of street art.
