  • Alison Young Art and Belonging: on Place, Displacement And
    10 NUART JOURNAL 2019 VOLUME 1 NUMBER 2 10–19 ART AND BELONGING: ON PLACE, DISPLACEMENT AND PLACELESSNESS Alison Young University of Melbourne Street art is often talked about as contributing to a sense of place. Mural projects, festivals, and street artworks are said to foster feelings of belonging, recognition, and connection to a place. More than this, street art is increasingly used in place-branding and in commercial transactions. This article poses some questions about the implications of the way that street art relates to place and both makes and unmakes spaces of connection and disconnection. It will begin with the use of street artwork to sell property development, identifying this as a contemporary characteristic of the now well-known relationship between art and gentrification. As a counterpoint to the commercialisation of the sense of place generated by street art, it examines the work of artists such as Ian Strange, Francis Alÿs, and Stanislava Pinchuk, who make art located in displacement, dislocation, and dispossession. ART AND BELONGING 11 INTRODUCTION time, it did not take long for this apparent correlation to be Where does street art take place? Found in train converted into a belief that commissioned art interventions tunnels, abandoned buildings, warehouses, train carriages would have the same effect on markets. Mural projects, in railyards, alleyways, and on rooftops, street art has usually involving large-scale gable end murals painted with never been found only in the street.

  • 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.

  • Grafficity Visual Practices and Contestations in Urban Space
    EVA YOUKHANA AND LARISSA FÖRSTER (EDS.) GRAFFICITY Visual Practices and Contestations in Urban Space MORPHOMATA Graffiti has its roots in urban youth and protest cul- tures. However, in the past decades it has become an established visual art form. This volume investigates how graffiti oscillates between genuine subversiveness and a more recent commercialization and appropria- tion by the (art) market. At the same time it looks at how graffiti and street art are increasingly used as an instrument for collective re-appropriation of the urban space and so for the articulation of different forms of belonging, ethnicity, and citizenship. The focus is set on the role of graffiti in metropolitan contexts in the Spanish-speaking world but also includes glimpses of historical inscriptions in ancient Rome and Meso- america, as well as the graffiti movement in New York in the 1970s and in Egypt during the Arab Spring.

  • Reading the Walls in Bogotá: Imaginaries of Violence in the Urban Visual Landscape
    Reading the Walls in Bogotá: Imaginaries of Violence in the Urban Visual Landscape Alba Griffin School of Modern Languages Newcastle University Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy July 2019 Abstract This thesis examines urban imaginaries of violence in Bogotá, Colombia, through the lens of graffiti and street art. Signs of these aesthetic practices are abundant in the city, and my research brings together a range of subcultures, styles, motivations and messages to highlight the role of the urban visual landscape as a site through which imaginaries of violence are critiqued, negotiated and (re)produced. Informed by an ethnographic approach, the analysis focuses on the meanings attached to graffiti and street art in different areas of the city, collected through interviews and focus groups with their creators and the wider public. The thesis is structured around three case studies, which present some of the key contemporary trends in graffiti and street art in Bogotá. In the first, the dynamics of graffiti and street art on Calle 26 reveal competing ways of seeing political violence and diverse expectations of peace through the representation of memories of violence. In the second case study, the process of beautification is used to counteract the stigma attached to vulnerable neighbourhoods in Ciudad Bolívar and La Perseverancia, but it is hampered by the realities of structural and direct violence. Finally, in La Candelaria, attitudes to graffiti and street art are entangled in aesthetic hierarchies that reflect social hierarchies, which underscores the structural inequalities embedded in public space. The socio-spatial context informs the practices and imaginaries in, and of, these different places, and serves to highlight the heterogeneity of urban social groups and their diverse claims to space.
