La cultura directiva como experiencia topoanalítica desde mi pensar como sujeto maya ch´ol
Authors: López Eleazar Jiménez
Published: January 2025

El presente ensayo tiene la peculiaridad en bosquejar la singular relación entre la experiencia y acontecimiento. Un trabajo analítico que intenta recuperar la experiencia directiva a partir de un ejercicio topoanalítico desde mi pensar maya ch´ol y castellano. Se hace el planteamiento de interés de búsqueda y se ofrece una recuperación de subjetividad desde la experiencia vivida en la función directiva de centros educativos de educación básica. Una posibilidad de grieta ante lo que se plantea como metarrelato lo que pudiera entenderse como liderazgo y como en otros contextos “las habas de cocinan diferente”; ante tal pretensión, se concluye que el lenguaje constituye al sujeto.
Es un texto que dentro de su cuerpo se plantean preguntas buscando respuestas desde la institución y autoridad y en ese proceso de indagación el sujeto que reaprende esta presente como efecto de lo dicho y lo que se dice en la oralidad y palabra escrita. Se ha trazado un camino inconcluso que merece seguirse pensando y recuperar el papel protagónico como sujeto que piensa y se transforma desde el autoestudio escambroso de subjetividad.
Pedagogía Crítica, Ética del Cuidado y Justicia Restaurativa
Authors: Nieto Angel Maria Carolina
Published: January 2025

En este artículo analizo los resultados de un programa de formación para docentes llamado Cultura de Cuidado y Justicia Restaurativa en Contextos Escolares. Conceptualmente el programa se basó en la ética del cuidado, la pedagogía crítica, y el enfoque de la justicia restaurativa. Los datos se recopilaron en forma de narrativas, encuestas, y grupos focales, y fueron analizados a partir de las tipologías de rutinas, relaciones, responsabilidad y respeto que son cualidades de una Cultura de Cuidado en el colegio. El artículo se enfoca en las docentes y en cómo, durante su paso por el programa, despertaron a un posicionamiento crítico que las llevó a distanciarse de la educación bancaria, al tiempo que construían un sentido de sí como cuidadoras-educadoras críticas. Con base en el análisis se recomienda apoyar el potencial de docentes y estudiantes para co-construir-se desde el cuidado, la reciprocidad y la libertad.

Proses Perbaikan Over Clearance pada Sleeve Bearing Steam Turbine Menggunakan TIG Babbit
Authors: Yani Endri , Gusriwandi
Published: January 2025

A sleeve bearing is a machine element that supports a shaft with a load, allowing the shaft's rotation or reciprocating motion to occur smoothly, safely, and with a long lifespan. Sleeve bearings also function to keep the shaft in the correct position, ensuring that the rotational motion of the shaft experiences minimal friction.
Overclearance in bearings occurred due to friction and extended operational time, which degraded the bearing's performance. In this study, three stages of maintenance and repair were performed to restore the bearing's function to its original state: as received, repair process, and final process.
From the inspection conducted, it was concluded that to restore the bearing's performance, several key steps were necessary: TIG Babbit, non-destructive testing, and machining processes to smooth the surface resulting from the TIG Babbit process.

Published: January 2025

A patients with Grave Ophthalmopathy who underwent orbital decompression surgery involving two walls, medial and lateral. The surgery was performed in collaboration with an ENT specialist. This case report described a patient who presented with Thyroid Eye Disease NOSPEC V. It has been reported that a 35-year-old male had complained of bilateral proptosis, decreased visual acuity, and eye pain. The patient had been diagnosed with hyperthyroid 1 year before coming to the eye clinic. The patient was given a peribulbar steroid injection, but no improvement was observed. Visual acuity of the right eye was 3/60 and the left eye was 1/60. Lagophthalmos were seen on both eyes, 6mm in the right and 4mm in the left. The cornea of the right eye had infiltrated due to exposure keratitis. Proper eye movement was restricted to superonasal. The patient underwent medial and lateral orbital wall decompression of the left eye. Left eye visual acuity was improved to 20/150. Lagophthalmos was improved up to 3 mm. Medial and lateral orbital wall decompression are minimally invasive procedures involving removing a small portion of the bone from either the medial or lateral wall of the orbit. This allows more space for the eye to move backward, reducing pressure on the optic nerve and improving vision. This procedure also improves the cosmetic appearance of the eye. The ophthalmologic specialist performed the lateral wall decompression, and the ENT specialist performed the medial wall decompression. Medial and lateral orbital wall decompression has proven to be effective in treating patients with proptosis. The procedures have a low complication rate, and patients typically experience a significant improvement in their symptoms within a few weeks of the surgery.

Wastewater-based genomic surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 in vulnerable communities in Mumbai
Authors: Kadam Pratibha Prakash , Mestry Tejal , Mistry Nerges , Nilgiriwala Kayzad Soli
Published: January 2025

Background & objectives

The global impact of COVID-19, with over 45 million cases and 533,300 deaths in India alone, necessitates effective surveillance methods. Traditional approaches face challenges in detecting pre-symptomatic and asymptomatic cases, prompting the exploration of wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE). This study focuses on Mumbai’s vulnerable slums, aiming to assess the potential of WBE as an alternative surveillance method.

Methods

Genomic surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 was conducted in Mumbai’s vulnerable settings (slums) for 11 months (August 2022 to June 2023). Wastewater samples from open drains and sewage treatment plants were correlated with reported COVID-19 cases in the city. Early detection of emerging viral variants and seasonal variations in viral load were explored.

Results

Correlations were identified between wastewater samples and reported COVID-19 cases in Mumbai’s vulnerable slums, with early detection occurring three weeks before clinical diagnoses, underscoring the potential utility of WBE. Genomic sequencing provided insights into the viral variants, identifying shifts in predominant variants. Seasonal variations showed higher viral concentrations in summer and monsoon, potentially associated with accelerated droplet evaporation in early summer and droplet-based transmission during mid-summer and monsoon.

Interpretation & conclusions

Wastewater-based epidemiology emerges as a cost-effective and rapid early warning system, providing crucial insights into virus behaviour and evolution. Particularly significant for countries like India, WBE aids in outbreak monitoring and targeted interventions. The global integration of wastewater surveillance emphasizes its importance in comprehensive pandemic monitoring, establishing it as an integral component of public health strategies worldwide.
A sequential occurrence of neurocysticercosis and concomitant benign and malignant brain lesions: A case report of a 43-year-old Indian male
Authors: Dhar Anil , Singh Hershdeep , Dua Sanjeev , Kaur Harneet , Goel Amitabh , Ambastha Rooma
Published: January 2025

Background:

The occurrence of multiple brain tumors of different cellular origins in a single individual is extremely rare. There is limited documentation regarding the incidence of intracranial neoplasms in individuals with preexisting neurocysticercosis (NCC).

Case Description:

We report the case of a 43-year-old male who had been under our care since he first suffered from seizures 2½ years ago when he was diagnosed with NCC. A year after the diagnosis of NCC, he presented to the emergency room with seizures, when he was found to have a new small left frontal meningioma, which was managed conservatively. In the next year, the patient was admitted to the emergency room in a disoriented state, and his imaging revealed a new lesion – a left frontal glioma, for which he was operated. Six months later, another glioma was found in the right frontal region, which was excised surgically. Four months after the second surgery, the patient was brought with intractable seizures when he was diagnosed with cerebrospinal fluid spread of NCC. During this admission, the patient expired due to a pulmonary infection.

Conclusion:

This case report presents the sequential occurrence of neurocysticercosis, meningioma, and glioma in an Indian male patient. The occurrence of NCC with brain tumors is rarely reported in the literature; further research is needed to understand the occurrence of multiple brain tumors, especially in the setting of preexisting NCC.

Graffiti, Street Art and Murals Against the Neoliberal City
Authors: Abram Sandi
Published: January 2025

The text explores graffiti, street art, and murals in the context of the neoliberal city, highlighting the transformation of these forms in the context of growing commodification, touristification and gentrification of urban space. Through an ethnographic research in Ljubljana (Slovenia), the study illuminates the wall-written dissensus against the current production of abstract space. Special attention is given to the visual transformation in autonomous zones, especially how squatter communities, and in particular an anarcha queer feminist group, use graffiti and street art as media for voicing radical activism, while relying on collective muralism to build a political community. The paper argues for a nuanced understanding of the role of graffiti, street art and murals in the context of the neoliberal city and within social movements, emphasizing the multi-layered nature of political graffiti and street art as a form of radical political activism.
Reconstruct the Memory of Roman Space
Authors: Xie Fang , Lyu Dongye
Published: January 2025

Throughout history, the interplay between cinema and urban environments has played a pivotal role in both reflecting and influencing perceptions of cities and their development. In cinematic narratives, cities often transcend mere backdrops, assuming central roles rich in symbolic meaning, which underscores the significance of urban spaces in shaping cultural narratives. Starting from the films directed by the famous Italian director Federico Fellini, this paper focuses on the process of reproducing the urban space of Rome and organizes the Fellini-style imagination about the Roman space by combing the construction and expression of the Roman city in the films. The study finds that Fellini symbolizes the Roman space with the help of images, realizes the re-creation of the urban space of Rome, and enriches, stimulates and passes on the various cultural memories of the Roman space. At the same time, the study concludes that the film's retelling of the memory of Roman space is based on director Fellini's imagination, and it is a unique narrative system of urban images created by integrating history and reality, and it is the result of the joint effect of the iteration of urban time and space and the integration of film narrative.
Exploring the Intersection of Film, City, and Tourism
Authors: Matarín Rodríguez-Peral Eva , Gómez-Franco Tomás , Taborda-Hernández Ernesto
Published: January 2025

Tourism is a social phenomenon that has global economic impact. Similarly, cinema has the ability to influence tourism through its representation of different spaces and cities. This representation shapes the public’s perception of these places, making them potential tourist destinations. Cinema can transform unfamiliar spaces into new attractions, whether through romantic narratives or by showcasing locations and scenes that subsequently inspire the audience to recreate them, feeling like protagonists in their own stories. Given its potential impact on tourism, this research poses the following question: What are the key aspects addressed by academic studies that explore the interaction between film, city, and tourism? The objective is to highlight trends in academic research related to the relationship between film, city, and tourism, as well as to explore the various theoretical and methodological perspectives used. This investigation is conducted through a systematic literature review, demonstrating the effects of city representation in cinema on the promotion of prominent tourist destinations. Among the main contributions is the portrayal of the city as a tourist space depicted in film based on the studied scientific literature, along with the opportunity to identify existing knowledge gaps in this field.
From Streets to Screens
Authors: Farrugia Carla
Published: January 2025

What is the relationship between city and film? This relationship is crucial to the 1920s and 1930s city symphonies. Recent scholarship confirms that these films form a distinct genre due to their relation with the city. This article argues that to better understand the relation between city and film, including in the city symphony genre, we need to explore in more detail those specific aspects of the city that become entangled with film. I ask: in which ways is the medium of film entangled with the lived experience of the city, more specifically to the history of the material reality of city streets? Paris’ transformation by Haussmann in the mid-19th century serves as the defining moment that changed the lived experience of Parisian city dwellers. Walter Benjamin notices how this change to urbanity impacted art as manifested in Charles Baudelaire's poetry. Expanding on this idea, I turn my attention to film and explore the ways in which it responded to the changed streets of Paris through its medium. Alberto Cavalcanti’s Rien Que les Heures (1926), a Paris city symphony, is key. Jean-Luc Godard’s À Bout de Souffle (1960) is a later point in the history of film's entanglement with Parisian streets. By looking more closely at how the cinematic medium integrates into its mechanism the space-time of city streets, this article offers further insights on the relationship between art and street, here more specifically between film in relation to the fate of the streets in Paris. We do not need to watch films about the city to experience it, in many ways the medium of film itself integrated and paralleled the experience of the city and its modern urban streets. Based on this, if the city symphony is indeed a film genre based on its distinctive relationship to the city, it compels ‘genre’ to engage medium among its formal parameters.
Towards the scholarly documentation of street art
Authors: Iglesia Martin de la
Published: January 2025

It is generally acknowledged that street art is a particularly ephemeral art. For instance, graffiti are usually actively removed, thus existing for sometimes only a few days. Otherwise, they deteriorate gradually due to the effects of the weather, or are eventually ‘crossed’ by other graffiti, so that they are visible for a few years at best. Therefore, the documentation of street art should be of paramount importance to researchers. In fact, a lot of photography is being carried out ostensibly to document street art, for both image databases on the Internet as well as printed books and magazines. However, for the most part, this kind of street art photography is not done by (or for) scholars but rather by (and for) the general public. In any case, this practice usually does not fulfill even the lowest scholarly standards of documentation. One can be considered lucky to find any metadata for such pictures – for example, the artist’s name, an approximate location (usually on a city or district level), or the date on which the picture was taken, if at all. Furthermore, the selection of photographed works is highly biased due to the personal tastes of the photographers or the accessibility of the work. In order for street art documentation to be useful for research, providing further data is necessary, such as a more precise location, references to other instances of the same work, and the dimensions of the work. In this article, the current inadequate state of documentation in street art research is surveyed, and a model for the online documentation of stencil graffiti is presented that demonstrates the feasibility of some of these requirements.
Derwanz, H., 2013. Street Artists.
Authors: Glaser Katja
Published: January 2025

In her book “Street Artists. Careers on the Art and Design Markets” Heike Derwanz traces back the careers of three different street artists: Banksy, Shepard Fairey and No Logo/Jens Besser. She addresses questions of self-professionalization and conceptualizes street art as both an art historical and social phenomenon. She asks: How do careers of street artists evolve and under which circumstances are they successful? By outlining a transnational network of the so called ‘street art world’ she finally discusses the phenomenon on the basis of four different social spaces: the street, the media, and the art and design market.
From squares to walls
Authors: Elias Helena
Published: January 2025

Recently there has been a resurgence of murals in several European and American cities. Street art visual practices have privileged murals as one of the most suitable formats to address public spaces. Despite the increasing recognition and significance of murals for the visual culture of these cities, this contemporary urban art practice has not received much attention from recent literature. This paper provides a literature review on contemporary murals, giving an account of their popularity, their relation to location-specificity and global presence, as well as the means of dissemination of such art expression. The study will then focus on a set of case studies in Lisbon, regarding the paradigmatic shift from sculpture commissioning to mural commissioning within Portuguese Brazilian cultural relationships. The works of OSGEMEOS, Bicicleta sem Freio and Nunca will be discussed in this framework, questioning what the contributions of contemporary mural works might be for the public spaces of the city.
OSGEMEOS and the Institutionalization of Street Art:
Authors: Kuttner Theodore
Published: January 2025

When discussing the paradox of displacing the street art aesthetic, i.e. commissioning street artists to create work for art galleries, museums, or public murals, one inevitably has to address issues of co-opting, appropriation, and the institutionalization of a movement that began as a countercultural form of expression. Two commissioned pieces by OSGEMEOS are used as a case study. This paper parses through the discourse surrounding their production and removal. The goal therein is to break down these narratives and gain insight into the mechanisms at work and the inherent contradictions in the process of institutionalizing street art.
Surveying New Muralism in Italy:
Authors: Caffio Giovanni
Published: January 2025

The phenomenon of urban art is one of the forces shaping contemporary urban spaces. Historically fought as vandalism in its “writing” component (the “black sheep” of the urban actors performing in the contemporary city), urban art has recently become more appreciated as an artistic expression, especially when regarded as a stage in the historical evolution of muralism. As several examples worldwide have shown, in the context of urban renewal, urban art can set off positive dynamics. Focusing on the Italian scene, I recognize the importance of past Italian interventions realized both in big cities, such as Rome, Turin and Bologna, and in small cities, such as Grottaglie (Taranto), Gaeta (Latina), Catanzaro, and Dozza (Bologna). In addition, the growing number of urban art festivals and public interventions seems to voice the citizens’ will to take the streets back, particularly where institutions are unable to intervene effectively in the urban domain due to political short-sightedness or lack of financial resources. The first aim of this paper is to illustrate and analyze some collective projects and informal actions through which citizens, associations, and institutions have given added value to the urban space. I will focus particularly on Turin, which has become one of the most interesting and rich urban art territories, thanks to public projects such as Murarte, Picturin, Nizzart and B.Art: Arte in Barriera. This study offers insights on how, by way of artistic deeds and apparently “weak” transformation systems, urban art may take innovative action so as to regenerate the city’s architectural heritage. The second aim of this paper is to propose a methodology for architectural surveying techniques applied to urban art. isIn current critical analysis, as well as in the representation and documentation of this type of work, the fundamental importance of the physical, architectural and urban environment in which the work is placed is often overlooked, if not completely omitted. In acknowledgment of these limitations, this paper proposes a documentation methodology that respects both the values of the process and the work itself. In this regard, painted walls must be considered as inseparable from the space in which they are located, from the material substrate supporting them, and from the time conditions in which they were realized. The process of examination and documentation therefore requires observation in situ, new digital and traditional survey techniques, and a variety of representations at different scales; with a view to understanding the reasons that led to the selection of a particular place in the city, and the way in which artistic action arises in relation to the historical environment and the social and political system that influenced its creation.
Street Art: Visual scenes and the digital circulation of images
Authors: Zahar Hela , Roberge Jonathan
Published: January 2025

Street art is introduced as a global visual scene that is local, trans-local, and digital, as well as a practice that often expresses various tensions of the visibility regimes in which it exists. This study specifically focuses on Arab-occidental expressions of street art in three locations: Paris (France), Djerba (Tunisia), and Montreal (Canada). The visibility regimes of these visual scenes are physical (Arabic and Occidental), but significantly they are also digital (found on social media, web sites, blogs etc.). The concepts of “visual practices,” and more specifically “image practices” (pratiques de l’image), are used to study the spatio-temporal and digital evolution of street art to ascertain the changing nature of these visual scenes, in their specific stagings, as they reflect Arab-Occidental encounters.
Routledge Handbook of Graffiti and Street Art – Book Review
Authors: Neves Pedro Soares
Published: January 2025

This review is of the Routledge Handbook of Graffiti and Street Art, included in the Routledge International Handbooks collection. Published in 2016, this book will be of great interest to Graffiti and Street Art scholars. This publication is of significant importance in a context were there is so much to share and understand about the phenomena of graffiti and street art. The shared common goals of the Routledge Handbook of Graffiti and Street Art with the Urbancreativity research network (which promotes associated conferences and the Street Art & Urban Creativity Scientific Journal – where I’m personally dedicated as a member of the Executive Committee and as Editor) made me propose the present review. The structure of the review mirrors the structure of the book, with forewords, introductions, and four thematic parts. It also includes a prelude where the quantitative facts are presented – the number of chapters, authors, scientific fields represented, nationalities of the authors and case studies, among others. This review regards the book as an element integrated in a culture of research that is being formed. It analyzes the significance that it represents to the Graffiti and Street Art fields of study, but also how it can influence authorial or management practices. There are some omissions to this review regarding the relation of the book within the publishing realm as, for example, I do not analyze how it is related with other titles of the same collection. As a general review that did not want to be partial, there were some concessions to be made – more emphasis is given to the introduction of the book and for each section, and to the overall considerations, balances, coverage, and generic ingredients than to any specific chapter or contributor, topic or approach, this way avoiding individual exclusions or emphases. The approach was developed in the most analytic way possible, whilst trying to exclude as many personal influences as possible in the review process (as it should be). Some consultations with other researchers were also made as a way of gaining other perspectives and to refresh my individual interpretations. This review also tries to provide the necessary information for researchers that want or need to know more about the content, generic approach and character of this publication.

Historical dissemination of graffiti art
Authors: Novak David
Published: January 2025

Historical analysis is performed on the five decades old urban phenomenon represented in “graffiti art”. The article first traces the dissemination of graffiti art from New York City to the Western world in the 1980s. Individual dissemination channels represented in gallery exhibitions, cultural media and interpersonal contact are highlighted. Further, the dissemination of graffiti art in the 1990s to Central and Eastern Europe is demonstrated on the case of Czechoslovakia. Finally, the article summarises information on the dissemination of graffiti art to the rest of the world. It is argued that the production of graffiti art works on exteriors of trains became an orthodox tradition of the graffiti art culture in the 1970s and disseminated together with graffiti art forms average scales to other areas of the world. A diagram representing the Origins, Dissemination Channels and Other Conditions relating to the spread of graffiti art is presented.
The wall is dead, short live graffiti and street art!
Authors: Pinto Sofia
Published: January 2025

This article addresses some of the challenges faced by heritagization related to graffiti and street art, namely the changes in context and temporality that this process entails. In order to discuss these issues, I will frame the Berlin Wall as a paradigmatic case that presents a trajectory in time: I will follow the transition of the Wall from a deadly frontier to an obsolete structure and, finally, to a historic monument. I will argue that graffiti and street art are context-specific, and deeply affected by the symbolism and/or functions of the surface on which they are inscribed. Moreover, I will recognize graffiti and street art as practices situated in between tangible and intangible heritage. Particularly with the Berlin Wall, and in regard to the preservation of memory and heritage, I will suggest that graffiti and street art do not always enter the institutional circuit, especially when illegal and anonymous.
Curating urban memories in connecting communities
Authors: Doğu Tuba , Sönmez Sevcan
Published: January 2025

There is a worldwide growing attention on user participation in shaping urban environments in recent years. With the involvement of local authorities, civil initiatives and neighborhood organizations, it is possible to observe a similar attention in the formation of urban spaces in Turkey. Driven from this approach, this study examines the bottom-up transformation of a cultural space existing since 1960s in Izmir, Güzelyalı. To reveal the process of how civic empowerment operated, we simulate a remembering process and curate the process in order to make things visible. The process examines an urban installation to reveal narratives behind collective action through reading collective memory. The scope is to re-read the past in the present in order to generate new processes of civic engagement, and thus actions, in urban spaces.
From ‘either/or’ to ‘both/and’:
Authors: Glaser Katja
Published: January 2025

The institutionalization of street art and graffiti has been discussed a thousand times. My article takes the next step and asks: Are we not simply in charge of reevaluating the ‘interventions’ happening outdoors, be they commissioned or not, and integrating them into (fine art) shows, exhibitions and museum collections – with no attempt to plexiglass? The long-term perspective might be an equal treatment of commissioned and uncommissioned artworks, as well as the appreciation and self-confident exposition of their direct and unambiguous linkage. This article includes interviews with Pietro Rivasi (Italy) and Robert Kaltenhäuser (Germany) and refers to the ‘BLU controversy’ in Bologna, Italy. The text was written with regard to an exhibition that took place in Herne, Germany, where I contributed as a curatorial and scientific assistant.
Creative city practices in the Lusophone space
Authors: Murányi Kata
Published: January 2025

The purpose of this paper is to discuss the creative city, and thus urban creativity in the Portuguese-speaking world, through eight in-depth interviews with leading figures of creative city practices in São Paulo and Lisbon. Both cities share a common language, similarities in history and culture, and in recent years they have been facing serious economic, political and social problems. Over the last few decades, various initiatives have been created with aims of involving and collaborating with locals in order to directly influence the quality of urban life. This research explores how changes in power and political and economic circumstances influence both the city and the lives of locals. I examine how specific bottom-up initiatives address various problems in society; I assess the best practices of urban creativity and how current problems and solutions arise in a contemporary metropolis. The research is based on study trips to São Paulo and Lisbon in 2016 where a number of interviews were conducted with representatives active in innovative creative economy organizations, routinely providing solutions to the needs of people in urban public spaces.
Artscaping in public places:
Authors: Helmy Mona
Published: January 2025

This paper argues that urban art is an inclusive conception to contemporary placemaking, which has contributed significantly to (re)shaping the notion of public places in unprecedented dimension, perception, and scale. The concept of urban art implies an inclusive approach to public art, urban life and the public realm. Following the notion “the whole is greater than the sum of the parts”, the emerging design trends attempt to (re)present public places as a comprehensive synthesis and interactive form of urban art combining elements of temporary and permanent, form and space, static and dynamic, active and passive, effects and impressions. This process has greatly transformed not only the way of making and/or remaking places, but it also extends to new horizons of perceiving, and interacting of both public space and the public arts by users in their tangible and intangible terms. The paper examines the case of Jeddah, the city of Arts; a case that has transformed the city into an extensive outdoor art museum, through a broad range of urban artworks, including works of many international artists and sculptors. The paper explores the (re)making process of Jeddah’s public places under modern interpretations of aesthetical artistic values, where qualities of excitement, livability, vibrancy, and spectacularism are manifested in the city’s placemaking process. The paper attempts to build on some future directions for urban artscaping as a new perspective for understanding, interpreting and (re)making city spaces.
Marketing with graffiti:
Authors: Jacobson Malcolm
Published: January 2025

Graffiti is extensively used within marketing. Products such as cars, sodas, and clothes are fueled with the symbolic capital of illegal graffiti. Graffiti artists transform settings such as hotels, bars and boutiques into daring experiences. Building on ethnographic observations and interviews in Sweden, this article shows that graffiti artists and commercial companies cooperate in maintaining a narrative where graffiti is presented as essentially illegal. This narrative enables graffiti writers to exchange symbolic capital for economic capital and preserve their identity as authentic graffiti writers. The idea that subcultures are distinct from, and thus compromised, when appropriated by the mainstream is questioned. Instead it is established that graffiti artists adopt a pragmatic perspective towards commercial work.
Curating street art
Authors: Abarca Javier
Published: January 2025

After being largely ignored for decades, street art has in the last ten years been increasingly assimilated by society and the art system. Numerous artists who started their careers producing street work on their own initiative and without seeking permission are now being commissioned to create official public art – mostly murals – and pieces for galleries, museums and collections. This paper looks at the differences between producing art in public space without permission and producing art for the gallery, and at the possible approaches to the commission of gallery artworks related to the street practice of an artist. It ends with an analysis of the problems and possibilities of commissioning pieces to be produced in the street without permission.
