If I say Street Art, what comes to your mind?
Graffiti.
I’m sure that many of you didn’t take long to associate these two terms.
For several years now, Street Art has invaded walls and public spaces, becoming a real socio-cultural phenomenon. People tend to consider more its illegal aspect than its artistic nature, but behind those touches of color, there is definitely a clear message.
It’s a fact, some artists prefer the walls to the canvas!
Yes, but why?
When I started to document myself about these forms of expression, I obviously look for the greatest artists who made Street Art the phenomenon everybody knows today and, of course, I found him. Probably the most famous one.
I’m talking about Banksy, of course.
