Street Art and Architecture

Abstract

The paper explores both the areas of conflict as well as agreement between architecture and Street Art. The conflict arises from the fact that urban environment has always been a background for street art, which unavoidably jeopardizes the conceptual integrity of the building understood as a work of architecture. However, there are strong interrelations between these two domains of human creativity. Both street art and architecture are deeply rooted in 60. anarchy movements, both are used as means of achieving peculiar qualities of public spaces, emphasize their temporality, experiential values and social dimension. As such both may contribute to the quality of urban landscape, however a careful re-definitions are needed and new realms of imagining forms of street art should be open.
