Embodied graffiti and street art research
2021
Graffiti and street art research (GSAR) has become more acknowledged within the academic discourse; however, it has much to gain from theorising its methodological aspects. As a multidisciplinary field, GSAR has mostly used qualitative research methods, exploring urban space through methods that range from visual recordings to ethnography, emphasising the researchers’ reflexivity. This qualitative approach has, however, paid little attention to the role of embodied practices. In this paper we discuss how embodied methodologies provide multisensory research results where the experienced moments, the participant’s and researcher’s senses, cognition and mobility in urban spaces are connected.…

I ‘graffi’ della protesta. Street art, barriere artificiali e forme di espressione del dissenso
2013
Street art is any art – specifically visual art – developed in public spaces. It can include traditional graffiti artwork, stencil, sculpture, sticker art, street poster art, video projection, guerrilla art, flash mobbing, wheatpasting, etc. Typically, the term is used to refer to unsanctioned or “prohibited” art, as opposed to institutional artistic initiatives. So, is it possible to speak about street art as a form of protest art? If so, what are the signs, texts, codes and practices through which graffiti, stencils and other forms of street art can serve as means to express opposition and dissent? The present paper aims at answering these questions at first through a general historic int…
La street art come motore di recupero e rigenerazione urbana delle aree interne. Un progetto condiviso per lo sviluppo di smart villages nell'area Ma…
2022
The Madonie district, one of the 72 pilot areas of the National Strategy for Inner Areas in Italy in the center of Sicily, is composed by 21 municipalities that really have a great potential, due to their historical background and natural landscape, but it needs new strategies to emerge. Many people from northern cities have returned to their home villages in recent years, to live and work, but they have not found some important and necessary services as there are in smart cities, and to date, these villages do not adopt smart strategies. Many changes need to be made, one solution is to transform them into smart villages through rehabilitation, such as improving the historic center with str…

Street art, récit et poésie
2019
International audience; Au croisement d’intérêts artistiques, sociologiques, juridiques, philosophiques et littéraires, le street art s’intègre de plus en plus au paysage universitaire. Ayant pour objet les relations entre le street art, la poésie et le récit, ce volume développe une nouvelle réflexion transdisciplinaire sur les pratiques urbaines, en proposant des approches littéraire, narrative, axiologique. Il s’interroge sur la portée poétique du street art, une forme d’expression mêlant bien souvent écriture et image, à la fois dessins sur les murs et jeux sur les mots, poésies graphiques et images poétiques.S’il est communément affirmé que l’art urbain apporte une note de poésie à l’e…

Shared Responsibility: author and public in JR's experience
2013
New forms of art have implications that go beyond the aesthetics and the theory of the arts: they emphasize ethical, political and social aspects. The understanding of the new relationship between author and users is crucial to JR’s works and theories. In this paper we will provide a theoretical explanation of his work through the tools developed by Nicolas Bourriaud in Relational Aesthetics. What is the form of artwork today? What are the duties and the role of the artist? what are those of the users? And what are the effects on the social, political and ethical sphere? We shall argue that JR's live actions are able to overcome some of Bourriaud’s theoretical limits: his activity takes pla…
