What is street art? In simple words it is the form of art which can be named 'public art' as it is not bound to any limits and it can be seen anywhere around us. It can be a picture drawn on wall, a little color or placing of objects on the pavements, roads or any place around us, which can have some meanings or look like an artistic thing.
This post is about amazing photos of street art, but first learn about the term 'street art':
According to 'wikipedia' Street art is art, specifically visual art, developed in public spaces — that is, "in the streets".
The term can include traditional graffiti artwork, sculpture, stencil graffiti, sticker art, wheatpasting and street poster art, video projection, art intervention, guerrilla art, flash mobbing and street installations.
‘Street’ artists do not aspire to change the definition of an artwork, but rather to question the existing environment with its own language. They attempt to have their work communicate with everyday people about socially relevant themes in ways that are informed by esthetic values without being imprisoned by them.
I am inspired by the photos where artists have transformed the ugliness of the surroundings to piece of art as shown in few pictures.
Enjoy the art scattered around us!
