Il difficile inquadramento teorico della c.d. Street Art

This paper focuses on the topic of so-called street art, particularly its challenging theoretical framework, which remains remarkably complex even today. Indeed, this phenomenon can be understood, depending on the specific cases and circumstances discussed, as a cultural and artistic manifestation or as an act of vandalism. Hence the need to outline the evolutionary lines of the street art phenomenon, as well as the main legal aspects of the topic. While awaiting specific national legislation that recognizes and legitimizes the practice of street art, the growing regulation of local governments appears of fundamental importance. These regulations, through specific regulations, allow for the recognition of this artistic and cultural phenomenon, making dedicated public spaces available to interested artists.
