| dcterms.abstract | Graffiti is an art practice that can be found in almost every city on the planet. Since, the end of the xx century graffiti artists have been painting walls in our cities, and by doing so, they have generated particular ways to inhabit, to build and to understand the city in a context where globalization, mass media and internet are constantly modifying the urban space. Locally, the intervention of graffiti has affected the relation between citizens, city administrations, artists and the high art sphere. Therefore, this work analyzes the graffiti production of six different artists from two cities in Latin America: La Havana, Cuba and Bogota, Colombia. Focusing principally in understanding the interconnection, in Havana and Bogota, between particular urban policies, graffiti and how these cities are imagined and represented. To finally conclude that, graffiti allows artists and citizens to participate in the construction of the city, outside the frames imposed by the nation/state or the neoliberal market, even if only as part of an imaginary conception of each space. | |
