Why the City Needs Street Art, a Panel Discussion
Part of the Cross-Industry Conference for Small and Medium Enterprises as well as the parallel Public Awareness Programme of the Here and Now Festival 2024
Today, art is growing its presence outside cultural institutions and permeating the urban landscape. Who are the artists creating in the streets, and what is their method? How do they integrate into their environment and then succeed in reorganising it?
This discussion saw members of the art community exchange their ideas on how public art adds to the perceived value of a location while also sparking changes in a city’s cultural and architectural codes.
