摘要：With its different forms; styles and ways of execution; Street Art is one of the visual culture languages that are now increasingly present in urban spaces. From a fleeting action that was often accomplished in an unauthorized manner; it has also established itself as an authorized practice; thus becoming an institutional instrument and a new way of visual redefinition of certain urban areas. The concept of Street Art is by no means unitary; but it could rather be seen as a complex and stratified communicative phenomenon that redefines itself by way of its specific modes of intervention in urban spaces. Starting from a series of observations and micro-analyses conducted in two urban areas of Paris the article considers the ways such artworks collect in certain areas as well as the visibility strategies and the effects of meaning determined by their presence.
