Finding a Challenge on Street Art
|
|
An old saying says that art is a gift from God, so that there is no people becoming artist without this gift. Looking at street artists, this proverb is seemingly the truth. In a broader meaning, it seems like there are so many artists in this world. We call artist to every that person, who could sing, perform, paint, draw etc. However, they make their work intentionally for rewards. They also use their artistic skill as their income source. Generally, any artist set their success in that term as their goal.
Street art is much different from all other forms of art. It is not reward that a street artist demand. With some respect, we can call them true artists. Street art is such form of art, which needs no canvas to display. What becomes its canvas is the street walls. People, who do this act, are true artists as they need no publicity. They are sensitive, as they can emphasize the pains and the suffers of the others. They express their feeling with their work on street walls without any canvas as artistic medium. Street walls are perfect canvases for them. Many people admire the works, because it expresses the emotion of the artists.
People all over the world then name this expression as street art. We can trace back this street art since not long ago. This art was started in 60s when some American use this method for their expression. Instead of painting on a canvas, they paint or write some works with spray of various colors on the walls of streets. This wording painting is then called graffiti. People then start using high artistic technique for this art.
Sometimes they also use pieces of papers and glasses to beautify the work. Those efforts make this art fly to the sky limits. The art works are then displayed on the wall streets along some international routes. Sometimes it is just so much that many people consider the action as crime. However, still many people are trying promote street art. With its popularity. many people nowadays even consider this art as a leading field of art all over the world.
