    The art was used by all social sectors, but in the marginal sectors take greater importance, because it was a way to express their discontent.

    street art is an urban intervention that was present at many stages of modern history. Street art is considered art because it has a meaning, a reason and a purpose.
    An example of Latin America, where the great artist (mural) were consolidated in the period of military dictatorships.


    All art forms are important, no one can question the techniques used, or where this work is being displayed. the artist is comparable to that of an alchemist, a man who works for himself to leave their jobs to be present at an important event.

    is a free art, where everyone expresses their ideas.
    Each artist paints what he wants and gives a different meaning.
    street many of the paintings come from poor or marginal.
    There are various forms of street art, they can be: graffiti, murals,figures in sand,tattoos, etc.
    a very famous is through music,especially the rap,is a style of music where the lyrics express emotions or who sings stories of the people.

    street art is often frowned upon by others as they assimilate it to vandalism.
    street art finally is often part of the identity of a person, city and nation.

    the street art is a way of expressing themselves and protest. Maybe some people can be drawings that have no meaning and no stain or ruin only a few places such as cities or somewhere walls.
    In it some street performers show their talents by making large or small works of art using different techniques. One of the most representative examples of street art are the graffitis, many artists display their emotions, feelings or simply what they are feeling at the time, artists are understood.

    I believe that all expressions of the street are art, grafitys, tags, etc. are ways of expressing what they feel the authors of these. many of the works carried out on the street are so good compared to the level of the works are in art galleries, and sometimes these authors were looking to make a trabjo and get paid for it.

    the street art:

    generally illegal is an art that aims to surprise viewers, has a striking message, criticizes society invites the social struggle.
    An example of this type of art is graffiti and other forms of artistic expression street, for example for me that art tries to express what he feels his creator, who are often young, adolescent.

    For me, the street art is a form of demonstration and entertainment by artists to citizenship. In street art not matter the age or social condition for express and the gallery for this art, is the street because when you go out you can see paints different.

    My favorite street art is the graffiti, but artistic, the painting with sense and messages for people who observe , so show a idea to change some social problem.

    I think that the street art is a form of manifestation, which uses much of the youth to show their opinion, about the society, like graffiti or murals. Also, It’s used to show the art to massive audience, cause, actually the people don’t visit museums. But also, exist the ''tags'', that in my opinion are just stripes, only forms of vandalism to cause damage, and not as a form of artistic expression. I like the street art, cause is a form of free expresion, it's interesting and entertaining, I love their techniques with spray and their colorful.

    Street art is a way to express feelings, opinions and thoughts among young people about the society in which they live.
    This art has a striking message rebellious critique of society with irony, inviting the social struggle, political criticism and reflection of life.
    In particular, I like street art because it has great colors in their graffitis, and all have a clear basis, valid and free.

    street art is a way where we can young people express what we feel in a free, like to express our anger, joy, when we are against injustice and many more. In the art of the street reveal many wonderful artistic skills of young people who are not recognized because many are against art in the street because they simply do not know what it means.

    The street art is a form in which the young persons can express freely before the company. Often it is a critique to what they consider is not correct or is a way of expressing his displeasure before the politics, or things that should affect the persons.
    I like form in which the colors use and his drawings are very creative as the graffitis, calling the attention of all those who pass along the streets, achieving that we think.
    But I do not agree when they make it alone for vandalism.

    for me, the street art is a way to express what I feel every person in the street Artedo no matter the age or social condition to express his feelings in a mural or design or graffiti.
    the art of the street that caught my attention is the mural, because their designs are very cute and the colors used in cases Mallorie llamativosy cadauno are given a different message.

    In my opinion the street art is the voice of young and adolescents, as they are often despised and not heard by adults and their parents.
    It is also a way they find them to show the world how they feel, think and feel about important issues today, such as love, abortion, wars, hatred, education, etc..
    The only downside is that Chile take advantage of it to grate the streets and walls of private property without cause. These people are criminals, not artists.
    I am in favor of street art.

    For me, street art is truly art, through him, as has always been, situations arise in our history or situations that affect our society. It is an art which does not put limits on any of its exponents, to do it is not necessary to have studied at a prestigious university or have thousands of followers, does not discriminate on economic status, age, color or sex, if you just want to show your art , you can. Besides this type of art can be observed by all, we can go outside and find in any some example of this wall. Among the most known are the graffiti, it consists of painting signs on the walls, often political or social content, and as fundamental materials are spray.

    The street art is one form to express or manifest what people think, and especially protest about politic, culture and other, but the society often not understand the meaning of this art, because dirty the street and pollute the beautifull view with these ugly drafts.
    It is a different, complex and subjective art, difficult to understand.

    It is an art that is discriminated by the renowned artists showing them as an art with little relevance to society, but this art for me is seen as a popular , people want to express form be heard by others, I find it a different art, original and very cute as they are different expressions of what was originally, with that beautiful touch for the eyes of those who walk the streets.

    My point of view is that i consider street art as a proper art, because is a youth-represented art, a way to express their repressed feelings, reflected in the things they draw. They want to show the way that life has treated them or just decorate the streets with colourful drawings.

    The street arts are great! I like the paintings of the walls, paintings made with aerosol, the feeling placed into the eyes or the shapes...whatever that be the drawing in the wall, is amazing the way that the people express angry, happiness, sadness or other feeling, just using their talent... I'd really like do some day some mural or some creation, like the walls that I see everyday on Balmaceda street, are beautiful.

    In my opinion street art is a way for young people to express their ideas, messages and feelings. It is mainly a kind of entertainment that includes a certain amount of rebelion againt society's rules. Grafitti cannot be considered art in the traditionql sense of the word. They are rather a secret written language that street gangs use to communicate with each other. Instead of transmitting beauty they defile buildings and expand ugliness. They are a crime against public and private property. Very rarely there appears something that resembles a mural, a form of art that has deep roots in Latin American tradition. But they are only awkward attempts done by amateurs. There is an North American illustrator who creates amazing three dimension pictures on streetwalks, armed with just colored pieces of chalk, but he is a lonely talented artist.

    Street art for young people who the practice, is a way to express feelings, thoughts and ways of seeing life or society in which they live.
    Some people do this activity as a hobby and others to express their ideals interest. Personally do not like this technique because the cities are ugly and could have a place to make this street art.
    although the techniques, designs and drawings that are used are very striking and beautiful.

    The street art is a form of artistic expression, often illegal, is an art because it expresses the feelings and thoughts of people protested across the street art, surprising with his flashy messages critical of society is the way people know what they feel. I could not say they are ugly drafts because there are some that are cute:)

    I think that the street art is a way of expression used by the people, in which they try to prove his unconformities, his opinions and feelings.
    The most people that practice the street art are young people that want criticize the system in which they live.
    I don't think that it's vandalism, I believe that it's important to try to understand the society.

    the graffiti is a common language but painted, painted signs, walls, etc. I do not like much because sometimes what is written in graffiti does not fully understand, but if the drawings in the form of graffiti depends on the model I can like but I think it has his and cons but I do not like much but it has some nice touches.

    Street art:

    It is an art "illegal", which aims to surprise the espectardor demonstrating social inequality and criticized the legalization of their art.

    A clear example of this art, graffiti, because it is in the place where young people express their feelings, so they fight and prove that what they do is art if not invasive.

    I think that street art is a form of expression is what is used by young people to say their ideas in an artistic way.
    Not all understand it and for some it is vandalism and littering the streets, but for others it is a beautiful art.
    For me personally I like graffiti, is a quick way to express themselves, but also widely used to dirty streets and walls of houses.
