Street art can be defined as art that is developed in public spaces and above all, in the street. It can mean a lot of different things including graffiti, sticker art, installations, poster art, wall paintings or murals, stencils and just about any artwork that is displayed in public spaces... Street art must not be confused with public art. Just like street artworks, public artworks are displayed in public spaces but in contrary to street art pieces, they are planned and commissioned by the government or the owner of the space. Examples include statues, fountains, monuments, memorials and in the recent years also interactive art and public art installations...
