Urban Artistic Interventions as a Citizen Cultural Practices: Disobedience Based on Paint in the Production of Public Spaces

Abstract

Urban artistic interventions, in addition to colors, illustrations and typography, have interfaces with the different forms of disobedient and subversive appropriation of space. The purpose of the article is to focus on the theoretical articulation of concepts that deal with urban artistic interventions as forms of citadinity cultural practices that engender socio-political actions and disobedience in public spaces. In the Latin American context, these practices demand the overcoming of coloniality, which limits us in the construction of social and identity representations. It is proposed to present some forms of urban artistic interventions related to the production of public spaces and to understand how citadinity cultural practices fit into these dimensions.
