What Is "Street Art"?

 
 
Street art is any art developed in public spaces — that is, "in the streets" — though the term usually refers to art of an illicit nature, as opposed to government sponsored initiatives. The term can include traditional graffiti artwork, stencil graffiti, sticker art, wheatpasting and street poster art, video projection, art intervention, guerrilla art, flash mobbing, and street installations. Typically, the term Street Art or the more specific Post-Graffiti is used to distinguish contemporary public-space artwork from territorial graffiti, vandalism, and corporate art.

What To Wear
 
 Just remember that this class will be hands on meaning that you will be doing actual painting and other various applications of painting.  You don't have to wear a full on painting suit but just be aware that paint can be temperamental and sometimes splatter so wear comfortable clothes you wouldn't mind getting some paint on.
 
Materials
 
Materials will be provided for you in class but all students should bring some kind of sketch pad and a marker or felt tip pen to take notes and to draw ideas out.  This isn't mandatory but recommended as these classes will be accelerated.

Breakdance Chicago Inc. and all of its subsidiaries do not condone the act of illegal graffiti as these classes will be taught for strictly legal artistic enrichment and are not responsible for student's behavior outside of class. 
 

 
 
Incentives for taking classes
 
Students will be learning a valuable lesson in an art medium that is not taught in any kind of institution.  Spray paint art has been part of the American subculture for over thirty years as a controversial yet legitimate art movement.  Come learn what all the controversy, excitement and rush that comes in a 12 oz. can.
