Mural Painting and The Spirit of The Place Versus Graffiti and Street Art

Abstract

Since 1978, Cité Création has created worldwide more than 650 mural paintings, frescoes, decorations, stage sets in public and private spaces for inhabitants, visitors and tourists. These monumental creations display cultural, social and economic identities. Their aim is to reveal, mark and embellish places, districts, urban spaces and the sites of industrial and service companies regionally, nationally and internationally. Author explains both the role of murals and the difference between them and graffiti, as well as street art.
