| description |
Charles Tripp argues that through artistic interventions – graffiti, visual street art, performances, demonstrations, banners, slogans – citizens have appropriated the public
sphere. Despite the monitoring of political dissent through persuasion or coercion,
an activist public has created highly visible public spaces, assisted and encouraged
by citizen artists. They have generated debates and have helped to give substance to
competing visions of the republic. |
