El arte urbano como patrimonio inmaterial. Posibilidades para su protección y difusión

Zusammenfassung

Graffiti emerges and develops as an artistic expression in cities' walls and movable heritage in a spontaneous way and as a consequence illegal. Since then, its evolution has led modifications both in its social and academic consideration as a technique. Nowadays, not only graffiti is an artistic expression in the street, but also urban art and related with it, public art which has a commissioned and legal nature. However, there is no consensus in the nomenclature or its genesis. In any case, none of them have any kind of protection. It is true that it is an ephemeral art but the reality is that we are faced with works that the society itself asks to preserve. Therefore, we will reflect on the possible formulas of cataloging and protection to urban art and public art, attending even if there should be differences between them. They could thus avoid facts like pulls without author permission. For that purpose, the survey method will be used.
