Naples Street Art by Giuliana Mariniello

In this recent work I have documented some episodes of street art in Naples which in recent years has been enriched with a lot of creations by Italian and foreign artists starting from the works of the French artist Ernest Pignon-Ernest

In this recent work I have documented some episodes of street art in Naples which in recent years has been enriched with a lot of creations by Italian and foreign artists starting from the works of the French artist Ernest Pignon-Ernest, inspired above all by Caravaggio, and by Banksy who created Madonna with a gun, his only work in Italy.

The Italo-Dutch Jorit, one of the most interesting artists, painted large murals in the city and suburbs, inspired by various characters of Neapolitan culture, such as San Gennaro and Maradona. Political murals devoted to Fidel Castro and Giulio Regeni alternate with the works of artists such as Zilda, Tvboy, Roxy in the Box and Trallallà who covered the walls of the historic center with sirens which, like Parthenope, reminds the mythical origins of the city.

Wandering through the streets of Naples, thanks to street art, you meet popular icons such as Totò, Pino Daniele, Frida Kahlo, saints and madonnas who create a suggestive mix between the sacred and the profane. Naples becomes a city to look at and that looks at us, creating a dialogue with passers-by and expressing a culture of creativity and sharing, of resistance and freedom of vision and thought, as shown by the various interventions that enrich the original works with comments, poems and stickers that  in the end create a collective collage.
