La street art come pratica autodescrittiva della cultura istituzionale. Il caso Taranto Regeneration Urban Street.

The aim of the essay is to analyse the ways in which institutions use an artistic practice such as street art for the self-description of their culture, as in the case of the Taranto Regeneration Urban Street. In a socio-political context characterised in recent years by strong conflicts due to the effects of pollutants from one of Europe's largest steelworks, the Municipality of Taranto promotes a vast street art operation involving dozens of facades. The documentary describing the project is a useful text for understanding if and how institutions promote memories, define oblivion and narcotize conflicts.
