Abstract

Brief consideration following the disassembly, conservation and relocation of a large-format mural (200m2) and the exhibition experiences in contemporary art centers and other institutional spaces of artists from graffiti and urban art. These two cases will help us to explore the relationship between the works carried out in the public space and how their relocation affects them to be introduced in exhibition contexts or as decorative pieces.
