However, given the fleeting nature of street art, it’s hard to be confident that these works will stand the test of time and last forever. This partially explains why some of the planet’s most esteemed museums and institutions have hosted career retrospectives by some of the street art world’s biggest names. Unlike other forms of art, street art often results from unpredictable conditions and improvised workspaces, making it all the more impressive. But that doesn’t mean these masters’ best works can only be found at museums and in private collections, as countless incredible works remain on display in their natural settings, out in the public domain. And of course some of the art world’s biggest names (with the auction prices to match) now come from the world of street art. More and more cities are encouraging famous street artists to visit and leave their mark as a way to breathe new life into forgotten neighborhoods. In New York and elsewhere, street art has become an attraction as a host of cities offer their own developed street art trails for visitors to explore.
Whereas street art was once looked down upon, back when it was commonly known as graffiti and viewed as a nuisance, it has now become a desireable art form. Art lovers around the world have come to appreciate the wonders of world-class street art.
