Sicilian street art<\/strong> is everywhere in Catania: artists of national and international fame populate the walls, doors, windows of our city. The artistic ferment i<\/strong>s visible, tangible, attracts the curiosity of a growing number of tourists and citizens.<\/p>\n

Events and city journeys are born<\/strong>. Like the one between the asphalt and the sea we created to start discovering this phenomenon. Which, to date, in Sicily and in Catania is cross and delight. There is a lot to do, but something moves, especially in terms of urban regeneration.<\/p>\n

And something is built, especially in terms of artistic-cultural itineraries<\/strong> and the growing interest in these art paths and towards the collectives that stimulate them daily, animate them, make them live. As Mauro Filippi told us, talking about two wonderful projects of street art and regeneration to visit absolutely.<\/p>\n
