description 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.
