The Federation of Urban Art

Supported by the French Ministry of Culture, the Federation of Urban Art (‘La Fédération de l’Art Urbain’) was created in October 2018 to gather together artists, amateurs, organisations and professionals working in urban art.
It aims to support and promote urban art in France, to increase its visibility and recognition as an art form, and to document its cultural value.
Member networking
The Federation connects its members to one another through:
– regular newsletters;
– collective meetings;
– discussion on social networks.
Professional development
The Federation supports the professional development of its members by:
– highlighting legal and administrative news;
– strengthening connections between professionals;
– organising information sessions.
Promotion of urban art in all its forms
The Federation encourages the recognition of urban art practices by:
– circulating documentation resources;
– working on an ongoing basis to enhance its urban art archives and make them available for consultation;
– supporting scientific research and the institutional acquisition of works of urban art.
