Forty Years of Street Art
This book is the fruit of all of the seminars and conferences given by Floriane Gaber over the last twenty years on the subject of street arts. Researcher and journalist, she gives a global perspective of the development of the street arts in France since 1968. Memories and tableaux taken from real life experiences alternate with historic elements and cultural policy references, which allowed for the flourishing, unequaled elsewhere, of this artistic expression.

How It All Started
Street arts in the context of the 1970's

This work is the fruit of the research led over the past 20 years by journalist and researcher Floriane Gaber. This book is dedicated to describing the context in which the street arts arose in France. Activism, experimentation, the taste for festivity and fairground arts, as well as the cultural policy carried out in France in the '70's all served as the backdrop to the birth of this form of artistic expression.

After her studies at the Royal Conservatory of the Dramatic Arts in Belgium, and a diploma in group leading, Floriane Gaber went on to get a Master in theater at the Institute of Theater Studies and a Litterature PHD at Paris III, where she taught and created the CRAR (Research Center on Street Arts, 1992-1998). She has collaborated, for over 20 years, with several publications for which she writes regularly, on street arts (L’Avant-Scène Théâtre, Rue de la folie, Scènes urbaines, Stradda, www.fluctuat.net …), circus, theater, contemporary dance and non-Western artistic expressions. She is also the author of two European level studies, on the street art public and on the accompaniment of transnational co-productions. Her collaborations with various European networks and her knowledge of the international context allow her to have a nuanced look at the French experience.
