Categories of Street Artists
Street painters are classified into three categories: „Copyists,“ „Free Artists,“ and „3D Artists.“
Copyists
They form the roots of street art: copyists accurately transfer images of old masters like Michelangelo or Raphael onto the pavement—often several meters in size. Their works are a homage to art history.
Free Artists
These artists create their works freely and spontaneously—without a template, with their own unique style. Their motifs are often personal, poetic, or socially inspired.
3D Artists
They create illusions: using precise perspective, 3D artists transform the pavement into seemingly three-dimensional images that viewers can enter as if into a real space.
