To discover street art in Catania, the best thing to do would be to get lost in long walks and take eyes wide open and a smartphone to capture the beauty that many artists of national and international fame have wanted to leave as a tribute to our city. One of the most “hot” places is the San Berillo District: a former red light district and now a redeveloped space that, every day, is enriched with art and new street inspirations that are osmoticised with places rich in memory, races, social issues, thanks to the private initiative of those who, like Trame di Quartiere, offers urban regeneration starting from art, culture, creativity. Or who, like the Catanese collective Res Publica Temporanea, has launched the Red Line Distreet project.
