On 30 May 2016, <link https: lu.academia.edu peterbengtsen>Peter Bengtsen published an essay in the Italian research magazine Inchiesta about the emerging field of street art studies. Until recently, researchers from a broad range of academic fields who investigate different aspects of street art have predominantly presented their results either in monographs or through conferences and journals that primarily cater to scholars from their own specific academic disciplines. In the last couple of years, however, there have been fruitful attempts to break this pattern. In the essay published by Inchiesta, Bengtsen presents examples of initiatives that point to the establishing of a new discipline which he, for want of a better description, calls "street art studies".
