This article problematizes the resonance of divisions such as professional/amateur or art/craft in the context of contemporary street art in Chile, a set of practices that provides an interesting window to explore issues of self-organization and new models of making in a country that is usually hailed as one the most successful economy in the region. It uses the recent ‘blanking out’ of the Mapocho river’s bank that for decades has been a favoured canvas for street artists , which aimed to provide a neutral background for a light art project carried out by established artists –the Museo Arteluz—, as the space to articulate this discussion.
