Google Helps Immortalize The Vanishing World Of Street Art谷歌幫助保存正在漸漸消失的街頭藝術(shù) By Emily Thomas 作者：艾米麗 湯姆斯

Street art is far from static in the ever-changing urban jungle.

街頭藝術(shù)在風(fēng)云變幻的城市生活中絕不是一成不變的。

Building walls get ripped down, taking with them painstakingly detailed murals; frustrated landlords whitewash over laborious graffiti, and gradually, those impermanent works become nothing but a distant memory.

一座座高樓大廈的被拆除，伴隨著它們毀滅的是藝術(shù)家嘔心瀝血創(chuàng)作的精細壁畫。沮喪的屋主們刷白苦心創(chuàng)作的涂鴉，漸漸地，這些暫時的作品成為遙遠的回憶。

In an effort to immortalize urban art, Google launched the Street Art Project in tandem with a handful of art institutions Tuesday. The new interactive site allows users to get up-close and personal with street art spaces from around the world. Featured spaces include New York City’s late 5 Pointz graffiti mecca and the giant murals adoring the abandoned building walls of Buenos Aires’ Coghlan Art District.

為了保存城市藝術(shù)，谷歌和多個藝術(shù)機構(gòu)于周四聯(lián)合啟動了街頭藝術(shù)計劃”。“新互動網(wǎng)址能夠讓使用者們近距離親身體驗世界各地的街頭藝術(shù)。

“These works of art that decorate our streets do not always hang about for long, which is why we’re delighted to work with partners around the globe to help them tell a story of street art around the globe,” Amit Sood, Google Cultural Institute's director, told Time.

“這些裝飾街道的藝術(shù)作品不能長時間留在墻上，因此我們很樂意與全球各地的伙伴合作，來講述街頭藝術(shù)的故事。”谷歌文化學(xué)院主管阿米特•蘇特這樣告訴時代周刊。
