This article is devoted to the analysis of such a form of monumental art in the life of a modern city as muralism. The author highlights the spread of murals as one of the most striking and significant trends among the strategies of street art in the architectural and urban planning practice of the 21st century. Murals are considered as the most expressive positive way to enhance the imagery of a typical building, as well as an effective tool for urban improvement. Using concrete examples of Russian and international practice, the article illustrates the thesis that large-scale facade paintings facilitate navigation in the same type of environment and form the local identity of a particular place.
