Summary/Abstract: The text concerns an important area of communication and culture in Russia, which is street art. In view of the systemic restriction of freedom of speech in this country in recent years, street art is an important equivalent of expression on social and political issues, as well as a way of expressing protest. These aspects are present in the work of the artist of the young generation, Timofey Radya from Yekaterinburg, hailed as “Russian Banksy”. His works are appreciated in Russia and abroad. In this text, his most important works in terms of communicating social, political, philosophical and aesthetic values have been subjected to a typological and iconological analysis. The article is completely innovative – it has no analogues in both Russian and world literature. The topicality of the content is related to the escalation of tensions in Russia and abroad (the war with Ukraine).
