Abstract
The text discuss the urban space as a semiotic and comunicational space. The city passes to be seen (and it also passes to be interpreted) as a scene for many lexias and public registrations. Grafitti, monuments, plates of signalling, outdoors and a infinity of other significant articulations configure the metrópolis as an inhabited text, permanently rewritten. Such assumptions ¡n allow them to understand, as prompt focus of our empirical work, the city of Porto Alegre, situated in the south of Brazil, as a field for many discursive’s coexistences.
