This article aims to reflect, under the perspective of Néstor García Canclini’s book “Hybrid Culture: strategies for getting in and out of modernity” (2015), upon the concept of impure genres, created among the precepts of postmodernity and which mixes characteristics of traditional and modern, worship, popular and massive. To better illustrate the concept, the urban art languages of urban posters and stickers – which also holds the typical hybrid genre characteristics, according to Canclini in his studies – will be related to the conception proposed by him. In addition, the study seeks to relate the cartography and the museology as ways to decode this urban memory.
