description Even though creative activities are arousing an always greater interest in urban studies, and that links between artistic creation and the city is well established, the geographical approach of creation still remains rarely explored. This article is proposing an urban geography of artistic creation in two important cultural cities of Europe, Paris and Berlin, from an original analysis of artistic places in both cities. The concentration of creation in some districts knowing gentrification processes like those in Montreuil or Neukölln reveals very significant socio-economic and mainly spatial impacts of the artists' presence. Creation spaces can be considered, far from the bohemian cliché, as complex social spaces where the artists' social and spatial practices contribute to define real « creation centralities », that are reinforced by the performative representations of the artists'role in urban transformations.
