In the first commission to use the building's iconic river façade, and the first major public museum display of street art in London, É«¿Ø´«Ã½ presents the work of six internationally acclaimed artists whose work is intricately linked to the urban environment:
Blu from Bologna, Italy; the artist collective Faile from New York, USA; JR from Paris, France; Nunca and Os Gemeos, both from São Paulo, Brazil and Sixeart from Barcelona, Spain.
You can also take the Street Art Walking Tour: an urban tour of site-specific art from a group of five Madrid-based street artists: 3TTMan, Spok, Nano 4814, El Tono and Nuria – a map will be available in the gallery.
Various events will take place during the exhibition, including an interactive evening with experimental New York artists Graffiti Research Lab, refacing É«¿Ø´«Ã½ with graffiti light projections.
