Timp de o saptamana, 22- 28 august 2016, vom picta si ne vom distra in mai multe locatii din Sibiu, alaturi de nume de top din street art-ul national si international.
Anul acesta vom definitiva Primul Tur de Arta Stradala din Romania, continuand lucrarile pe scoli. Se va realiza si harta cu ajutorul careia il vom promova in centrele de informare turistica. Turul inseamna doua ore de mers relaxat cu bicicleta si este o ocazie inedita de a vedea si alte zone din Sibiu, nu doar Centrul Istoric.

John Kaye’s Chained To The Sky
Hailing from the east coast of Australia, John Kaye migrated west to the sunny city of Perth to undertake a residency at The Butcher Shop. His show “Chained to the Sky” saw work created inside and outside of the studio with overarching themes concerning freedom and a transient lifestyle. John reflects on his most recent body swilling a glass of red, overlooking the yard from a fold up chair on his makeshift verandah.

The Works Of R1.
R1. is an active street artist based in Johannesburg, South Africa.
He has been most active in the last 7 years working extensively with several street art projects in different cities and continents. His work covers various media, including installations, sculptures and wall art (paste ups). In his interventions and sculptures he often works with found materials, transforming them and giving them back to the city, as modified artistic contributions. R1 has lived in England and South Africa in recent years, where he has done most of his work. The work crosses cultural barriers between England and Africa and creates a dialogue between continents.
Street Craft : Yarnbombing, Guerilla Gardening, Light Tagging, Lace Graffiti and More
Street Craft brings together twenty-eight different artists from different countries whose work has redefined what street art can be. By diversifying materials and techniques, Street Craft artists are pushing beyond the two-dimensionality of graffiti and mural-painting, many of them using craft techniques to bring inventive beauty to bland urban surroundings. Tasha Lewis’s blue butterfly swarms decorate derelict corners of Indianapolis and New York, and Mademoiselle Maurice’s origami and lace graffiti beautifies the streets of Paris and Hong Kong. Other artists create sophisticated urban interventions bearing their personal tags, such as the artist SpiderTag, who intertwines sturdy rope and nails to construct abstract graffiti in Madrid, and GorillaLighting, who haunts Berlin’s industrial estates with impermanent projections.

Raubdruckerin The Pirate Printer
“Raubdruckerin uses drain covers as a printing module for textiles and paper. By pressing a garment on a drain cover coated with paint, the surface is beeing transfered as a graphical pattern onto the desired object. After first experiments in 2006 Raubdruckerin is meanwhile printing in streets all over the world. Currently the collection shows objects from more than 20 cities.
Every place tells his story through his surfaces. To capture the beauty of their stories, to bring people together by organizing street performances and to sensitize people´s view for the little and seemingly unimportant things in life are the main motivations for this project.”

School House Named After Banksy Receives A Mural
Bridge Farm Primary School in Bristol named one of its houses after the local street artist Banksy, following a student contest to rename some of the school’s buildings after famous people with ties to the city. A few weeks later the school house would receive a brand new original mural and a letter, both signed by Banksy himself.
“Dear Bridge Farm School, thanks for your letter and naming a house after me. Please have a picture, and if you don’t like it, feel free to add stuff. I’m sure the teachers won’t mind. Remember, it’s always easier to get forgiveness than permission. Much love, Banksy.“
