How do we talk about the urban art of the present and its impact in today’s culture? As an activist of this movement, the gallery strongly reaffirms its support to these artists through a group show reuniting some key artists from all over the world. The artists in this show testify to a link between the cities language, from its walls and its life. As a real artistic movement, and probably the last one from the twentieth century, its diversity appears on the show. Now that the auctions from London to Paris are getting crazy for these artists it is important to bring these great artists together from New York, Brazil, France and many other cities as Maya Hayuk, Jay, Jonone, Lokiss, Nunca, José Parlá, Psy, West, and many others.
This style of art which is born from the City is immediate graphic expression, almost primitive yet eloquent . It is the art of the moment and an important fragment of our contemporary culture. It is this the expression of anonymity, of the forbidden, and of the taboo which creates an atmosphere that is suggesting a struggle towards artistic freedom.
