"There are a lot of interesting things happening in street art, in a lot of countries" said curator Cedar Lewisohn. The exhibition "Urban Art at Tate Modern" will open the 23rd May and be displayed until the end of August. The artists will submit their artworks before being showcased on a 12 m x 15 m format on the facade of the Museum.
Banksy, that I love is from London and certainly gave inspiration to the Tate Modern for this exhibition. But street art means more than Banksy. Six famous artists have been selected : Blu de Bologne, Faile from NYC, French photographer JR, the Brazilian Nunca, Sixeart from Barcelona et Os Gemeos from Sao Paulo.
