Street art

This section holds the work that happened on the street itself. It starts in November 2010, when word got out about the Underbelly Project in a disused New York subway station, and runs to November 2018, when Bill Posters took over advertising spaces around Black Friday with a campaign called Waste World.

The festivals come in between: See No Evil in Bristol in August 2011, the Urban Forms murals in Łódź that September, Outpost on Cockatoo Island in Sydney at the end of the year, and the Open Walls conference in Barcelona in 2016. There is a fundraiser for King Robbo in 2011, a Banksy crane in March 2012 first taken for a London piece, Jordan Seiler’s Public Ad Campaign, Meggs at Thinkspace, and Invader’s Wipe Out in Hong Kong, the show that followed the removal of his mosaics there. All Big Letters, curated for fifty years of modern graffiti, is here too.

So is All Good Things, the April 2017 group show with which the UK street-art quarterly Very Nearly Almost closed.
