Street Art Revolution | The (true) story of urban art

The exhibition, curated by Giuseppe Pizzuto with art direction of Luca Bravo, tells the story of Street Art through the artworks of its main exponents: Banksy, Keith Haring, Blek le Rat, Shepard Fairey (Obey) and Andy Warhol are just some of the many world-famous artists present who have revolutionised the art world by challenging conventions with their production.

the exhibition

How did the Street Art movement start? How did it go from illegal graffiti on subways to Banksy’s well-known works and artworks sold for millions?

In Street Art Revolution the viewer will explore the vibrant world of Street Art, from its humble beginnings on the streets of New York to its consecration as a global art movement that influences public opinion, stimulates debate and inspires collective action.

HISTORY

Street Art Revolution traces the times and places where Street Art was born and evolved. From the inspiration of Andy Warhol’s Pop Art to the interventions in the USA of Keith Haring, Obey and Mr Brainwash to the French scene with Blek le Rat, Jef Aérosol, JonOne, Invader and the British scene of Banksy, D*Face, Pure Evil and The London Police.

"One of the most disruptive, revolutionary exhibitions ever created. An exhibition project in which the viewer will find himself in dialogue with works of extraordinary media and thematic power. Warhol, Banksy, Obey, just some of the authors who have crossed the boundaries between art, symbolism, and virality. We recognise in them something terribly true, incisive and real. Even if we don't admit it to ourselves completely."

“Una delle Mostre più dirompenti, rivoluzionarie mai realizzate. Un progetto espositivo in cui lo spettatore si troverà in dialogo con opere di inaudita potenza mediatica e tematica. Warhol, Banksy, Obey, solo alcuni degli autori che hanno superato i confini tra arte, simbolismo, e viralità. Riconosciamo in loro qualcosa di terribilmente vero, incisivo, reale. Pur senza ammetterlo a noi stessi del tutto.”
