We are very happy to announce that Amsterdams Fonds voor de Kunst had awarded our Street Art Museum a grant for the new exhibition “Street Art & Democracy”.

 

The exhibition “Street Art & Democracy” presents the evolution of the street art in the context of the city of Amsterdam, from the first Street Art festival in 2010, to its current position. The outcomes of the project will be presented at a European conference about Street Art, called STAR (the acronym stands for STreet ARt).

 

The project ‘Street Art & Democracy’ offers a retrospective of the street art movement and its impact in Amsterdam over the past twelve years, from the first street art festival in Amsterdam organised in 2010 till the position that street art holds in Amsterdam today.
