As part of the street art festival in the museum, we presented an exhibition in a virtual space and presented the entire concept of digitization to an international audience.

The project was implemented with the support of the Ministry of Culture and Information for projects in the field of mobility.

This is an innovative approach to the presentation of street art and graffiti that indicates the need to introduce digitization in the field of contemporary creativity. Although nothing can replace the observation and research of graffiti and street art in real space, in the last decade, and especially in 2020, it has become obvious that new technologies give an additional dimension to this field of art.

 

Calle Libre is one of the largest festivals of urban aesthetics in Europe, where street art is created on decorated walls throughout the city of Vienna.

Through artistic interventions, the festival encourages dialogue between the public and artists. The festival organizes workshops, exhibitions, panel discussions, urban art tours and evening events to create a dialogue and exchange of ideas centered on street art and urban aesthetics. Over the past years, over 16,000 visitors from all walks of life and social strata have passed through the festival. The goal of the festival is to show the other side of street art, in addition to graffiti, which the general public often identifies as vandalism.
