Urban Art Clash
@ Cube / 3.500 m2
The URBAN ART CLASH is pleased to announce a large-scale exhibition featuring current positions of Contemporary Urban Photography and Aerosol Art that will be Opening from May till August 2012 in Berlin - the global epicenter of this international art movement. 51 Artists from different countries, all major players in the Urban Art genre, have been invited for a 4 month exhibition at the historical "Kunsthaus Tacheles", and the catacombs of the "Cube" in Berlin.
URBAN ART CLASH introduces a generation of artists who confront the challenge of working in public spaces to develop new forms of artistic approach. As the name suggests, “Street Art,” with its striking and recognizable motifs, is found in the metropolises of today's urban society- adopting, reviving and influencing multiple aspects of collective urban life. Applied Street Art techniques such as graffiti writing, stencil, painting, photography, readymade, collage, drawing and graphic design will be transferred to the exhibition rooms. All artworks will be specifically created for the exhibition, which will culminate in an opening with numerous live events and performances that invite the visitor to interact with the exhibition and the artists themselves. Selected works will also be later integrated in the art store of the exhibition. Whether screens, murals, sculptures or installations, Street Art has a fascinating wealth of forms that reveal a wide array of positions, all rooted in the concept of Urban Art and influenced by avant-garde movements such as Fluxus, Pop Art and Conceptual Art.
URBAN ART CLASH will reflect actual developments in the movement and uncover new artistic intersections along with the participating artists. Urban Art and Street Art are experiencing increasing global attention from significant collections, publications and institutions in the established art market, as well as an academic reappraisal of the genre within the art historical context. Works by selected street artists continue to break auction records and the fact that the Museum of Fine Art Houston has purchased two Lokey Photography Prints symbolizes the staggering development and widespread notoriety of this anarchic art movement.
