We are pleased to announce the release of a new episode of the podcast Street Art Urban Stories, the Wunderkammern project that explores the world of street art, its origins, its key figures, and its many facets.
After delving into the relationship between street art and hip hop culture, the entry of urban art into galleries and museums, and getting to know artists like Biancoshock, in this episode we take a journey through time and space to discover how street art and writing arrived in Europe.
The Birth of European Street Art
In this episode, we explore how street art and writing spread to the European continent, starting in the early 1980s in cities like Paris, London, Bristol, and Amsterdam.
Thanks to iconic films such as Style Wars and Wild Style, the urban culture born in the neighborhoods of New York crossed the ocean, finding a new home and giving rise to a constantly evolving artistic scene.
Evolution in Europe and the Italian Contribution
With the contribution of Bo130 and Microbo, pioneers of street art in Italy, we will explore how this art form has evolved in the European context, enriching itself with new styles, techniques, and tools.
European street art has not merely replicated American models, but has been able to reinterpret them, blending them with local cultures and identities, becoming a global reference point for the movement.
Bo130 and Microbo, active since the 1990s, share their personal experiences, the challenges they have faced, and the evolution of a phenomenon that has broken down barriers, united artists, and transformed urban spaces into true open-air galleries.
