Street Art at the Tate Modern
I had time to pop up to Tate Modern to have a look at their Street Art exhibition at lunchtime today. It’s the first commission to use the outside of the building, and consists of 15-meter high wall mountings by six international street artists, plus a Street Art Walking Tour around Bankside.
Blu from Bologna, Italy; the artist collective Faile from New York, USA; JR from Paris, France; Nunca and Os Gemeos, both from Sao Paulo, Brazil and Sixeart from Barcelona, Spain.
You can also take the Street Art Walking Tour: an urban tour of site-specific art from a group of five Madrid-based street artists: 3TTMan, Spok, Nano 4814, El Tono and Nuria.
I didn’t actually realise there was a walking tour until I’d left, but I’ll definitely go back for it, as the large pieces were excellent. The exhibition is on until the 25th of August.
Hello Badger. Amazing photos, as always. Can I post one on my blog (crediting you, of course) cause I want to do a post collecting some different big wall art projects?
Thanks, Miss Schlegel. Feel free to use any of them on your blog – look forward to seeing your post.
