4 Graffiti Frames

From art exhibition: "Urban art: From the street to the museum"

- Top left: "Photograph in Shangai" by Jana&JS (Austria/France). JANA and JS are a couple of artists working together since 2006. Austrian and French, who now live in Salzburg (Austria) after spending a few years in Madrid and Paris, their main theme is the urban look. They work with stencils (templates) that they cut by hand according to their own photos. Nowadays they work both in urban spaces and in closed exhibition spaces.
- Top right: "Skull key" by OSCH (Chile). Otto Schade's painting ranges from abstract and surrealism to urban art. Working primarily with oil painting and traditional media such as canvas, he also practices other techniques such as collage, illustration and template. His art has taken him to Berlin, Moscow, New York, Amsterdam and finally to London, where he currently lives and works.
- Bottom left: "Jessica" by David Walker (UK). This artist has created an inimitable style of female portraits. His technique is based on explosive mixtures of colors in which he only uses the aerosol. The fame of David Walker has led him to exhibit his works in Berlin, Hong Kong, Los Angeles, Lisbon, London, New York and Paris, among other places, along with those of other great urban artists and representatives of the street movement.
- Bottom right: "No digas a los niños lo rápido que pasa el tiempo" (Don't tell kids how fast time passes) by Jef Aerosol (France). Jean-François Perroy, better known as Jef Aerosol, is a French artist who works in templates. He made his first stencil in Tours in 1982. He remains one of the pioneers and leaders in this ephemeral art. Much of his work is dedicated to street musicians, beggars, children, etc. Paint the life-size silhouettes. White, black and gray are his chosen colours and we will always see his famous and mysterious red arrow. Many cities around the world have been blessed with his pieces and countless portraits of famous people immortalized by the artist.
