If you are unaware, London held an event this past weekend called The Cans Festival. A collection of some of the most amazing stencil graffiti artists such as Banksy, Blek Le Rat, Sten, Sadhu, were invited to display some of their work. This was also an open event allowing anyone and everyone to show off their own stencil graffiti. The rules were simple.
- This is a stencil only event no freehand lettering or characters
- Report to reception on arrival and they’ll show you where to paint
- No going over other artists
- Painting outside the designated area may well result in prosecution.
There were plenty of amazing artwork on display and too many to choose from to post on my blog. Over 28,000 people visited tunnel art show and 623 of them painted on the walls. You can see the rest of the pictures at SuperTouch. This is one of those events where I wish I was there to witness it first hand. I mean, where else can you go, that allows you to participate in what is considered a felony, surrounded by people that share the same love for art?
