(R)Evolution of Urban Art
21 November 2009 - 13 March 2010
Large Art Gallery

Urban Art has its origins in street graffiti, spray-paint and stencils, but now it can also be seen on canvas and limited edition prints, making it a mainstream movement. This exhibition explores how Urban Art references the history of art. Through observation, research and discussion with some of the artists, similarities in styles and ideals are highlighted.

(R)Evolution of Urban Art brings together work from 15 internationally acclaimed artists: Banksy, Blek le Rat, Gavin Turk, Adam Neate, David Choe, Faile, Lorraine Robbins, Antony Micallef, Ron English, José Parlá, Elbow-toe, Sam Taylor-Wood, Candice Tripp, Swoon and Takashi Murakami.

These were done with a series of 18 x 18 cm photo-slides, which had been developed black and then etched with an etching needle. The slides were then projected with Pani projectors through out the city of Eindhoven.

The project was conducted with the assistance of Kai- Uwe Schwenck of Panirama, as part of GLOW 09 – International Forum of Light in Art and Architecture.
