Tour on the commercialization of graffiti and urban art in Madrid
Tour description
Do you want to discover the true essence of urban art and graffiti in Madrid, and how they have become tools for the commercialization of art? Then this urban art tour in Madrid, in the Embajadores area, will introduce you to a world that might interest you, but that sometimes goes unnoticed or is not open to the public.
Join me to uncover the anecdotes that brew within the Madrid graffiti culture. I have years of experience painting murals and exploring areas, both accessible and not so accessible, which gives me a privileged position to explain all these details to you.
During this approximately 2-hour tour, I will tell you about aspects such as:
- The history of graffiti from its beginnings, and the relationship with the socio-cultural context of the neighborhood.
- The very meaning of a 'takeo'. Is graffiti art or vandalism?
- Technical characteristics of the murals we will observe during the tour.
- Curiosities about the pieces I have painted in the area over the years.
- The world of street art and post-graffiti from the perspective of the contemporary art market.
Finally, you should know that if I am not available to lead the experience at the last minute, other members of my collective/crew will take charge of leading the experience as well, or better than I would.
