Summary

STRAAT showcases a vast array of styles, designs, methodologies, and themes, presented through the most significant art movement of our era: street art. The continually transforming exhibition at the unconventional art gallery in Amsterdam initiates its journey even before visitors step inside – adorning the exterior of the building is a huge, colorful depiction of Anne Frank. Creators from various parts of the world have swapped their street murals in New York, Tokyo, and São Paulo for a conventional artistic platform. The scale has not diminished; the canvases they work on remain larger than reality, just like the narratives and chronologies behind each artist's creations.

Description

STRAAT honors a diverse range of styles, forms, methods, and narratives within the predominant art movement of our era: street art. The dynamic exhibition at Amsterdam's unconventional art gallery commences prior to entering – a large, colorful portrait of Anne Frank adorns the building's exterior.

Artists hailing from different parts of the world have opted to swap their street murals in New York, Tokyo, and São Paulo for a more conventional form of artistic expression. The grandeur has not been compromized; their canvases continue to be monumental, just like the narratives and journeys behind the artwork that brought them to this place.
