STRICKING AGAINST THE SYSTEM

From the most chaotic city in the world Mexico City to Norway,Urban Art is a term that dont believe in boundaries. The last century has gained so much popularity.It was used mainly by the art establishment to encompass art and artists who were originally involved in street and graffiti art. The term achieved further endorsement when major auction houses such as Bonhams used it to categorise these types of prints.

Artists associated with the Urban Art genre, include Keith Haring, Banksy, Dan Baldwin,Madres, D*Face and Pure Evil. The movement began life as an ephemeral art form disappearing as fast as it appeared. Now many of the works that were created with spray-paint and stencils and began life as street graffiti are being transferred to canvas and limited edition prints, completing its transition from underground subculture to mainstream art movement.

URBAN ART AT CONDESA

So you are reaching for a nice pub to take some lads or a hot club to go and shake your ass all night long at Mexico City.The place to go and have fun with your friends its a neighborhood called CONDESA. This is a place that the population mainly is from the outside including Asians, Latins , Europeans etc. Also it has several trendy shops to buy a nice kicks and some hype t shirts. I just wanted to highlight this background so you can see why this two great urban artist chose this neighborhood to release their art. SAM FLORES AND SANER which stayed several days under the sun and rain at Condesa, ended this piece of art at the Mercado de la Condesa( Condesa Market) with the purpose of attract juveniles to the old school markets in Mexico. This urban project was directed by ADIDAS, Elaboratorio and Delegacion Cuathemoc.These artists commented they are pretty strict when a brand ask them to do something, the selection of the brand from the part of artist has to be with a non profit purpose.

I just feel very proud of urban art in the streets of where i live, hopefully more artist combined several efforts to create an urban culture in many places around the city, plus it gives a different environment for the people when are crossing by
