House Paint, Phase 2: Shelter
Description:
If street art is found within the walls of a museum, can we still find something in this vibrant international art movement that can be respected as critical and exceptional art? This exhibition, driven by the street artists themselves, is a distillation of the spontaneity, spirit of collaboration, accessibility and social consciousness from which street art has emerged. Housepaint at the Institute for Contemporary Culture (ICC) at the ROM is the first exhibition of street art in a major Canadian museum, an open-ended exhibition and experiment.
