Today the MURO Festival kicks off in Marvila
Last year Thomas blogged about the Lisbon Street Art scene – he loves it – still he thinks that the scene in Lisbon is becoming too much art and very little street.
It does seem that now many companies and public institutions have realized its potential and thus are financing big street art projects. Can a movement that emerged from the desire to conquer the streets loose value if it’s legal?
Personally, I think there is enough space for the legal and the illegal street art to coexist, each with different purposes.
This weekend you have an occasion to judge for yourself when MURO kicks off and brand new art pieces come to life on Lisbon’s walls.
What do you think?
