Capital(s): 60 years of urban art in Paris
More than 70 French and foreign artists, hundreds of archive photos and works, exclusive interviews...Rich in its past, Paris also embodies the history of art in progress, the one written under our eyes in the streets. Indeed, for more than six decades, a visual revolution has been underway. It disturbs, questions, surprises, seduces. In the emergence of this artistic movement which has become planetary, the capital has played an extremely important role. From the pioneers of stencil to the explosion of graffiti, from the dark years of repression to public orders, through the development of new techniques and the perpetual arrival of new talents...Capitale(s) offers a return in images to 60 years of uninterrupted companionship between the city and urban art in all its expressions. A protean and plethoric production carried by artists from here and elsewhere, attracted by the City of Light which has become, over time, one of the essential and lasting capitals of urban art.
