WALL TO WALL HONG KONG

CONVERSE WALL TO WALL 香港啟動

WALL TO WALL計劃是一個以創意為首的行動,密謀在全球搜捕空牆,夾埋全球最頂尖最好玩的藝術家,用藝術色彩翻新,改造城市面貌,只為留下一點創意空間。在過去幾年中,WALL TO WALL已經在紐約、波士頓、洛杉磯、米蘭、巴黎、巴塞羅那等20多座歐洲和北美城市舉行。

今年,我們邀請了4位分別來自中國、香港、澳洲、法國及巴西的藝術家,深入香港街頭,探索本土文化,在不同地點呈現他們眼中的香港。2013年5月20日,CONVERSE WALL TO WALL登陸香港,期待所有人一起發現街頭,發現藝術。

Wall to Wall brings together leading street artists to transform blank walls into distinct art pieces, all in the name of bringing art to the streets. Over the past few years, Converse has worked with artists from around the world to create over twenty Wall to Wall projects throughout Europe and North America.

Converse is proud to announce that Wall to Wall is coming to Hong Kong for its first stop in Asia. Featuring four unique artists hailing from mainland China, Hong Kong, Australia, France and Brazil, Wall to Wall Hong Kong aims to celebrate creativity with a set of temporary art pieces in different neighborhoods around Hong Kong. Start looking for these talented artists and their artwork starting May 20th 2013.

BUFF DISS @Berlin / 柏林

幾年前,Buff Diss放棄用傳統塗鴉噴油,全力用不同顏色、粗細的膠帶做街頭實驗,勾勒獨有標誌性的圖案,跟街頭碰撞,發生不一樣的對話。

Buff Diss purposely decided to stop using spray paint a few years back, instead he now uses masking tape as his sole medium to create his truly unique art, treating the city as his canvas.

CHARLES MUNKA @Hong Kong / 香港

過江龍Charles Munka生於法國現居於香港,對於不同地方文化,他有自己一套解讀方式。他以獨有的筆觸、構圖和色彩,將時空與本土文化化為密碼符號表達,在香港開拓新的藝術領土。

Charles Munka was born in France and is now living in Hong Kong. Here he absorbs his surroundings and sees them as ever-changing spaces encoded with place, time and history. He is both an accomplished painter and street artist; this is reflected in his gestural brushstrokes, use of composition and his subtle manipulation of color.
