From September 6 to October 15 more than 70 artists from both Russia and around the world will take part of the Moscow Street Art Biennale ‘Artmossphere’, the first of this kind in the country.
With artists arriving everyday the preparations for the event have already started and in the days to come six urban facades will serve as canvases for Moneyless and 2501 (Italy), SatOne (Germany), Momo (USA), Nicholas Barroma (France) and Erosie (Netherlands) whilst Spanish artist Okuda will install a four-meter sculpture consisting of colored crystal modules at the Muzeon Park in Moscow.
The main event at the Biennial, which opens on Sept 6, will be a large-scale exhibition at the Art Play Design Center showcasing the works of all artists invited and will include both graphic work, installations, sculptures and mural painting.
