This blog is where all sorts of subjects that relate to Bristol street art will be discussed. It is also where I will talk about improvements to the functionality of the website and up and coming features. You'll be able to suggest your own ideas to improve this site too.

‘Day of the Dead’ exhibition

House of Paper presents an exhibition of illustrations, paintings, photography and 3d work from international and local artists celebrating Mexico’s traditional ’Day of the Dead’.

Although not a street-art-centric exhibition, it does feature a few artists involved in street-level stuff. Notably French artist Kashink and Bristol-based Haka. That aside, it is well worth checking out. The exhibition opened last night (27th October) and runs until the 6th November.

Photos of Petro show opening night at Friend&co

We are a lucky bunch in Bristol, I mean at least for those interested in street/urban/graffiti art, because not only do we have an abundance of top notch art in our streets, but we also have some great shows. The latest one of these opened the other week (20th Nov) at the Friends & Co gallery on Park Row and featured the work of London-old-school-writer Petro.
