Graffiti exhibition - street art within the walls of the Museum of Nature and Man

Khanty-Mansiysk. The City Museum of Nature and Man has provided its exhibition hall for an unusual exhibition that opened last weekend. Her exposition is composed of works selected for the exhibition by artists working in the style of graffiti. Typically, such work is carried out on walls and fences, but especially for the exhibition, they were decorated on canvas.

The exhibition, the opening of which brought together so many people who wanted to see the work done by street artists, that the audience could hardly find themselves in the museum hall, was presented under the name "Ugraffiti". All exhibits in the hall did not fit, the largest of them remained at the entrance to the museum. The old school bus, originally designed by artists, has become a real highlight of the Ugraffiti project.

Participants of the exhibition say that if it is possible to legally design a city in graffiti style, they will be able to create street illustrations that tell the story of the Ugra region. Then the bus will be an excellent vehicle for showing tourists street art objects. About a dozen artists represent street art at the exhibition.

Among them, there are professionals, which include Dmitry Syromyatnikov. This young artist is still a student, however, very soon he will receive the specialty of industrial designer. While he creates invented worlds, using the style of surrealism in his canvases.

The organizer of the exhibition, Vladislav Ageev, works as a teacher in the center of the Arts. Most of the works participating in the exhibition are his works of authorship. All the artist’s works are united by a character who has become a visiting card of the artist. A man with a spray can of paint instead of a head. even lives on a T-shirt by Vladislav Ageev.
