Poles in Italy: Natalia Rak and Etam Cru at Memorie Urbane 2014

June 10, 2014

The Polish duo Sainer and Betz, who together are named ETAM CRU, have just completed walls at Memorie Urbane along with their countrywoman Natalia Rak, who comes from Lodz.  Together the illustration style of their fantastic realism is characteristic of a current trend in muralism and these twenty-somethings all continue to stretch the imagination with saturated color, pleasing imagery, and a technical flair that lends itself to children’s story books.

Ernest Zacharevic “Toy Mafia” in Gaeta, Italy

May 6, 2014

You’ll have to laugh when you first see the new double wall installation just completed by Ernest Zacharevic for the Memorie Urbane Festival. Known for his light hearted hand rendered site-specific illustrations of kids at play, Zacharevic positions two boys around the corner from one another ready to blast each other to pieces with water guns. Hopefully Gaeta appreciates the humor.

The title? Toy Mafia. brooklyn-street-art-ernest-Zacharevic-lorenzo-gallitto-memorie-urbane-festival-italy-04-14-web-2

April 17, 2014

Memorie Urbane Festival 2014 in Gaeta, Italy is in full swing. Begun principally as a way to promote tourism by David Rossillo, the mural festival is carefully curated to recognize the common history, traditions and the natural landscape of Gaeta and Terracina rather than simply promoting an international roster of Street Artists. Loosely translated as “urban memories” the site specific installations are meant to recall how the memory of a place is an essential starting point for what evolves from it; a dialogue between past and present, between art and public spaces.

Photographers Lorenzo Gallitto and Giorgio Base of Blind Eye Factory are documenting the works as they are going up and here share their photos with BSA readers for our global audience to enjoy.

Opiemme Bus Stops with Memorie Urbane and “In Attesa”

Opiemme Bus Stops with Memorie Urbane and “In Attesa”

January 16, 2014

Italian Street Artist and text-loving wordsmith Opiemme hit bus stops last month in the cities of Gaeta and Terracina  – about 75 miles from Rome.  While he has done a number of freelance customizations of public space in the past with his text pieces, this one is part of a project by Memorie Urbane called “In Attesa – Art at the bus stop”.  As you can see, Opiemme’s hand cut stencils are pure poetry – deliberately arranged.
