Self-Guided Utrecht Graffiti Tour
Discover graffiti in Utrecht by bike through the eyes of graffiti-insiders from Creative Lab Utrecht.
Visiting the Centraal Museum on Sunday afternoon? Join the free walk-in guided tour of the Graffiti exhibition. (Dutch)
During this free introductory tour on Sunday afternoon, a guide will help you explore the multifaceted relationship between graffiti and contemporary art.
Through paintings, sculptures, installations, photographs, videos and drawings spanning seventy years, you will discover how graffiti has become inextricably linked to art history since the 1950s. The exhibition brings together works by artists who experimented with spray paint as a new artistic medium in the 1950s and 1960s, paintings by influential graffiti artists from the 1980s, and works by contemporary artists who use graffiti as a way to explore and depict urban reality.
What associations does a simple line of spray paint evoke for you? And what traces has graffiti left on contemporary art and on the way you see the city? Explore these questions on this guided tour.
