Murals

A Discussion of Public Space as a Medium

In 2009, the Joan Miro Foundation in Barcelona organized an exhibition that brought together a group of contemporary mural artists from very different cultural and stylistic backgrounds. This documentary follows these artists as they work and discuss the use of an empty wall as a canvas and expressive medium.

The participants included women from Djajibine Soninke, Mauritania; New York Times illustrator and editor Brian Rea; Thai muralist Sakarin Krue-On; Mexican artist Jeronimo Hagerman; Nuria + Eltono from Spain; and many others. In all, twelve artists participated of the exhibit.
