A Museum Let Street Artists Do Whatever They Want On Its Walls. Here’s The Result
Street artists began painting on the walls of the Long Beach Museum of Art on June 26th of this year. The project, titled “Vitality and Verve: Transforming the Urban Landscape,” will feature a select group of artists that are either exploring urban art outside of the studio, or are thinking about taking up the studio instead of the street.
“Most of the works in this exhibition will be created on our gallery walls using both traditional and non-traditional art media ,” explains Ron Nelson, Executive Director of the Long Beach Museum of Art. “Once the exhibition ends, the walls will be repainted and prepared for the next exhibition. Therefore, it is important for art enthusiasts to see this amazing exhibition before it closes.”
The exhibit will run through September 27, 2015.

All of them are breathtaking. It's sad that they're gonna repaint the walls after the exhibitions end. :( I wanna keep them forever...
It would be really cool to hire one of these artists to do a wall in ur house. It would be one of a kind and so so cool.
I would rather see this art at a Museum then some of the famous old school paintings. I love the Butterfly
Then go to local galleries instead of museums. You are more likely to find exhibitions of local and experimental artists that way. You may even discover and up and coming artist!

Hi! I am a medical student from Poland, would you help me in my re-search about Computer vision syndrome? Just fill up this short google form! Thank you https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1vHuPzENgXEeuyHc-T7c6cDoCZ62WxA7U1QxgzQ-O-YM/viewform
c est tellement beau que si j ai les moyens je changerai tout chez moi
Insane! These should be preserved! I dont care how! Even if they have to cut out the freakin' concrete walls! :'(
Yes, breathtaking... & extreemly beyond maxi-tallented!!...snap them up people, or miss the bus!!
I'm surprised that the Patrons of the museum are allowing the art to be destroyed.
Love it - I think they should keep those that are the most popular rather than repainting all of them.
Is that all you focused on when seeing this? ... Really?
