Le Mur de L’Art 2012 – Day 3

Hot Saturday for Le Mur de L’Art show! The exhibition is happening on the trendy quartier of Le Marais in Paris where fashion meets art and falafels. Home of orthodox jews and the biggest gay community in the French capital. Also stage for the infamous graffitier Kidult to write sharp sentences on the walls. The favorite place of  the street-artist Fred le Chevalier and his sweet paste-ups. Contrast, is all about it!  The contrast about being inside while street-art is expected to be outside. An issue for street-art universe, that we have been discussing with the artists during the event on our studio at Rue de Rosiers in Le Marais, for Alternative Paris documentary.

As expected, the event was crowded during the whole Saturday! That is to prove how street-art have been rising interest in a larger scale.  During the event we could often see children delighting while watching artists sliding their hands with a spray can. A generation that will grow up without any judgment or prejudice of this way of making art.

Today, Sunday the last day of the French salon for street-art. If you are in Paris don’t miss it!!!

Check below on the videos and photos, the best moments of this Saturday at Le Mur de L’Art 2012: Live performances, artists working and signing for fans in their ateliers, music and the backstage of the interviews for Alternative Paris documentary.
