Cans

Got an early train at the weekend to go to Cans, quite possibly the most glorious and significant street art festival ever, with just an incredible line up of artists.



The art on show was jaw dropping and the vibe was wonderful. In front of me in the queue was three lads of about 10, masks and gloves at the ready for some stencil madness in the public area, and behind me was a woman of 65 come to enjoy the gallery. Bumped into Matt Small too, which was nice.



A really glorious carnival like atmosphere inside the tunnel with everyone so pleased to be there enjoying the work, which included Banksy, Dolk, Faile, Pobel, Eine, Vhils and many other awesome artists.



Needless to say the day was completely inspiring and will apparently be available to visit for 6 months at least (no installations, but the Graf will stay), and is without doubt worthy of a visit, it will be recognised for years to come as a seminal moment in street art history, and you can tell the kids you were there.
