Graffiti in Sochi

in #travel7 years ago (edited)

Hello everybody.
Today I want to talk about graffiti in the wonderful city of Sochi!
Sochi is on the Black Sea coast. There were winter Olympic games 2014. There is a casino in Sochi. In Russia, the casino is prohibited, but in Sochi everything is possible)) In Sochi, many police and there is a house Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin and graffiti must be legal!

Next to the seaport, Belarusian artists from the StreetSkill team made graffiti. They painted faces of the famous British four Beatles in the style of pop art. Graffiti was written on April 13, the World Day of Rock and Roll

This is not the first work of Belarusian artists. So, on the wall of one of the buildings in the center of the resort appeared a shot from the film "The Adventures of Shurik", and on the beach "Mayak" - a portrait of Jacques Yves Cousteau. Also on the Kurortny Prospect is Ostap Bender.

Every year in Sochi there is a festival of graffiti

The initiator of the project was the founder of the association Valgalo - Nikita Scissor. This was the third event that involved writers from Novorossiysk, Volgograd, Krasnodar, Rostov-on-Don, Chelyabinsk; Invited artists Humor (Moscow) and Ben Papyan (Krasnodar) ,BYVT Moscow; Local writers.
