<div>The alleyways of Trastevere are the veins of Rome. Here, there is always a tavern or craft shop to visit, there are always card games played on street corners, and the exuberant style and culture of the district (now considered the “Historic Centre”) is manifested in its street art.<br><br></div><div>The street art in Trastevere is much more spontaneous than the rest of the street art throughout Rome, because the historic buildings of the district are considered “cultural heritage” and are therefore protected by architectural constraints that make it very difficult to obtain the necessary authorizations to intervene with large murals.</div><div><br>Perfect playground for small interventions like posters, stickers and stencils. French artist C215 world has visited Rome several times and left his artworks across the city. His works shine the spotlight on ‘characters of the street’ and the ‘overlooked or invisible people in society’ – animals, street kids, smokers, the homeless, refugees, and lovers. His street art pieces are meant to change, degrade, and transform over time. They are designed to be destroyed or forgotten.<br>This work at the entrance of this sparkling district shows that love conquers all, even during a global pandemic.</div><div><br><br></div>

Untitled

Etnik

<div>Plants and flowers that rise from the cracked concrete to the sky and take up the entire facade of the branch office of the Liceo Scientifico Statale Francesco D’Assisi. The work, signed by street artist Etnik, is called 'Botanica Resistente', and is the first entirely "onlife" activity of 'Uno, niente, Centocelle', the winning project of the Mibact Cultura Futuro Urbano call born from the collaboration between the high school Romano, proponent, and the two partners Fusolab 2.0 and Flyer with the support of a.DNA, Enea, Legacoop, CooperACTiva and Ccpc. tti.<br><br>"After almost a year of forced stop due to the pandemic, during which it was possible to carry out only a few online workshops, the activities were able to gradually resume only in the last month with some" hybrid "workshops online / in person", reads in the note issued on the matter.&nbsp;<br><br>The title refers to the original name of Viale Palmiro Togliatti which, until about 1979, was known as Viale della Botanica. A direct reference, therefore, to the toponymy that characterizes the whole district of Centocelle with its streets named after plants, trees and flowers.<br><br>"Etnik's work is undoubtedly based on the irremediable antithesis between architecture and nature: in the mural the concrete blocks, the asphalt and the artificial works succumb to the natural elements, giving life to a slow but gradual reconquest of the spaces taken away from nature ”, continues the note. However, "Botany Resistant" has multiple readings. "Those plants and flowers represented by the Italian street artist, known and printed all over the world, also want to symbolize the ability of the inhabitants of Centocelle to react after the fires at the Electric Sheep, at the Baraka Bistrot and other commercial activities in 2019. More in in general, the symbolism used is a tribute to those who take action in their own territories in defense of the common space for the dissemination of culture, inclusion and social interaction. A feeling that is also the engine of the 'One, none, Centocelle' project ".<br><br></div>

<div>Forever Kobe is a mural the artist self-financed to pay a tribute to one of his youth heroes.

Forever Kobe

<div>The mural depicts a woman looking into a frame, as a mirror, seeing her reflection as a man. It is designed to create emotional understanding in the process of acceptance in the LGBT+ movement and their surrounding.&nbsp;<br>This mural is made out of mixed materials, where the last layer of paint (airlite) is compensating pollution over 52 cars per day.&nbsp;<br><br>Dedicated in memoriam of Karl Du Pigné, activist and true leader in the LGBT+ movement in Rome.&nbsp;<br><br></div>

Iena Cruz

<div><strong>This is Yourban2030’s first project</strong>, and it is a monumental display located in Via del Porto Fluviale (Ostiense) in Rome.<br><br></div><div>Created by international artist Iena Cruz, this project is part of his already renowned and impressive portfolio of brilliant street art. Iena’s artwork places strong emphasis on environmentalism. This project at Ostiense is setting off increased public awareness about environmentalism in urban settings. The value of the work is strongly symbolic: the animal, in fact, not only hunts its prey, but also the pollution in one of the most trafficked and polluted intersections of the capital thanks to the use of eco-paintings.<br><br><strong>EUROPE’S LARGEST GREEN MURAL<br></strong><br></div><div>This mural is made from a special eco-paint that can actually break down atmospheric pollutants. This is possible thanks to a chemical process in the paint whereby pollutants are essentially captured and removed from the air, purifying it in a natural way.</div><div>This revolutionary technology is called Airlite, which is available for anyone to use. Tests show that <strong>Airlite</strong> may reduce air pollution by up to 88.8%, and can also eliminate bacteria from surfaces, repel dust, and neutralize odors.</div><div>It is a truly impactful solution. Consider this quick example: a surface space of 100m2 (one hundred square meters) painted with Airlite has the same positive impact on air quality as 100m2 of forest.<br><br></div><div><strong>This solution is sustainable in two distinct ways: in the medium and in the message.<br><br></strong><br></div><div><br></div>

<div>The name of the area, Pigneto, is due to the presence of a long row of pine trees, planted by the noble Caballini family and placed along the wall of the eighteenth-century Villa Serventi, while the main street of the district is the homonymous via del Pigneto, which runs zigzagging from a few hundred meters outside Porta Maggiore.<br>The old SNIA factory holds some turbulent history, risen on the ashes of an old factory established in the 1920s, one of the first big factories in Italy. An invasive construction policy in the surrounding area, led to an unexpected flood in 1992, and to the formation of a lake.<br>Recently, the people managing the occupied ex-factory have joined the locals to defend the lake Lago Ex-Snia and the surrounding area that has become a public park. The structure is covered in beautiful graffiti that you should check out.<br><br>Perfect place for Italian street activist Blu, one of the world’s “most famed, elusive, and renegade muralists,” who has “returned the art form to its social conscious and political roots.<br>He portrays a multitude of the oppressed.

<div>Museo della Mente once was a public mental institution dating back to the 16th century and where the mentally infirm were treated in the most shameful ways was shut down in 1978. The structure has always been a “city inside the city”: a 130-hectare park with roads, a church, houses, and a canteen. Hospital workers and the mentally ill patients used to live there.&nbsp;<br>When the place was abandoned, political conflict arose with regard to giving it a new life. In the last 20 years, associations of volunteers have worked to maintain the decor of the park. Some of the apartments have been occupied by young people. The Ex-Laundry, an incredible intercultural center that offers courses and manages a small café, was born. The past of the Ex-Manicomio is remembered inside the “Museum of the Mind.”&nbsp;<br>Local street artists have passed by and spontaneously decorated many of the obsolete buildings with beautiful paintings. Sometimes, their artistic rendition deals with mental illness. The place, rather than being macabre, now has its charm. Take a walk inside the icon of this neighborhood on the north-western outskirts of Rome. Murals emerge from concrete like elves. Pine trees create a pleasant shade. The art is vibrant here and will surprise you.&nbsp;<br>Venezuelan artist Gomez who resides in Rome painted the outside of the main buidling.<br>"I thought of representing society's perception of madness as a negative thing, to be isolated - says Gomez - In truth I am convinced that madness is a social label and that indeed, often in a certain bizarre resides a sensitive, similar spirit to art. I was not born a painter and for many years I avoided madness, I have to thank the family and friends who believed in me and through whose trust and patience I found a way to express myself today ".</div>

Fintan Magee

<div>A wall of over 16 meters on an Ater building in Via Cristoforo Numai, painted on the occasion of the artist's personal exhibition at the Varsi gallery, in collaboration with the Muracci Nostri collective, already very active in the neighborhood. Titled "The Roadkill", the work depicts a little girl holding up a large deer head. As often happens in the artist's poetry, inspiration comes from his childhood memory. "I was very impressed - said Magee - from a story that my neighbors told me when I was 7. They told me they had hit a deer. I didn't know there were these animals in Australia. My mother explained to me that they had been introduced by the Europeans and they were a plague: they carried diseases and devoured the plants on which the kangaroos were fed. But despite everything - he concludes - I could not fail to feel sorry for such beautiful animals ".</div>

 The Roadkill

Pixel Pancho

<div><strong>After his successful solo exhibition in Rome with Varsi Gallery, Pixel Pancho worked on a massive wall in the district of Primavalle in Rome, Italy. The Italian artist brought to life this beautiful artwork showing the legend of Theseus and his fight with the Minotaurus.</strong><br><br>Entitled “Theseus and the Minotaur”, the mural sees Pixel Pancho first of all inspired by the famous myth of Theseus, through a reworking that passes here towards a new and interesting aesthetic approach. In fact, the artist tackles the large surface with a painting marked by small brushes, which dramatically increase the level of detail and involvement, creating the silhouette of his iconic robots and natural ornamental elements, through small and meticulous strokes. Reimagining the mythological as robotic, his violent struggles are at once crushing and sensual, brutally lyrical, animatronically efficient. The two robotic-looking characters are part of his artistic reflection on the encounter between robots and gods, extraordinarily revisiting the classic myth that fits into the ordinary life of a suburban neighborhood.<br><br>The narrative in Pixelpancho‘s work is driven by a forgotten world sitting under a blanket of dust. In his universe, broken and dented robots are found decaying on the ground, their iron and rusted copper bodies falling and laying about as if discarded into oblivion. Although the scale of his work varies, his surreal realm is the constant thread that pierces through contemporary and historical references. The strength of the physical dimension and of the gestures that humanize his robots are particularly noticeable on the walls of abandoned buildings in cities throughout Europe, the U.S. and Mexico, and are all part of an interconnected structure of stories, as in all of his murals, paintings, and sculptures.</div>

TESEO E IL MINOTAURO

Bordalo ll

<div>&nbsp;Forgotten hopes to bring attention to buildings, considered to have high potential and that run the risk of being forgotten, through street art, linked to several collateral events aimed to let the people appreciate the building and its surroundings<br><br>Bordalo II, conveys the perfect message to highlight this metamorphosis. In his work, which converts urban garbage into large assemblages representing colorful and impactful animals, he demonstrates how rejected objects can be repurposed to form art. The artist’s works are at the same time a critique towards contemporary society that is not able to see the beauty that can come also from waste materials.<br><br>The place chosen is Saint Peter Station which, with 253 trains per day, is the station of the shortest international railway in the world – connecting Italy with Vatican State.<br><br></div><div>This intervention at Saint Peter Station owned by Rete Ferroviaria Italiana (Ferrovia dello Stato Group) talks about the profound metamorphosis of urban areas: the main railway Stations to access the city of Rome, built in the beginning of the 20th century, and at the time placed at the outskirts of the city, became very central after the physiological expansion of the metropolis, and are nowadays used for local and suburban transportation with record peaks of daily users. Forgotten proposes the theme of urban stations to underline their historical meaning but also the real possibility to use more and more metropolitan trains instead of road transportation in the future.<br><br>For more info on the "making of" , head over to local <a href="https://www.blocal-travel.com/street-art/bordal-ii-in-rome/">Giulia's Blocal blog for some interesting stories.</a></div>

L'urlo del Che

<div>The gift of the famous Belgian street artist to the capital is a hymn to instinct 30 meters high. In this monumental painting in the Testaccio district of Rome, Roa celebrates the symbol of Rome with a contemporary she-wolf ready to jump to free herself from the discomfort in the space that constrains her. An extraordinary work in terms of construction quality, also the result of the courage of the condominiums of the building that houses it and of the municipal administration, a work destined to make people discuss but isn't this the duty of the cultural avant-gardes?<br><br>Supported by 999 Contemporary</div>

Jumping Wolf

Etam Cru

<div>The Rome mural was commissioned by the local city council with the supervision of Galleria Varsi, a dynamic gallery near Campo de' Fiori known for its stable of street artists, and which currently hosts an Etam Cru exhibition entitled<a href="https://www.wantedinrome.com/whats-on/2004429/bedtime-stories.html"> Bedtime Stories</a>.<br><br>The Polish duo Etam Cru (Bezt and Sainer) created the highest mural in Rome (to date) on the border between the Tor Pignattara and Pigneto neighborhoods: 32 meters&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;<br>Trendy Pigneto is an up-and-coming area with low-key pizzerias, traditional trattorias, so perfect spot for Polish duo Etam Cru to create the tallest mural in Rome for their first visit to the city.</div><div>You can catch this fading, 15 foot man coming out of a garbage can with a coffee in his hand. Many in the neighborhood censored this subject, thinking it was a representation of the area that has long been afflicted by a chronic emergency linked to waste disposal. In reality the artists - as often happens - did not really think about the problem but tried to represent a grotesque situation in which to synthesize a "gentle" Italian everyday life (coffee in fact) and a "negative" or the situation of discomfort and marginalization of many people forced to live on the street.</div><div>The enigma remains and maybe that's good.</div><div>Do you like coffee?
