Rebobinart turns 10 years old!

The urban art production company Rebobinart turns 10 years old and we celebrate it during the months of September, October and November 2022 in the emblematic former prison of La Model in Barcelona. This space, which in recent years has adopted a clear resignifying character and shares a link with Rebobinart for that very reason, will be occupied with some of the best mural artists of the moment, exhibitions and activities to reflect on legal urban art as a tool for vindictive and democratic expression.

On Monday, September 5th, the celebration begins on the exterior walls of the venue with artistic interventions by a wide cast of artists who have previously collaborated with the organization and enjoy proven careers and international projection. Octavi Serra, Minúskula, Amaia Arrazola, Núria Toll, Kenor and Uriginal will paint the walls of Provença street throughout the month of September. At the same time, Gemma Fontanals, Pep Walls, Noble and Pol Pintó-the selected artists of the last edition of Wallspot’s Wall Lab- will paint their creations on the walls of Rosselló street.

Inside La Model there will be the exhibition Walls do not paint themselves where, from Rebobinart’s point of view, will reflect on the challenges, tensions and controversies between urban art, the agents involved and the public space. It will review how Rebobinart has paved the way during the course of the last decade with projects such as Wallspot, Ús Barcelona or Womart. The exhibition can be visited from Thursday, October 6th to Friday, November 4th, 2022.

Simultaneously, there will be solidarity urban art routes organized jointly with the association Vivir con Arte, on Sundays October 15 and 30 where you can discover some of the secrets and anecdotes of graffiti and muralism in the city. You can register here.

Finally, the celebration of these 10 years of trajectory, will host on Thursday, October 27th, the discussion Can you make a living from urban art? with the participation of artists Roc Blackblock, Amaia Arrazola and Elisa Capdevila.

Kenor has participated in both the last edition of the Wall Lab of the Wallspot program and in the painting of a community art mural for the project Pla Integral Les Planes – Blocs La Flordia that wanted to bring urban art closer to people and their living areas. Both projects produced by Rebobinart.

Uriginal has been part of the Rebobinart team on several occasions, as for example with his creation for the Livensa Living Studios building located in Alcobendas.
