ASEM Cultural Festival: 2018 | Rostros-Mukha-Faces at a Crossroad

A street art mural bringing together artists from Asia and Europe with their various interpretation of 'faces'.

Mural Monday, 29 October 2018 Ravenstein Gallery Brussels, Belgium

Street art belongs to the public domain, surely? Street artists from two continents are creating a mural in the Ravenstein Gallery, between the Centre for Fine Arts and the Central Station. They are joining forces on the theme of ‘faces’: an unfamiliar face is always the portal we have to pass through in order to make contact with a different culture.

The Spanish painter and sculptor Miguel Ángel Belinchón Bujes (a.k.a. Belin) is one of the most important European graffiti artists. He has even designed brand-new colours for a paint manufacturer, who then added them to their commercial range. The Filipino artist and designer Wesley Valenzuela uses a mixed technique in his graphic depictions of modern urban life, effervescent and brutal in equal measures.

Artists: Miguel Ángel Belinchón-Bujes a.k.a Belin (Spain) & Wesley Valenzuela (Philippines)
