The Gallery

An exciting collection of street, graffiti and contemporary art now available at the Opus Store, Covent Garden, London, and here online at the Opus Collection site. Leading artists from around the world come together in this exciting new exhibition of urban art.

Last year was street art's biggest year so far. In May, Banksy hosted Cans Festival, a London gathering of 40 of the world's best stencil artists. They painted the entirety of a tunnel underneath Waterloo Station and visitors queued for hours to see the results. Later that same month, the Tate Modern had six of the world's biggest names in street art decorate the outside of their museum and the thousands of Londoners who walked the Thames that summer could not help but look at the work.

Thanks to a dedicated fan-base and a number of talented artists, street art has become one of the most powerful and influential art movements so far in this century.
