Graffiti and Street Art Guided Tour - 23 October

US$17

We´ll stroll through the colorful streets of Palermo in Buenos Aires on a guided walking tour. During the tour, we'll see thought-provoking graffiti and street art while learning about the neighborhood’s history from your guide. Let's travel back in time to the 1920s and understand the political movements gaining traction in Argentina at the time. We´ll discover how graffiti was seen as a political endorsement and how it was used as propaganda and for election campaigns. Then, we'll learn about the arrival of aerosol paints in 1969 and the influence of a different military government. The guide will tell us how the new material allowed messages to be written much faster than before and how it impacted the urban movements during the 1970s. We´ll enjoy the tour while listening to stories about how Argentinians became progressively more involved in the act of protesting and the social conflict of the time.
