Icons of Urban Art 2023-2024

A special exhibition at the Kyoto Kyocera Museum of Art

Venue: Kyoto City Kyocera Museum of Art When: Oct 20th - Jan 8th 2024

Urban art is something you can often find in public spaces, and it encompasses everything from graffiti and murals to stencils and installations. It's a genre that's often appreciated for its cultural commentary, and a special exhibition taking place at the Kyoto Kyocera Museum of Art is set to explore it in detail.

The Icons of Urban Art exhibition will include works from big names in the field, including Banksy, JR, Barry McGee, and Richard Hambleton, and will cover an incredible four decades of the street art movement.

Adult admission to the exhibition is priced at 1800 JPY.
