Lisbon Street Art 3 December 2010

IrishStreetArt.com’s latest international feature is Portugal’s gem, Lisbon. ‘Lisboa’ has seen street artists come from all over the world to leave their mark. We were lucky enough to photograph the work of heavy weight names like Brazil’s Os Gémeos, Italy’s Blu and INSA from the UK but the city was also brimming with local beautiful pieces. In fact it’s hard to walk more than a few footsteps in some of the city’s districts without coming across a paste-up or stencil. Even the room in our hotel had a graffitied canvas hanging on their walls.

Boasting great alternative tours, brilliant art exhibition venues and boutique hostels Lisbon is very visitor friendly so we totally recommend taking a trip to the most westerly capital in Europe.
