The London Police is a collective based in Amsterdam. They have been working together for several years to bring their Street Art to cities all over the world, and they've been quite successful. They  push Urban Art a huge step away from graffiti tagging toward a unique brand of symbolic urban communication.

Flying Fortress, born and raised in Germany, is fortified with all sorts of funk and measure. The bold lines, colors and compositions are unmistakable. You don't want to miss the invasion.

Galo is an Italian artist whose work has developed into a civilization of creatures that are sad, angry, curious and confused. He wanders the planet, performing, putting on workshops and exhibitions and chronicles his experiences on the walls where he works and resides.

Pez is a graffiti artist from Barcelona. He began painting graffiti in the late 1990’s, and over time his work has morphed into the pez (Spanish for fish) character he is known for today.
