A tour in the gallery among the works of some of the protagonists of Street Art will allow the visitor to discover the evolution of the movement.

Many claim that urban art was born in New York in the late 1970s and developed in Europe in the following decade, and JonOne, a Dominican graffiti artist born in Harlem, contributed to the transition in the late 1980s. From tags on walls and trains to exhibitions in galleries and museums, JonOne's style between Abstract Expressionism and Graffitism is appreciated for the energy his works give off.
In 1989, Shepard Fairey, known as Obey Giant, made his entrance into the world of Street Art with his sticker campaign André the Giant has a Possè. With an incisive and powerful style with a minimalist palette, his works often invite the viewer to take a civic stance on socio-political issues. Obey reached the peak of his success in 2008 when the work 'HOPE', a portrait of Barack Obama, became the emblem of the presidential campaign. Fairey has created more than 100 walls worldwide and his works can be found in the collections of prestigious museums.
Esteemed friend of Shepard Fairey and one of the most prolific contemporary urban artists is D*Face. His style is influenced by Liechtestein's Pop Art and the language of advertising and comics. The artist defines his works as aPOPcalyptic: a provocation to our society that D*Face investigates through dysfunctional characters in constant pursuit of fame and excessive materialism.

Moving on to the Italian scene worth mentioning are Sten Lex, 2501, Miaz Brothers and Agostino Iacurci.
The Roman duo Sten Lex gained recognition in the 2000s thanks to the stencil poster, a brand new technique of their own invention that takes the heritage of the stencil and surpasses it. Their artistic value was also recognised by Banksy who invited them to participate in the Cans Festival in 2008.
From Rome to Milan, 2501 has distinguished himself for his artistic research; what counts is gestuality, the movement of the hand on the surface so that what makes his style immediately recognisable is a sinuous line.
Starting out from Milan, the Miaz Brothers live and work between London and Valencia. Their art is the result of a long research process; they experimented with different techniques and then concentrated on painting, driven by the desire to bring new suggestions to a field with a great tradition behind it. With a completely new technique, they have renewed their approach to portraiture. The duo works with airbrush and acrylics, creating works with blurred contours. Enigmatic and suggestive, the figures engage the viewer and challenge his perception, never allowing themselves to be completely defined.
Iacurci, one of the most promising artists on the international scene, is also on show. In his works, synthetic forms and brilliant colours merge into an essential language capable of guiding multiple levels of interpretation.
