Street Art, Stokes Croft

Street Art, Stokes Croft


I owe you a belated post about the incredible Street Art tour I was given of Stokes Croft, Bristol, which thanks to the elusive graffiti artist Banksy is one of Europe's best places to see great work. Studying History of Art in Bristol is so amazing, because the contemporary art scene is so full of life. We may not have easy access to the National Gallery, Tate Modern and Saatchi that London has to offer, but with a little extra effort and digging around there is a treasure trove waiting to be discovered right on our doorstep. We were so lucky that the tour was led by an extremely knowledgable Berlin-based street art expert who guided us along alley ways and down into warehouses to be inspired by the creativity of some of our generations most talented, but anonymous artists.
