Paris: Street Art Walking Tour by an Urban Art Expert

About This Experience

Paris was one of the first cities to see urban art flourish on its walls, and your guide is not only passionate about street art, but was a street artist himself in the 1980s. Leave the bustle of the city behind and explore the beautiful secret village of La Butte aux Cailles. You’ll discover tiny houses and gardens on cobbled streets, a world away from the busy capital. You’ll also find murals, wheat-pasted papers and stencil graffiti brightening the streets and filling them with colour. Here you’ll find artworks by both artists of the 1980’s, right up to emerging artists of the present day. Your guide knows many of the artists and will be able to teach you about the works you see, guiding you through the history and techniques of Urban Art in Paris. From Jeff Aérosol and Miss Tic to Le Long and Princess Ecchymose, discover the best of Parisian Street Art and the artists who best represent the ‘French Touch’ and its flagship technique; ‘le pochoir’.
