What were once gray and boring streets are now places full of color thanks to 137 urban artists, who, under a series of calls from the Mayor's Office of Bogotá and the District Institute of the Arts, Idartes, participated in ten projects to promote responsible urban art.
“Responsible urban art is a process in which, with my collective Demental and ABM, we have been concerned about training the new generations and the legacy we leave; we talk to them about valuing each place we paint. Spaces with this aesthetic can solve conflicts, we have recovered dangerous areas, the environment changes because the street fills with color, people stop to take photos or videos from their cars,” says Fode Barrio, one of the three artists to intervene with his work on a facade on Comuneros Avenue.
