Carlo McCormick

MAGIC CITY is always changing; the entire city has become an artists' studio, an urban museum of the imagination. More than 40 of the world's best street artists specially painted, sprayed, scratched, glued, or even crocheted for this tailor-made city of dreams. With every stopover, new works will appear as others disappear, just as in the streets of any city. In each host city, the organizers support new collaborations, guest artists, and happenings. MAGIC CITY - THE ART OF THE STREET documents the beginning of this exceptional touring exhibition.
