  1. Street Art as Political Currency

    SFUFF 2018 / 120 mins
    Murals are a powerful form of art that expose us to beauty while oftentimes critiquing political and social conditions. The act of painting murals often brings people together through a sense of affinity and shared purpose, while at the same time offering challenges to regimes of power, expressing dissent, of simply revealing alternate points of view. This program is collection of shorts focusing on visual and graphic art in the public realm as a way of expressing and cultivating social capital; and will explore how mural artists around the world are engaged in a practice that provokes and unites.

    In This Program: Not With Fire, but with Paint, Painting the Town, Concrete Canvas, The Dream Kontinues
