THE ART, MUSIC & CULTURE OF THE STREETS
BEYOND THE STREETS at
SAATCHI GALLERY
From the Gallery:
The landmark exhibition traces six decades of the extraordinary influence of street culture on contemporary art, photography, fashion, music and activism. The story is told through innovators and legends from graffiti, street art, hip-hop, 2Tone and a wider ecosystem of people willing to challenge boundaries and take risks, reshaping the
world around them. These movements may take different forms, but they share the same core impulse to create, disrupt, and be heard on their own terms.
BEYOND THE STREETS transforms Saatchi Gallery into an immersive journey through the history of street culture and its ongoing influence. Spanning more than ten rooms and bringing together over 100 international creators, the exhibition features paintings, sculptures, fashion, ephemera, large-scale installations, site-specific interventions, immersive environments, historic works, new commissions, rare archives, and interactive experiences. Together, these works – many of which have been created specifically for the show – create a multilayered portrait of street culture: one that can be explored, experienced, and felt rather than simply viewed.
