Tania Candiani – Habita Intervention Part 2
Rafael Micha and his team at Hotel Habita showed that they are ahead of the game in terms of what is happening and supporting new artists when they commissioned this intervention by Tania Candiani and her team of street artists. It raised a storm of protests in Mexico City. All the arguments that resurfaced this year (3 years later) when Deitch launched MOCA’s “Art in the Streets” were raised.
Looking back on this project and how I made feel from the moment I got out of the taxi and looked up, to sitting in my room and looking through my personal see through part of the piece one thing seems clear to me: Street Art is art, like it or not!

Nice! Where is this building located in Mexico City? And I agree with you… street art or any form of creative expression is ART to me. Thank you for sharing.
