Graffiti & street art in the Carmel Market Tel Aviv

The colorful and bustling Carmel Market provides us with a trading arena that has become increasingly touristy over the years. Another tourist element in the streets of the market, is the graffiti and street art that attracts a lot of tourists who document the streets and colors.

You can find the graffiti in the Carmel Market complex on the streets that cross the market and on the small streets in the area (the Kerem Hatyemanim neighborhood). Between the streets are hidden a lot of graffiti works in various techniques. If you are already in the area, it is recommended to enjoy the nearby street art complex located on the Nahalat Binyamin pedestrian.

About Me

My name is Dror Hadadi and I have always loved and been drawn to graffiti and street art – to language, color, subversion and art. Urban art, which exists in public space 24/7, fascinates and captivates my heart.

Graffiti and street art are a free ticket to a global exhibition, which is constantly changing, growing and developing. Graffiti creates and drives an artistic dialogue between the passerby and architecture and urban life. Sometimes graffiti disrupts, harms and etch its presence on the wall. Sometimes it brings the public wall to life, allowing us a colorful and exciting glimpse into the artist’s private world – and into our own world as viewers. In both cases, in graffiti and street art, an immediate communication and dialogue is created between the viewer and the message left for him on the wall. Graffiti and street art that takes place in the urban-public space, maintains a dialogue with us on a daily basis, and allows us to communicate with the space closest to us, which serves as a setting for our living environment and life in the urban space.

Enjoy!
