Graffiti in Beer Sheva

The street art and graffiti scene in Beer sheva is very well developed and presents a large gallery of artwork of various techniques. In this post, I focused only on the Old City area and the Beer sheva Young Center (Herzl 12 St).

On the second floor of the Young Center, I found a large and luxurious complex containing about twenty graffiti pieces by various artists. While it is not on the street, it certainly preserves and sanctifies the language of graffiti. During a walk at the Old City, among the shops, courtyards and parking lots you will find quite a few interesting and varied graffiti artwork.

About me

My name is a Dror Hadadi and I have always loved and been attracted to the subversion art of graffiti. The urban art, which takes place in the public space 24/7, captivates my heart.

In my view, graffiti, is a free entry ticket to a global exhibition that is constantly changing, growing and evolving.

The graffiti creates and drives an artistic dialogue between the viewer, the architecture and the urban life. Sometimes graffiti disrupts, hurts,
and shatters its presence on the wall. Sometimes it brings the public wall to life, allowing us a colorful and exciting glimpse into the graffiti artist's private world – and our own world as viewers.
In both cases, instant communication and dialogue is created between the viewer and the message left for him on the wall.
The graffiti, due to its presence in the urban-public space, engages in dialogue with us on a daily basis, enabling us to communicate with the space near us, which serves as decor for our living and urban environment.

Enjoy!
