Moving between graffiti, wall art, video art, performance and other expressions of urban art, the work of Suso33 (Madrid, 1973) reivindicates public space as the center of artistic life and as the essential milieu for communication between artist and audience. Well-known in the street art scene as the creator in the 1980s of the plastas – paint stains that have become iconic in Spanish urban culture – since 1984 he has developed an intense activity, with interventions in over 50 cities, among which London, New York or Shanghai, and over 70 shows. The latest is a retrospective exhibition, the first one up to now, organized by the CEART of Fuenlabrada, in Madrid.
