Last month, I visited Milan, Italy. During my visit, Loopcolors (a street art festival that is sometimes known as Looperfest) was taking place. Some of the artists are English, and as I follow a couple of them on social media, I was able to find out where the festival was taking place and went to have a look on my last day, a day after the painting had finished. The location of the artwork is north of the central station in Milan but is a far walk from there.
LoopColors this year focused on a theme "Power of Women" for 2018, with many of the street art pieces created with this theme.
The below image of a female boxer was created by King Raptuz, an artist from Italy who works in the design and art industry in between painting walls worldwide. The technique he created is known as "Broken Window Futurism", which is a fragmented abstract image.
The below image is called "El joven Cesar y su Mascota", and it is by street artist Belin. Belin comes from Spain and creates abstract portraits.
The below grafitti is a tag by RASKO, a grafitti artist from Moscow, Russia.
The woman on the right in the above photograph continues to the photograph below, and this piece is called "Power of Women" and was painted by Brainmash.
The above piece is by Mr. Cenz, a British street artist that I have previously covered a lot on my blog. To see more by this artist, see this post about Recent Street art in 2018 by Mr. Cenz.
The above image is painted by street grafitti artist HelioBray and is a colourful tag. The artist is from Portugal.
The above portrait of a young girl is created by street artist SEF, an artist from Chile who creates photorealistic portraits. The above is very eye-catching.
The above pink woman is created by Georgi Dimitrov Erase (Arsek Erase), a Bulgarian street artist who started to paint street art in 2000 and creates colourful and bright characters with an element of humour. His take on "Power of Women" shows a pink lady.
The above photograph shows the image by Dan Kitchener, British artist who paints Asian female portraits and backdrops of dark city streets in which Tokyo often features with a glow of car headlights and neon signs.
For those wishing to visit this artwork in person, Zuretti61 is the location of the street art festival for Loopcolors Looperfest 2018. The street art is located behind the building and just off the main street. I would suggest not to walk from the main central station as it is a very long walk.
