ALTERNATIVE ART Street Art Walking Tour of East London with Famed Street Artist

MORE ABOUT OUR PARTNER

From the moment he landed from Zimbabwe, Karim Samuels was drawn to London’s graffiti and street art. An active street artist and scene expert, much of Karim’s art can be seen embellishing walls across the capital and using his incredible knowledge, he leads highly respected workshops for clients such as the BBC. A focal point for graffiti writers and street artists, East London gives a snapshot of a movement that’s evolving day by day. Given its proximity to the City, rich cultural history and status as the UK's tech hub, it's easy to see why it's such a fertile setting. On a walk around the east end, Karim will uncover the many layers of urban art, introducing the key players and notable pieces of work, and discuss how artists tread the line between commercial success and ‘keeping it real’, as more and more underground work is absorbed into the mainstream. Karim’s enthusiasm and passion for urban art is infectious, which stems from his insane knowledgeable of and background in architecture. The artist will inspire you to look more closely at the astonishing array of urban interventions across the capital and to fine-tune your eye on the street.
