Ahmedabad city. Art on the street walls


The Ahmedabad city street walls are awash with a roit of colours.
The A.M.C recently organised an event to paint the blank walls on streets in Satellite, Maninagar (Kankaria) and near the University Ground.
 
Artists & locals from the city, as well as Artists from Kutch were invited to paint.

 
People Stopping by to watch the artists at work.

 
An interesting range of styles adorn the walls. 

 



 

It was great to see the space transform in a couple of days. The City definitely looks more lively and it's great that the public gets of daily dose of art as they drive by .
