Chalk Festival 2011 Sarasota.mov

Artists today beat to their own drum and the historical culture that held onto the art form for hundreds of years is changing and changing fast. This area will show all the varied movements taking place around the world with artists wanting to express their individuality. Artists in this area can start Friday Morning, November 4th and finish November 6th 2011. A segment of the festival will honor and recreate the first street painting festival that started in Mantua, Italy in 1973 the Grazie di Curtatone. With the desire to preserve the street painting art form that virtually disappeared after WWII, the Mantua festival invited the last known artists with the oldest being in his 90′s.
