Mural exhibition in Liège.
In 1947, three young artists Louis Deltour, Edmond Dubrunfaut and Roger Somville signed the manifest giving birth to "Forces murales". Engaged artists, they aimed their art to serve the people. They find their inspiration in people’s lives, work, struggles, tragedies, victories and hope. They revived the art of tapestry and Muralism in Belgium. Collective and active, their expression was also fundamentally political. Although the adventure of the group Forces murales ended in 1959, their ideal leaves its mark on their art production long after.

Study about the most commonly used letters by Parisian graffiti writers.
"The ten most commonly used letters by Parisian graffiti writers were identified for further study (A,E,I,K,N,O,R,S,T and U). From each letter grouping, eighteen tags were isolated to represent the diversity and range of that specific character. These sets are not intended to display the "best" graffiti tags in Paris, but rather the aim is to highlight the diversity of forms ranging from upper case to lowercase, simple to complex and legible to cryptic." Now on display at Fondation Cartier's Born In The Streets - Graffiti exhibition until November 29, 2009.

Brussels spray paint museum
In 2007, about 1,500 square meters of the stop’s wall were legally covered in by 60 graffiti artists. Entitled “The Walk”, the project was assessed positively, both by locals and tram passengers. Because of the tremendous response, the authorities decided to extend the project by another 3,000 square meters in order to create the continent’s biggest graffiti fresco.
The organization Tarantino coordinate the works. Set up to keep Brussels youngsters off the street, Tarantino is devoted to legal street graffiti. The organisation managed to get hold of some of Belgium’s best graffiti artists.
Surrounded by the Atomium, the Heysel Stadium and the Japanese Tower, the tram stop is located in Laken (Brussels, Belgium).
