Street Art Museum Amsterdam 2016

SAMA co-hosted Angelo Campos together with Amersfoort Kunst-Hallen in a summer of 2016 during Brazilian Olympics. The emphasis at Amsterdam were on ecology, sustainability and good living.

ANGELO CAMPOS is famous for his participation in FAVELA PAINTING project by Dutch Duo in Rio Brazil. Here the challenge was to put spotlight on the first self sustainable apartment at the top.

The workshop and social engagement with the neighbours as well as politicians helped us to get to know the area on the 'the other side of the bridge' better.

BTOY uses electricty boxes as a canvas for her intricately hand-cut stencil portraits.

"Between Two Walls" is another project with BTOY in upcoming neighbourhood of De Hallenkwartier in Amsterdam West. This idea came from local residents after they heard about FIND ME IF YOU CAN game.

This is of Amy Johnson, who was the first female pilot to fly solo from Britain to Australia.

When BTOY finished the piece, she smiled to me with "These are the Soviet Colours".

The area were we painted is also called Writers Quarter and all the streets are celebrated with portraits of writers. Only 1 is female. With the theme Diversity, we went for female pioneers.

Btoy made a joke that "this one got the Soviet colours". It is true, that the artist is inspired by a certain rhythm of Soviet Posters.

Pola Negri was a Polish actress who took America by storm in the silent film era, best known for her femme fatale roles.

The impressive colours coupled with clean lines creates an vision rather than a picture.

In a neighbourhood with a large Turkish population, Tulips represent not only Holland, but its Turkish origin.

Every year our foundation hosts 10 international work experience students based on skills we need to realise our strategy. Mont Blanc Savoie meets Florence - Universities of Europe in Amsterdam.

Bauhaus colours and thick black lines echo work of famous Dutch painter - Piet Mondrian.

Find Me If You Can series - Dominos by OakOak

One week take over of the advertising pole.

Find the missing teeth! or brush regularly.

Scissors was a one hour wonder and made only for the photograph, exploring the concept of ephemeral nature of street art as a whole.

In a small discrepancy with Stadgenoot housing co-oporation, we had to remove a large majority of this artwork, leaving just the small character behind. Hence the title: Who's not Afraid of Stadgenoot.

Find Me If You Can - Pacman

"I would like to meet a guy who laid out the ghosties next to the Pacman" exclaimed OakOak and we new we have a hit!

OakOak is an interesting old but new artist on the block. He does not come from traditional graffiti or street art background but excels in his eclectic mix of situationism and cartoon/illustration.

APC is a collaboration work by Zas and Mutanto to coincide with their exhibition Grafitti Scapes, hosted at SAMA.

On the Wall of Fame at Street Art Museum Amsterdam's head quarters, this artwork is a collaboration by two members of graffiti crew APC; a crew comprising of over 50 international street artists.

The Train Lodge at Sloterdijk train station exhibits the work of Kenor. Trains are my passion, exclaims Kenor, artist whose origins are graffiti, and to have time to do what I want is remarkable.

"Speed" is the word I would describe Kenor. But a gentle one. A colourful journey of the energy of speed. In 2017 Kenor designed Massa's Helmet for Formula 1, and yet he still paints trains illegally!

This is the first legal train in Amsterdam which is part of the official collection. The carriage is painted on both sides and is a combo of two, three, yet one artwork. Genesis. Kenor.

Immaculate execution and an ability to mix original, old, 'ugly', and shiny new, clean is an art of Kenor.

The plastic pink roses match the colour of the tulips, and the red butterfly resonates with the signature on the bottom of the wall. Stones were tied to the bouquet to ensure that the wind won't blow them away.

The following artworks are all from a street art trail in Schipol Airport called Office Walk with a Twist, by Sandrine Boulet.

Professor Love is a kind touch to the grey metal and brick environment filled with real people.

Hey You, stop running and give me a hug! Unusual CAT (call to action) in a middle of a grey parking area! #officewalkwithatwist

The Dark Snoopy is a rock-n-roll inspiration based on the 'ear of the dog'. There is also a secret Golden Snoopy which you have to find all by yourself.

Write your own story. On the bike path Sandrine Boulet noticed a spot that can be turned into another kind of journey.

Inspired the the line of light bulbs and Star Wars, Sandrine Boulet turned a symbolic decorative light into an animation.

She used mixed technique - stencil, tape, spray, lettering.

SPOT Schiphol community choose Van Gogh hat vs Magritte's hat :) We painted the vision.

Hello Hamsterdame, sits just outside the gallery on our Wall of Fame.

Sandrine Boulet has also left us a couple of presents outside of the official work load. Hamster-dame and Keep On Dreaming are a beautiful addition to SAMA collection.
