COVID-19 has disrupted a wide range of activities, and art (in its different forms) has not escaped its effects. Galleries and museums have closed their doors, conventions and conferences have been suspended, and the few cinemas that remain are recording staggering losses. But many street artists continue to pour their talent onto murals, conveying very clear messages: criticism of the political class, rejection of "panic buying", and the need to stay at home to defeat the virus.
Famous characters wearing surgical masks, heads of state with clown noses, representations of the virus, rolls of toilet paper, beer bottles, and basic requests: Stay home, wash your hands.
Street artists around the world have recognized the impact of the coronavirus and incorporated it into their latest creations. In them they convey all their doubts and concerns, the feeling that the world will never be the same, that it will get worse before it gets better, and that current systems will be questioned more than ever. But there are the colors, the shapes, the creativity and the inspiration. Today we will share all that with you.
