The Un-hidden Street Art in Romania book files – Cluj-Napoca
The first edition of the Un-hidden Street Art in Romania book is here to help you discover independent art in public spaces. This list walks you through our Cluj-Napoca street art files, where we collected and mapped works by KERO, OCU, LOST OPTICS, OBIE PLATON, WAONE INTERESNI KAZKI (UA), KGES, STICK, ZW, all recently photographed by our local collaborator and Komiti crew member, Anita Jambor. While our list is not exhaustive, it is open to new suggestions and lacks the excellent bold paste-ups we saw on our last visit in Cluj-Napoca.
