Public Art in Vitoria









Public art is  celebrated joyfully in Vitoria. Everywhere we visited were installations, murals and sculptures.  The city provides a stunning location to show-case local talent as many of the pieces were created by residents or had a local theme to them.  And what was surprising was that despite the political graffiti that appears on hoardings and walls, none of the art had been damaged.  The residents are rightfully proud of their city and heritage and celebrate it in a stylish way.  There is even a group, IMVG,  that promotes collaboration between professional artists and residents to produce stunning,visual interpretations
