Where On Earth Have You Been?


A lot will be written about the visual artists working today. This is true about any era of Art History and this period is no exception. Mather:Kunst in conjunction with Streetlab, tries to capture these great artists of our time in an exhibition: Where On Earth Have You Been?.

May 7th is the opening of the new exhibition at Streetlab Projectspace Amsterdam. The exhibition features art work from a huge array of contemporary artists from around the globe.

The forthcoming installment of this survey at
Streetlab highlights work from more than 80 contemporary artists. Work from, for example, Shepard Fairey, Banksy, Blek Le Rat, Ryan McGinnes, Evan Hecox, Jim Houser and Cody Hudson is represented here.

The goal of this survey is to educate about the importance of these artists and their respective movements in contemporary art. Movements that grow out of a DIY lifestyle, jap pop culture, graffiti culture, stencil art culture, street art culture, skateboarding culture, design meets fine art culture and any other number of subcultures that penetrate our visual landscape everywhere and everyday.
