Abstract

The May Lane project began in Sydney in 2005 when Tugi Balog turned the walls of his business into an outdoor gallery space for street artists. The May’s collection now consists of over 100 panels by celebrated Australian & international street artists who have worked in May Lane. MAY’S: The May Lane Street Art Project features a selection of 25 works from this collection and explores the history and evolution of the Australian street art movement with particular reference to the May Lane project. A partnership project between Bathurst Regional Art Gallery and the May Lane Arts Association Inc, MAY’S is the first comprehensive exhibition of street art to tour nationally.
