So tonight I got to go out and do something really fun with a coworker. A few people had told me about this, for lack of a better term, art battle that goes down in Prague/other European cities every year. Its called Secret Walls. Basically there are teams all over the world. Events crop up all sort of major cities and two artist battle it out at these events. They each start out with a blank canvas and then have 90 minutes to draw something. No sketches, no forethought. Black and white only. There are the pics I took at the event.
The place the event was held at was called Nod, and yes, that is a giant bone floating in the air outside the building.
Two blank canvases! 2 artists :D
After 90 minutes, the contest is over! Two judges are brought on stage and write secretly who they believe should win. Then they crowd gets to vote. They pull out a noise measuring device and have the crowd cheer and scream for who they want. In the end, the guy on the left won. Here is a better close up of his work.
I wonder if they have a US team! :D
