Documentary Screening – Kroonjuwelen – Melbourne

Documentary Screening – Kroonjuwelen – Melbourne

By now you’re all probably aware of the Upside Down Tour from Amsterdam artist, Niels “Shoe” Meulman (who we interviewed last week!), which had a successful opening up in Sydney, and will be opening up in Melbourne tomorrow night.

There is, however, another part of the tour – and that is a very special screening of the documentary “Kroonjuwelen“.  This is a chance to see the origins of graffiti not only in Amsterdam, but also the beginnings of a variety of styles that swept across Europe.

“The Calligraffiti Upside Down Tour’ is happy to present at the Rooftop Cinema in Melbourne the first ever screening in this part of the world of the Dutch documentary Kroonjuwelen (Crown Jewels), about the history of graffiti in Amsterdam, from the punk days in the 70’s and 80’s to the roaring train bombing times of the 90’s.”

“Melbourne’s a street art capital, but so is Amsterdam, which since the late 1970s has been a canvas for graffiti legends including Rhyme, Shoe, Delta, Again, High, Zap, Quik and Dr Rat.”

This is seriously old school,  and is a perfect continuation from Shoe’s show tomorrow night. As there will be limited seating, you should probably go and book a ticket now so you don’t miss out!
