Following the 1948 Bogotazo riots, Bogotá’s elite migrated north, transitioning neighborhoods like Teusaquillo into a hub of Tudor, Art Deco, and Modernist styles. These historic structures now serve as the primary canvas for the city's most influential artists. On this Bogotá Street Art Tour, graffiti is the protagonist. We use the walls to read the city’s evolution, exploring how the transit veins and political shifts of the 20th century created the unique surfaces Bogotá Graffiti claims today.
Highlights
- The Threshold: Start at Colpatria to see the downtown graffiti scene before transitioning into the modern San Diego neighborhood and across Parque Bavaria.
- Political Walls: Explore the Armenia neighborhood and the monumental murals along 26th Avenue (El Dorado). These are high-impact works heavily charged with political context.
- The Taxonomy of the Street: We break down the technical and social differences between graffiti, street art, and muralism as we walk.
- A Piece of History: Pass the original site of Visaje Graffiti—the first street art gallery in Bogotá and a landmark for the local movement.
- Inhabiting the City: We finish by walking down the Arzobispo River canal into Park Way. Grab a beer or coffee and inhabit the city like a local rather than just passing through it.
