On this tour through the old town, along the Limmat and in the university quarter, you will get to know the oldest and tiniest street art in Zurich.
Behind these works of art is Harald Nägeli aka the Sprayer of Zurich, who practised civil disobedience from 1977 onwards and lived his vision of ‘art for all’ publicly on the streets and corners of Zurich.
In contrast, we get to know the rather young street artist Ben Wilson aka Chewing Gum Man from London, who immortalises his artworks on the inner-city eyesores of the Western consumer world: his canvases are petrified chewing gums on asphalt.
