The city centre of Łódź is turning into a huge gallery of street art. Eight new large-format pictures have appeared on the walls of Łódź this year. In total there are already thirty scattered around the town. The third Urban Forms festival has just opened and perhaps no other city in Poland can pride itself on such an amazing outdoor gallery of murals by artists from all over the world. There are paintings by the Spanish Aryz, Kenor and 3ttman, the Chilean Inti, the Brazilian twin brothers Os Gemeos, the Belgian ROA, the French Remed and the Polish M-City, Tone, Proembrion, Etam Cru, Sepe and Chazme.
