Sarajevo Street Art & Graffiti Workshop Funky Half Day Tour of Sarajevo

First part of the tour will cover the Sarajevo street art attractions in the old part and centre of Sarajevo. By covering those places you will see the evolution of actual street art scene and perhaps if we get lucky will see some artists in action.

Places we shall cover will be popular regions of Fis Bock and Papagajka and few others. At those places we shall have opportunity to see amazing murals of:
• Vučko - stylized wolf used as a mascot of 14th Winter Olympics held in Sarajevo in February 1984,
• Karim Zaimović - Sarajevo journalist and writer who died in final days of Siege of Sarajevo but left an amazing trace in this city,
• David Bowie (World famous singer who tried to conduct a concert in besieged Sarajevo).

In general, tour will cover whole range of historical facts of street art and stories of origins of street art globally and in Sarajevo (which came here with UN peacekeepers during the days of Siege of Sarajevo during the 1990ies). We will talk about the past days, present times and future of this movement. So, you will not only see, but also hear a lot of amazing stories, with assistance of one of the Sarajevo’s most prominent local graffiti and street art artists who has been around for many years.

Second part of the tour will take us to some bit more remote parts of Sarajevo where local artists could do their work in peace and relaxation. Abandoned places like Olympic Bobsled (Graffiti and Street Art Mecca), Access - former military barracks Marshall Tito, Crni Vrh - Gorica and few others, are not only rich with street art, but are also amazing monuments of Yugoslavian brutalist architecture and stunning memorials to the past times.

Special focus is on Sarajevo 1984 abandoned Olympic bobsled which is by far the World’s most amazing street art and graffiti location where distinguished graffiti artists like HONET and STAKA were once “performing”. It is home place to hundreds of amazing works of art, and surely is unmissable location in Sarajevo for many reasons.
