This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Are painting in the street a form of art evolution? Many people see them and think those are acts of vandalism. But what if we see them as a new form of art expression?

Cofounder of Madrid Street Art Project, working in partnership dissemination, promotion and enhancement of the urban art through guided tours, educational activities, workshops and projects in collaboration with artists. In the last year has organized and coordinated "Muros Tabacalera" (a sample of urban art in the heart of Madrid) and is currently working on an urban art project for Metro de Madrid.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
