De DesignBattle wordt georganiseerd om (straat)kunstenaars kennis te laten maken met de mogelijkheden van digitale kunst met behulp van Wacom’s pentablets.

De vijf designers hebben 60 minuten de tijd om haar `character` te redesignen op de Bamboo pentablet van Wacom. Claudia is een bekende ontwerpster en heeft veel ervaring met Wacom´s pentablets. Het aanwezige publiek kan live meekijken op vijf grote schermen in de Grote Zaal van Pakhuis de Zwijger. Een professionele vakjury, waaronder INKIE (Banksy´s voormalige rechterhand) uit Londen, beslist uiteindelijk wie de DesignBattle wint.

Drie winnaars krijgen een prijs, w.o. de Bamboo pentablet en een geldprijs.
Na de DesignBattle is de nieuwe documentaire over Utrechts beroemdste streetartist KBTR te zien.

We say 'yet' as a few of our Project Amsterdam Street Art 2011 artists are there to help and give the not 'yet' painted outside walls a nice coat of paint.

Artists: Ottograph, Boxhead, Skount, La Ira and Stookoven.

As part of our Project ASA event you can see these artists at work on Saturday 25th and Sunday 26th June. Some bits and pieces will also be painted the days before.
