Street Fart, an exhibition by the Why Style collective
Tentoonstelling 29-11-2013 t/m 01-12-2013 > Amsterdam
Why Style is a collective that emerged from the nineties graffiti movement in Rome. Their upcoming exhibition at Unruly Gallery in Amsterdam is called 'Street Fart'. This is their statement:
“We were writers and some people think that every ex-writer that makes art is a street artist. That is not the case. So, is the name 'Street Fart' a provocation to the street art world? Not entirely. We named our collective ‘Why Style’ because we love to question things. We like to have doubts. Our dogma is ‘always doubt’.”
Of the five artists (Pane, Joe, Nico, Stand, Scarful) featured at Unruly Gallery, the first three reside in Amsterdam and the other two in Rome. In the exhibition 'Street Fart' the artists present their latest work; sculptures, etchings, risographs and drawings on paper.

And we create. Art. The ultimate comment on life and its endless perspectives.
But. We don't like the art world. We don't like the schisms, the categories, the feuds, the fried air that's being presented in galleries and museums like some tasty amuse gueule. There is a self proclaimed elite that’s holding art hostage.
Until Unruly. We're taking no prisoners. No government handouts either. Forget words like graffiti, street art and counter culture. Look at the individual artists. There are no words. There are no images. Only everything in between.
Look us in the face, see our smile. Share our love for what we love. Be unafraid. Be unruly.
