In September there was the first street art biennale in Moscow called "Artmoshera."
Venue for this event was the whole city: bus shelters, underpasses and parks. Installations, sculptures and graffiti appeared everywhere. Centralized and most ambitious exhibition held in the halls of the center design Artplay.
45 artists from different countries showed graphics, sculpture and monumental painting. Among the participants - Italian Agostino Yakurchi who creates entire animated stories on the walls, street culture fotohroniker 80 Martha Cooper, a Russian street art artist Cyril Who and Reiter, was nominated for the Kandinsky, Michael Bridge.

As part of the Biennale was held educational program: guests attended lectures of curators and gallery owners, master classes urbanists, they met with the participants of the project. In addition, there was an outdoor workshop of urban transformation "Partizaning" under the leadership of the founder of the movement, artist Igor Ponosov.
Despite the fact that quite well-known in certain circles artists participated in the Biennale, in my opinion, this show was very similar to the imaginary very well financed final exhibition of Foundation course at the British Higher School of Art and Design. On one hand it is a very good sign of students' creative potential. On the other hand it is a pity to realise that students could have better conditions to create great art and form a new creative cluster.
