It has oscillated between dictatorship and democracy for over a century, and its citizens have faced brutal oppression and economic disaster.

This has given the walls a powerful and symbolic role: they have become the city’s voice. This tradition of expression in public space, of art and activism interweaving, has made the streets of Buenos Aires into a riot of colour and communication, giving the world a lesson in how to make resistance beautiful.
