On the 1st April 2015 IKEA are launching a diverse poster collection bringing an urban sub-culture normally reserved to the streets, into people's homes. Commissioning some raw talent from around the world to create 12 street art posters. that bring a piece of rebellion, normally found on the likes of Berlin side streets into everyday lives.
The popularity of street art is rising, moving into the high class art world. IKEA in a way are fighting against it becoming a luxury commodity purchased in the latest art show. They are keeping it rebellious, street art is meant to be free or in this case, at only €15 a poster, it's affordable for those who appreciate the awesome art but can't afford the high class price tags. I know I'm going to grab one.
