THE WALL

(in post-production)

In the summer of 1967, racial division and gang violence was on the rise in Chicago. More murders had occurred in the city that year than in any year past.

A collective of young black artists gathered at the side of an abandoned building on the Southside with an idea: what if art could somehow change the trajectory? In the following weeks, they set out to create the first 'Street Art' in the country.

The Wall is the story of a summer that changed the city and the course of art history.
