It all started back in 1997 in the city of Wiesbaden, Germany with the availability of a huge abandonned area known as the Schlachthof Wiesbaden. Back in the days the legendary „Int. Wall Street Meeting” welcomed more than 25.000 visitors from all over Germany, Europe and the rest of the world to attend and to enjoy art in the process of creation. Because of its authentical style and its message the Meeting is mentioned as the best Graffiti-Event ever happened. Its worldwide reputation and the enourmous feedback inspired us in 2002 to spread its message all over the world which led to the founding of the “Int. Meeting Of Styles”. What´s the MOS about? The “International Meeting of Styles” (MOS) is an international network of graffiti artists and aficionados that began in Wiesbaden, Germany in 2002. Brought together and inspired by their passion for graffiti, MOS aims to create a forum for the international art community to communicate, assemble and exchange ideas, works and skills, but also to support intercultural exchange. In the spirit of cooperation and promotion, since 2002 MOS has launched hundreds events in many countries across Europe, Russia, Asia and the Americas. These events have sponsored thousands of Graffiti-Artists from all over the world and throughout the years have attracted hundreds of thousands spectators, providing a focal point for urban street culture and graffiti art in order to reach a larger community. The “Meeting Of Styles” as its name says, is a meeting of styles, created to support the netting of the international art-community. It is not meant to be a forum only for classical and traditonal Graffiti-Artists and -Writers, but a podium to present all different types of urban art! This is why we are open for all types and styles. How can we sponsor MOS? Beside of the dedication and love necessary to organize the MOS, we are also depending on public funds and sponsors which is not easy to gain. As we are non-profit organised we need to cover all costs by the help of sponsors and public fundings. Therefore we are thankful to receive any links or contacts to companies and institutions who might be interested in supporting us. If you want to support the MOS in any way send an E-Mail to [email protected]. We offer different types of sponsorships according to specific needs and interests. www.meetingofstyles.com (The international team)
