Street Art at the ArtSpace Exhibition

ArtSpace Cascais was an annual outdoor urban​/​street art exhibition held in the coastal Portuguese town of Cascais, part of a series that ran across several years in the early 2010s. Organized in the town's cultural spaces, it brought together prominent figures from Portugal's contemporary and street art scenes, offering a bridge between urban culture and more traditional gallery-style presentation. The event was documented by Portuguese street art media at the time — the 2010 edition, for example, was highlighted as one of the year's standout art happenings by the blog Stick2Target — and the series continued into subsequent years, with the 2012 edition later listed in the exhibition history of Portuguese urban artist Alexandre Farto, known as Vhils, alongside other international shows he participated in that year. This suggests ArtSpace Cascais functioned as a recurring platform that helped anchor Cascais, a town better known for its museums and coastal tourism, within Portugal's broader contemporary and street art circuit during this period.
