The Official Catalogue of the 2025 Exhibition at Markthalle Chemnitz. Spanning nearly 500 pages, this extensive catalogue documents the HALLENKUNST project, capturing the energy of the landmark exhibition at Markthalle Chemnitz (European Capital of Culture 2025) for years to come. The publication mirrors the original structure of the double exhibition: It opens with the HALLENKUNST Timeline "From New York To Europe," tracing the journey of graffiti on trains from its 1970s roots in NYC to its digital evolution today. The second half presents the Group Exhibition, featuring positions by over 40 international artists and collectives who demonstrate how a subculture has transformed into a leading force within contemporary art. More than just a documentation, this catalogue is a premium collector’s item, merging graffiti culture and aesthetics on different art genres with master-level storytelling.
