What is SAFEWALLS?

SAFEWALLS is an art project curated by Cirque du Soleil. It celebrates Cirque du Soleil’s roots—the street—as well as the creative freedom and raw energy associated with street arts by pairing up with artists all over the world to create art posters inspired by its shows.


Fusing the fascinating world of Cirque du Soleil with the freedom and energy of street arts, the final artworks will be used for the production of limited edition, signed and numbered posters, and open edition screen prints, available for sale via its website, safewalls.org. Artists are given carte blanche—i.e. they have complete creative freedom in producing their show-inspired works.
