The street artist and DJ Alec Monopoly, who is this year's Opera Ball star guest in the Lugner box, will spray a several-meter-tall graffiti portrait of Richard Lugner on the outer wall of Lugner City on Wednesday.
That would have been to Richard Lugner's taste: On Wednesday afternoon, this year's Opera Ball guest of Lugner City, the street artist and DJ Alec Monopoly, will spray a several-meter-tall graffiti portrait of the builder who passed away in the summer on an outer wall of the shopping center. The finished work will then be publicly presented at 3:00 PM, as it was announced.
"We are pleased to offer all visitors a unique spectacle. This painting is a tribute to my father," explained Jacqueline Lugner to the APA.
But that's not the only appearance of the American: At 6:00 PM, Monopoly is set to showcase his street art to the audience at the main square of Lugner City - while simultaneously accompanying himself musically as a DJ. Afterwards, a non-media public VIP event is scheduled.
Alec Monopoly is the pseudonym of an anonymous street and graffiti artist from the USA. He became known for his works that use the well-known Monopoly man from the board game as a motif.
