Improper Walls is a non-profit organization run by a team of international young women. The space
differs from other art galleries for not taking any commission from the sold artworks. The concept
consists in having a casual space that shuns away from the typical “sterile white cube gallery environment”
in order to make it more appealing to a public which otherwise might not show interest for fine arts. As a
gallery, Improper Walls is specialized in illustration, graphic design and street art, presenting international
and Austrian artists to a widely heterogeneous audience.
FESTIVAL CALLE LIBRE
PERIOD: 10/08 to 13/08
(http://www.callelibre.at/)
The festival for urban aesthetics focuses on bringing contemporary forms of graffiti and street art onto
curated walls throughout the city. Through the artistic interventions Calle Libre encourages a dialogue
between the public space and the public eye. The public realm is the festival’s framework and the hub
where cultural perspectives, personal opinions and artistic expressions can be recognized. Furthermore,
the festival is accompanied by exhibitions, panel discussions, workshops and evening festivities to
celebrate the intercultural interchange.
JAN ARNOLD GALLERY (Museumsquartier)

ABOUT THE ARTIST
Giuliano Martinuzzo’s art invites its appreciator to a universe of compositions exploring the complexity of
the human mind. He engraves the meeting of abstract and organic through a mysterious and subliminal
tracing. His works are light, fluid and expressed in curves. Reflecting the most primal of organic shapes,
the line, Giuliano calls to the unconscious, to the origins of life and thought. Born in São Caetano do Sul, in
the Brazilian state of São Paulo, Giuliano has, since his infancy, been submerged in compositions
belonging to a parallel reality, a reflex of his timeless and introverted worldview that, through the years,
translated into an explosion of indecipherable shapes representing Nature, a topic that he has always
been intrigued by. The simple traits, in sharp contrast with complex forms have ever since become part of
him: the vice and obsession to find the perfect curve are applied in attempts that intrigue yet please the
observer. His artistic career has developed from a troubled and non-conventional path, torn between
fulfilling his thirst for creation and originality and his formal education on the field of interior design:
Giuliano started his career experimenting on his friend’s apartment walls, and soon was working together
with architects of great renown in Brazil, gradually participating in collective exhibitions in Brazilian art
galleries and interior design shows, being recognized and praised by his technique and minimalist and
particular style.
