The swiss event is established since 2003 in Winterthur, a city 20km outside Zurich. |
| It has a population of 100.000 and is the sixth largest and one of the fastest growing city in Switzerland. |  |
In the local dialect and by its inhabitants, it is usually abbreviated to Winti. Today Winterthur is a service and high tech industry centre, but many people make use of its proximity to Zurich, which is only 15 minutes by train.
| Winterthur is connected to Germany and Italy by direct trains and enjoys excellent links to Zurich Airport. It is also a regional transportation hub. |  |
The Station of Winterthur is one of the highest frequent Stations of Switzerland. As most cities are running Anti-Graffiti- campaigns it is not easy to find a good venue.
|
 |
After the event moved to Zurich in 2007, it came back to where it started back in 2003.
 |
The venue is located next to the youth-center of the city, in an industrial area near s-train-station Grüze. |
| The main wall has about 600quaremeters and will be painted with a certain topic in a huge concept. Near ther venue is a second wall that has about 200qm. |
 |
 |
Actually it all started weeks before preparing idea, concept, line-up. Sonic, One Truth and the local MOS-Orga have done a lot to continue our swiss edition. |
| The goal was to follow this years Motto “Big Dreamers” so the idea was born to create a big universe with big bubblees as a symbol for individual dreams, in and by different styles. |  |
Its been a lot of work for Sonic and the boys and surely wasnt easy to bring more than 25 artists togehter, following the concept, keeping the line.
 |
But eventhough and despite of rain throughout the weekend, it turned out to be a burner. Check the gallery!On the walls: Tcf-Crew (Bristol/GB), Zmogk (Russia), F-Lines-Crew (Italy), Schwarzmaler (CH), Sonic, Syke,Kesh and IGB-Crew (CH), Wany (Italy), Clockwork (Ch), Trise + Sokz (Austria), Kesh, Nigs, Iceroc, Spoom (CH), Serio (France), One Truth-Crew. |

After-party was rocked by… Zone 13, IS, Mito(OTM), Italoslang/Zerius, Eloquent, Eniceo and RMU-Crew (Germany)

why is it that there are a million walls and here we are painting on the one thats already painted?
I’d sure like to come out but can’t see the logic in painting a perfectly awesome wall as is.
