In the Swiss town of Lenzburg, however, the situation is somewhat different: from autumn 2012 to spring 2014, well-known Swiss street artists designed 4661 square metres of wall space at the new local penitentiary. They were free to draw or spray paint anything they wanted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn more than 25,000 hours of work, a total of 1,400 spray cans and 200 litres of paint were used to turn a barren, cold concrete bunker into a lively and unique comprehensive work of art. This impressive and tangent art across eight recreation courtyards, five colonnades, a staircase, and two oversized exterior walls remains, similar to the prisoners themselves, locked up behind the heavily guarded gates and walls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe wall paintings and graffiti are made available to the public in this art book.
