Paul Yaner: "Città Strato" at Docks 74 (Turin)

Paul Yaner brings "Città Strato" to Docks 74

From 9 May 2026, Docks 74 presents "Città Strato", a solo exhibition by Paul Yaner. The show explores the city through a mix of writing, New York-style lettering, vintage comic references and urban photography.

Yaner condenses metropolitan visuals — dense architectures, urban marks and marginal figures — into organised visual maps featuring flat color areas, silkscreened details and ironic mascots that engage viewers in a generational dialogue.

Why visit

The exhibition is relevant for those tracking how street art transitions into exhibition spaces: Yaner retains graffiti roots while integrating graphic and photographic influences, fostering a conversation between street practice and gallery presentation.
