The U.S. Embassy in BiH, in cooperation with BiH NGO Motus Adulescenti, has initiated a graffiti project “Peace murals” that will be taking place in Sarajevo, East Sarajevo and Mostar from April 17-30, 2015. Marking the 20th anniversary of peace in Bosnia and Herzegovina, world famous graffiti artist Caleb Neelon will lead a group of about 40 students, young artists, from the three cities, to paint murals with one topic – peace. The visiting artist Caleb Neelon’s works can be seen in galleries and museums and on walls in dozens of countries around the world. Neelon is a contributing editor of Juxtapoz magazine and is the author or collaborator on more than a dozen books, among them the landmark 2011 HarperCollins release “The History of American Graffiti”, co-authored with Roger Gastman, and the 2014 AMMO retrospective Ed Emberly, co-authored with Todd Oldham.
