Introduction

Inspired by the "MUR Oberkampf" in Paris, where more than 300 artists have left their mark over the years, and following on from the graffiti project at the ventilation tower at Place Guillaume II, "LE MUR LUXEMBOURG" features temporary works of graffiti and street art in a range of styles on its 30 m2 urban canvas.

Rue du Fort Neipperg

The LE MUR Luxembourg urban art project was launched in March 2022, in collaboration with the non-profit organisation I love Graffiti and, since then, more than 13 spray can masters have left their mark on the gable wall at 23, rue du Fort Neipperg.

New location in Rue du St-Esprit

Due to the extension of the Rocade building, LE MUR was moved to a new location in Ville Haute, where it now occupies the façade of the Lëtzebuerg City Museum at 14, rue du St-Esprit. The new location of the "Modulable - Urbain – Réactif" (MUR) concept is expected to unlock new potential for the LE MUR Luxembourg urban art project, while providing it with a home in the heart of the city centre.

Project initiated by I Love Graffiti ASBL, with the support of the City of Luxembourg.

The 18th iteration of LE MUR Luxembourg, which kicks off on Friday, 28 March 2025, spotlights Belgian artist Élisa Morlet, also known as IOTA, a rising star on the contemporary mural scene. Although her alias is Greek for "the smallest detail", she has gained worldwide renown for her enormous murals. IOTA, who was born in 1991, embarked on her artistic career in 2013 on the streets of Brussels, where she explored a range of themes through vibrant murals infused with subtle messages. She developed a sophisticated painting style in which atmospheric movements and colours play with shadow and light, revealing enigmatic human figures. By painting in this style she seeks to transcend reality and immerse the viewer in the abstract realm of emotions, and in so doing expose the subconscious.

Through her murals and paintings on canvas, IOTA has honed a polished and instantly recognisable pictorial technique. Her graphite-on-paper drawings also demonstrate great precision and a spirit that encompasses both restraint and liberation.
