Urban Signature creates an event by teaming up with Hopare! This Sunday, September 14, 2025, the famous street artist will take over the Shack to create a monumental live fresco on a set of 100 skateboards glued together! For collectors, an original fragment of this work is available for sale. We tell you all about it.

Lovers ofHopare 's work can smile. The famous street artist is preparing to take over the Shack, in Paris, to create a monumental fresco live before your very eyes. With free admission this Sunday, September 14, 2025, from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., this event has been initiated by Urban Signature, the initiator of numerous urban art exhibitions in the capital.

Following on from the " 100% Paper " exhibition, Urban Signature welcomes back Alexandre Monteiro, aka Hopare, for a brand-new event that should delight street art enthusiasts and collectors alike. And with good reason: in addition to this artistic performance open to the general public, it will be possible to purchase a unique fragment of this monumental work painted on a set of 100 skateboards, glued together.

While a visual printed, numbered and hand-signed by Hopare will adorn the front face of the skateboard, the back face will be a unique fragment of this immense fresco measuring around 5mx5m, painted live on September 14. As Urban Signature points out, " no two backs will be identical ". Be warned, however, that this collector's item comes at a price: expect to pay 1,400 euros for a skateboard, which you can reserve here. Otherwise, head to the Shack this September 14 from 11am to see Hopare create this monumental fresco live on 100 skateboards.
