Orgosolo’s Murals, Painting series in Orgosolo, Italy.
The streets of Orgosolo display over 250 murals on building facades, depicting social issues, daily life, and political events through various artistic styles.
The first mural emerged in 1969 when the Dioniso theater group from Milan created artwork addressing Sardinian governmental policies and social concerns.
Local artists incorporate themes of regional identity, shepherds' lives, and community struggles into their murals, using water-based paints for easy maintenance.
Visitors can explore the outdoor gallery throughout the year, with many murals concentrated in the central district of this Sardinian mountain village.
