Tsoi Wall, Graffiti-covered wall in Moscow, Russia

Tsoi Wall is a graffiti art surface in Moscow's Arbat District covered with colorful images and text. The surface is continually refreshed and painted over by artists, creating a living artwork that changes daily.

The wall was first inscribed on 15 August 1990, the day Viktor Tsoi died, with the words "Viktor Tsoi has died today" in black; someone soon replied "Tsoi is alive!". Fans then added lyrics from Kino songs such as "Pachka sigaret" and "Muraveinik". In 2006 the Art Destroy Project painted over it, but fans restored the graffiti; in 2009 Moscow's renovation plans were dropped after protests.

The wall is named after Soviet rock musician Viktor Tsoi, who became a cult figure in rock music after his death in 1990. Fans leave messages and artwork here as a tribute to his music and lasting influence.

The location is open and freely accessible since it sits on a public street. It is best visited during daylight to see the details of the artwork and perceive the colors properly.

The wall occupies only the facade of house No. 37 at the corner of Arbat Street and Krivoarbatsky Lane, not several blocks. It was first inscribed on 15 August 1990 with "Viktor Tsoi has died today" in black, followed by the reply "Tsoi is alive!" Fans still leave a broken lit cigarette in the special ash plate by the wall.
