Secret Wars is an exciting and creative competition, in which top-class street artists compete in teams against each another in a unique event featuring artistic quality, rivalry and an open-minded audience. The rules of this artistic contest are easy — armed with black Edding marker pens, the combatants must go head to head with each other. Starting out with a blank white wall, they have just 90 minutes to display their creative drawing skills in an exciting artistic competition. Throughout the contest, both teams try to outdo the other through a combination of skill, wit and irony. At the end of the competition, a jury and the audience decide on the winners and losers.
