You can’t buy a drawing by Julian Beever and you can’t see his work in a gallery or museum. Julian
makes his amazing pictures on the pavements of city streets. People have called him “the Pavement Picasso”
and perhaps you have seen his pictures on the Internet.
Julian has made hundreds of pieces of “pavement art” in different countries - in many parts of
Europe and also in the USA, Australia, Japan, Argentina, and Brazil.
His drawings can take three or four days to finish. But because he draws with chalk, the drawings
only stay for a short time. When people walk on them or when it rains, they quickly disappear. For Julian,
this isn’t a problem. The drawings survive in the photos he has taken, and this is the most important thing for
him.
Julian’s fame hasn’t come from experts in the art world, but from the Internet. “The reason why my
work has become well known is because people like it and they’ve sent it to each other on the Internet,” he
says. “So I know that what I do is popular.”
