The Thousands will feature work from some of best street artists in the world when the exhibit opens on November 18th in London. Faile, Banksy, KAWS, Shepard Fairey, Swoon and Herakut are just a few of the names they’ve released so far.

The coolest thing about The Thousands is that their project seems to have selfless goals. They want to both promote and celebrate the rise of street art rather than exploit it for economic gain.

Here’s a quote from the blog they’ve set up for the exhibition.

“Last summer, the Tate Modern put street art outside their museum, and this year the Bristol Museum let Banksy take over for a few months. Those are definite steps in the right direction, but The Thousands attempts to show the art world and the public that there are great works of art within the sphere of “street art,” and that street artists deserve a place in art history at least equal to that of The Young British Artists or the great pop artists. Unlike any show that a gallery can organize (not that there’s anything wrong with art galleries), the goal of The Thousands is not to sell work, but to publicize it, and the vast majority of the work on display won’t be for sale. It’s on loan from collectors. To help extend that promotion effort even further, Drago Lab will be publishing a companion book to the exhibition.”
