According to a press release of the organizers sent to AGERPRES on Monday, "Bucharest - One Heart.

The event will take place after the following program:

* The moving urban art exhibition "Bucharest - One Heart. One Story" will take place between September 20 and December 10, 2020.

Seven tram sets (lines 1, 10, 21, 25, 27, 40 and 41), which cross the most important areas of the Capital, will be transformed into a real exhibition of moving graffiti by some of the best street art artists in Bucharest, coordinated by curator Mihai Zgondoiu: Irlo, Home Boy, Kero Zen, Ocu, Mser, Obie Platon, Erps, the Square Cat, Robert Obert, John Dot's, Mircea Modreanu, Lux, Mircea Popescu, Graffetele (Irina Mocanu , Sandy Balasoiu), Livi Po, Sweet Damage Crew (Biex, Shatran, Pandele, Cage).

Caragiale" National Theater, InterContinental Hotel and the University of Bucharest. The projections will have no sound, and the artistic content will be of short duration (in a loop), so that passers-by will not stop, thus avoiding congestion.

* The 2020 iMapp Bucharest festival will take place from Wednesday to Saturday, within the "Days of Bucharest" event, in a special, online format, which takes into account the need for physical distancing and the safety of citizens.
