Artistic types from all over the world are about to unleash their creativity on Grottaglie, a small town in Italy.

In case you haven't heard of it, the FAME festival involves a bunch of hyperactive international artists gathering to paint on walls, cars and anything they can find.

Grottaglie is a town that is famous for its ceramics. As well as painting their way around the city, the artists will also be experimenting with local ceramicists on various pieces. The results of their collaborations will be part of an exhibition being unveiled at the end of September.

The FAME festival starts in late August and continues to the end of September.

Here is the list of artists who are participating in the 2008 festival. You can see some of their works in the image gallery above.
