Aaron Goodstone, known as Sharp, at a gallery installation that combines street art with antique pieces.

Louis XIV and Blade (circa 1976)? That’s the idea behind “Whole in the Wall,” a new group show of European and American street art, from 1970 to today. Now open at the former Splashlight Studios building — the last exhibit before that massive space gets torn down — it features work by tagging pioneers like Crash and contemporary artists like Banksy, some displayed against ornate antique furniture. Embroidery and spray paint! High and low culture! Can you handle it?! Yes.
