The Taliban have been open about their hostility towards the artists, many of whom have fled Afghanistan.
The ArtLords, a collective of refugee artists, painted a mural with the help of local people in Albania, where the Afghan exiles are now living. All photos: ArtLords
ArtLords founder Omaid Sharifi, left, was among the group's members who escaped from Afghanistan.
The ArtLords put on an exhibition of works by refugee artists. They became known for painting hundreds of murals on the thick blast walls that are a common sight across Kabul and the rest of Afghanistan.
Children were also encouraged to take part in the exhibition.
A part of the event was dedicated to the many Afghan children now living in exile, encouraging them to create art and paint.
