"muralists paradise" - 2015, Dresden-Neustadt

Last summer i did a parody on current muralism development on a wall in Dresden. I had the sketch done some days before I did this comissioned passage way in Dresden-Neustadt.

You see houses just made of huge walls - perfect for muralism, but nonsense for living.

 

 

In recent years a huge recognition goes to huge murals by few artists. Before institutionalization of contemporary muralism coming from graffiti background, we had a much wider recognition of different artists and styles. People not just liked big walls, because of their impressive size.

 

The current development which seems like „Hey Girls - I got the biggest dig“ is not the way i thought about when i started to draw on walls in public and did projects such as muralismo morte. The recent development of an usage of muralism just for beautification is to boring and one-dimensional.

 

 

I want to continue in muralism, but a new way should be found - maybe smaller, maybe collaborations again - let’s see what 2016 will happen ;)
