Twice in each of the 650 anniversary years, the whole of Krefeld will become a canvas for a week. Krefeld citizens were able to make suggestions for areas to be painted. These were lovingly and extremely creatively designed by around 20 national and international artists. Follow me now on a weather-independent tour through the somewhat more colorful velvet and silk city of Krefeld. (... ) Note to the © (... ) Björn von Schulz Björn von Schulz/Germany - Urban Art Gallery Krefeld 2023 Nordstr. 118, 47798 Krefeld (06.-11.08.23) The young woman and the lamb ... that's what I call this beautiful picture painted at Nordstr. 118 in Krefeld by Björn von Schulz from Münster, where he was born in 1978. As a designer, illustrator and graffiti artist, Björn von Schulz quickly recognized his passion for figurative drawing and painting As he also had the talent for this style of painting, he quickly gained recognition in the scene. As a founding member of the artist collective and later creative agency "Studio Egotrips", Björn was able to prove his talent and intention. In 2015 he gave up the agency artist's life and embarked on new paths of his own. This allowed him to concentrate fully on his own art, his own "way of art". His art has been on display at home and abroad for over 20 years. Björn has also made a name for himself with various publications. He has only been painting murals and participating in various festivals since 2019. Even though photographing this picture was a bit special again, as I had to block the road from time to time, this picture radiates calm and thoughtfulness for me. The woman, who is no longer quite young, seems to be wearing a kind of "shepherdess" costume. Surrounded by green branches, I perceive a closeness to nature or a return to nature. In 2015, von Schulz left his familiar paths, the agency life, and concentrated fully on his art. He has been exhibiting his work in Germany and abroad for over 20 years now and regularly appears in various publications. Since 2019, there has been an increased focus on wall works and painting at festivals. Quellen: Artist Profile - Bjoern von Schulz - YoungArt, Björn von Schulz , Stadt Bibliothek Rheine 2022 Julia Bethke/Germany - Urban Art Gallery Krefeld 2023 Weiter Tannenstr. 42, 47798 Krefeld (06.-11.08.23) Julia Bethke discovered her creative interest and artistic talent in her youth. It quickly became clear that she would follow this career path.She then completed her training as a stage painter at the Theater & Philharmonie Essen as part of a 3-year apprenticeship, where she learned a wide variety of techniques. Essen is the third location in Germany for this training, alongside Berlin and Baden-Baden. (I love this theater and have seen many performances there over a long period of time and was always impressed by the unconventional, unusual stage and costume design). She completed her compulsory internship at the Deutsche Oper am Rhein in Duisburg. She was totally "flashed" at the interview when she realized that she would have to learn many new things and techniques in this job. Her enthusiasm and passion for "her art" enabled her to successfully complete this demanding, creative school. She soon realized that the profession of stage painter has long since been just about "swinging brushes", but that larger projects also require manual skills and dexterity and that you always have to get stuck in and lug things around. (...) Huge backdrops and floors often have dimensions that exceed a normal apartment size, which is obviously exactly Julia Bethke's thing, who always goes about her work with perfectionism. Like many creative people, the fact that you can see what you have created is an important factor in her professional fulfillment. The Rheinisches Landtheater Neuss, the Theater Dortmund and the Theater für Niedersachsen in Hildesheim have been further stations in her professional career. As an employee in these theaters, she not only designed stage sets as illusion and imitation paintings, but also gave furniture, floors and walls a new creative outfit. She has also embellished large backdrops with her special style of painting. You can find some impressive examples of her creativity on her homepage . In addition to theater projects, she also shows various interior embellishments with a detailed making off as well as some private paintings. She has been working freelance since summer 2021. In times of the corona epidemic, she took the plunge into the cold water of self-employment and began to develop her own brand. "JueLIEBE" became her creative trademark. She likes the name Juelie, she tells Esther Jansen in the Kredo interview, which her uncle had given her earlier. By adding the first two letters of her surname, she came up with her stage name "JuLIEBE". She loves to create illusions. She is able to recreate tiles, wood, asphalt, rust or marble in a lifelike way. In her opinion, anything you can imagine can be imitated. A very valuable skill in her creative work, in my opinion. Using spray cans, spatulas, rollers and lots of brushes, she now carries out a wide variety of commissioned works, e.g. in schools and restaurants, from the initial idea to the final execution. In this way, she transports the viewer into her own colorful world. In 2021, she left an impressive reminder for nature as part of the Silk City Gallery Krefeld with a contribution about bees. In an interview with Esther Jansen, published in Kredo on 02.09.22, it becomes clear, among other things, that colors and textures are not only her profession but also her vocation. Her home is a reflection of her colorful passion. She has lived in Krefeld with her partner since 2020 and has made Krefeld a little more beautiful in many places with her art. Further details can be found in the Kredo interview from 02.09.22.

After emigrating from Israel, she settled in the USA/Houston and found her true calling in painting. Over the years, she has created countless works of art in the USA and all over the world on various media, such as walls, floors, canvases, practically anything that can carry color. She has painted in Western Australia, China, India, Israel, the Netherlands, Germany, Great Britain and, of course, Canada and the USA. She speaks fluent English, Hebrew and Spanish. In the course of her eventful career, she has also won many awards and prizes. As the multidisciplinary artist Anat considers herself to be, she is not only able to earn a living with her versatile art, she also participates in national and international street painting and street art festivals. After the Wood Art Gallery in 2015 and the Rhine Side Gallery in 2017, the exceptional artist Anat Ronen will be back at the anniversary Urban Art Gallery in 2023. (... ) Anat weite lesen She brought us a special piece of art. As she told me, she has been collecting orphaned family photos for a while now. Among other things, she buys old photos on eBay that no one is interested in or where there are simply no more descendants. At festivals where she doesn't have to deliver commissioned work, she breathes personality and life into these pictures for a while. By painting these pictures large on walls, they become visible to the viewer. Everyone knows the small moments in such pictures, has perhaps experienced similar ones or remembers their own, almost forgotten encounters and feelings. In this way, the orphaned pictures receive renewed attention and are not forgotten. When I took my photos of the Helios wall a few days ago, similar thoughts crossed my mind. I also have family memories of similar situations. "It's not how long you wait, but who you wait for." (Some like it hot, 1959)" However, I could only really grasp Anats Ronen's intentions after she kindly explained her motives for the Krefeld pictures to me. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Anat once again for her input, which makes her pictures even more vivid. Forgive me for the intense play of light and shadow, which made it impossible to achieve a uniform exposure of her pictures. I actually wanted to take new pictures with fewer shadows at another time, but then decided against it because it is precisely this play of light that gives the pictures a life of their own. My own representation of these pictures has emerged in the course of editing, has been approved by Anat Ronan and shows a little of my perception of her art. Source: Anat Ronan personally Krefeld im Oktober 23 fabio fedele/Italien - Urban Art Gallery Krefeld 2023 Seyffardtstraße - Wand Helios, 47805 Krefeld (06.-11.08.23) Weiter Fabio Fedele was in Krefeld for his first European project since 2017 on the occasion of the Urban Art Gallery 2023 to mark Krefeld's 650th birthday. Fabio explains that it doesn't really matter to him whether he puts his art on the walls of his own front door, the neighbor around the corner or in a distant country. It is important to him what he paints and that this painting is in a good relationship with its surroundings. Corona has changed a lot. International projects mean an enormous amount of energy, work and costs for the artist. Financially, these projects offer no profit, rather the opposite. While he still took part in international festivals about every two years before Covid, he now sees much less incentive to travel to these events. Not least because street art projects are currently springing up like mushrooms. In order to "do his thing", to live his art, he no longer needs to travel internationally. (... ) Fortunately, he received an invitation he couldn't refuse and could be sure of the support of his better half. In Krefeld, the introverted loner was able to work on his art with old friends and make new ones, immortalizing the enchanting world of elves in their natural environment on the dreary wall of Helios Hospital. According to him, he was able to use his stay in the silk city of Krefeld to learn, observe and discover new perspectives. When you hear that the journey back to his Italian homeland took 18 hours, and when you consider the sometimes bad weather during the "painting days", you can empathize with the artist how happy and relieved he was to be back home with his better half and his small human and furry family. A big thank you to the conscious "better half", who was probably instrumental in the fact that we Krefeld residents can now call a whole cheerful elfin family our own. It took 4 pictures to capture all the magical, young, mostly female mythical creatures. They seem to feel very much at home among the magical, colorful flowers and all kinds of creepy-crawlies. Visitors and patients of the Helios Clinic, as well as people hurrying past in Krefeld, can enjoy the magic of the fairy world for a moment, if they can find the time to follow the art of the Italian free spirit. Vita: Fabio Maria Fedele comes from Rovigo, northern Italy, near Venice. There he graduated in "History and Conservation of Architectural and Environmental Heritage", followed by a degree in Architecture. Having discovered his passion for drawing as a child, he developed his skills in many different areas. He has been working as a street artist since 1993 and added the 3D field in 2006. He has achieved the highest artistic titles awarded in Italy. These include "Maestro Madonnaro" in Grazie di Curtatone and "Magister Madomnaris" in Nocera Superiore. Although he mainly works as a street artist in northern Italy, he has also painted in Austria, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Denmark, France, Germany, Great Britain, Ireland, the Netherlands, Slovenia, Spain, the United Arab Emirates and the USA. He also works as an illustrator in archaeological museums. An extremely versatile artist. Source: Fabio Fedele personally Krefeld im Oktober 23 Cuboliquido/Italien - Urban Art Gallery Krefeld 2023 Weiter Seyffardtstraße - Wand Helios, 47805 Krefeld (06.-11.08.23) Cuboliquido tells us that from the 16th century onwards, Italian street painters roamed the country to capture people's attention with expressive, sacred images in front of churches. As the materials used, such as chalk and pastel, were very perishable due to the weather, it has only been possible to preserve these images for posterity since the invention of photography. The cheerful robot at the entrance to the Seidenweberhaus has an easier time of it. For the time being, its preservation is assured, even if it patiently bears the garbage of "forgetful" contemporaries (... ) For some 20 years now, anamorphic street painting has also been making inroads in Italy. This 3D chalk art, now also known as 3D street painting, enhances street painting enormously, as it produces extremely realistic moments. The viewer is automatically drawn into a lifelike scene, most impressively if he or she pays attention to the specific point from which the picture is to be viewed. Here, too, you have to walk back and forth along the wall of the Helios Clinic until you find the perfect spot, hoping that a parked car is not occupying it. Cuboliquido was born in Milan in 1974. He has been making a living from his art since 1992 and discovered his passion for street art in 1994. First as a graffiti artist and later as a traditional Madonnari artist (street painting of traditional Madonna images and religious motifs with pastels). Today, two of his Madonnari artworks are exhibited in a basilica in Bethlehem and in Mexico City. Since 2009, he has focused particularly on anamorphic 3D street painting and has participated in many international street art festivals, where he has won numerous prizes. He has presented his paintings across Europe, in Russia, the USA, Latin America, Thailand, China, the Middle East and South Africa. He has worked for many well-known companies such as Disney, Universal Cinema, Amazon, Coca Cola, Samsung, Unilever, Warner Bros and many more. To date, he has participated as a street painter in over 200 events of various kinds. He is the first artist to combine 3D street painting with animated videos (video mapping) and his work has been shown at three different art biennials and other contemporary art exhibitions. He was awarded the title of Maestro Madonnaro in Grazie die Curtatone and in March 2017 he won first prize in the world's most important competition for 3D street art in Dubai.

For the Krefeld Urban Art Festival 2023, he has conjured up a powerful, jumping horse with an Amazon on the wall above the Krefeld restaurant "Schümli". After the first photos I took there and a very nice, if unfortunately not very informative conversation with the team and guests of the Schümli, I got some information about his art from Ruben himself. A big thank you to Ruben at this point. Ruben doesn't give an explanation of his painting as he doesn't want to make a specific statement for the viewer. Instead, he approaches a new work of art more intuitively by familiarizing himself with the ground that is to be painted, looking at the people, the neighbourhood and the city. He looks to see if there are any local stories, myths or similar that can give him a feeling for the wall. He himself calls his painting "Hope & Liberty". As he likes action very much, he has chosen a jumping horse here. A horse jumps in a fraction of a second. Ruben wanted to bring this effect of frozen time, the paused moment, closer to the viewer. The horse was quickly given a rider, in this case a female rider. It is possible that the Lorelei legend inspired him to create this lady, but it could also be a classic depiction of a female figure with a torch, which could stand for independence and freedom. But as Ruben says, the interpretation is up to the viewer. He is interested in the action and a source of light that gives the picture an "inner light" and a feeling outside of reality. (... ) Ruben Poncia paints graphically, not photorealistically. He paints with brushes and creates the shapes of his pictures through the direction of his brushstrokes. The physical nature of the wall and the surroundings are largely decisive for his works. He creates his sketches in black and white, the colors are then supposed to blend in with the surroundings. When I post-processed my photos, the colors seemed a little pale and dark. After reading about Ruben's working methods and looking at the wall again, I now perceive the colors as absolutely fitting into the surroundings. As the time that artists have for a painting is limited, a project like this quickly becomes a sport. The artist's ideas, his own physical condition and the changing weather make the whole thing a challenge. In addition, there is the operation of the lift, sufficient fuel and whatever else may be required. The artist gives his all every day to stay on schedule. In his email to me, Ruben thanks the Krefeld team once again, who, like all the other artists, gave him great support in all matters. He also had fond memories of the people in the neighborhood. He had to fetch a bucket of water from the "Schümli" a few times, was warmly welcomed there and was happy about any kind of communication with people passing by. Some complimented him, some probably expressed negative opinions. But for Ruben Poncia, all of this falls under satisfactory communication. And so, in my opinion, street art has done its job of creating art in public space for the public. While I was photographing, people kept coming to see what I was doing, only to see the picture they hadn't seen before. These brief moments of communication are also important to me, as they are always a contact with the outside world, however brief.

He lived there in Huarte and Vitoria and in Germany in Göttingen, Bremen and Rheinberg. As soon as he grew up, he began to beautify the streets with his art not only in his home city of Pamplona, but also in numerous other cities, including Barcelona, Milan, Turin, Göttingen, Berlin and many more. With his special feeling for street art, he has won numerous prizes at Spanish and Basque graffiti and street art festivals. (... ) His art is characterized by the special combination of his urban roots, visible through tattoos and graphic design, and 3D art. The term "Corte", which translates as "cut" in German, can be found as part of his artist name. This is how his artistic activity developed from various art genres such as graphic design, classical art and graffiti. He works freelance in the fields of wall art, decoration, illustration, fine art and graphic design. This is Jabi's first time at a street art festival in Krefeld and he has chosen an extremely "hot" time for his painting. Even though you would expect a native Spaniard to be relatively tolerant of heat, I was able to see for myself how exhausting it was to work in these temperatures. His painting for Krefeld is entitled "Arantxa eta Agustín, beti gogoan". According to the artist, it is a tribute to his aunt Arantxa and his uncle Augustin, whose ashes the family laid to rest under a gingko tree planted especially for them. An unusual and yet loving presentation. The two, aunt and uncle, depicted as astronauts, floating, without recognizable faces, yet delicately glowing, can thus evoke the idea that they are always with their loved ones. Somewhere out there, in a place beyond our imagination ....

True to detail, special and yet somehow similar, they show the artist's personal development. Viewers are given the opportunity to immerse themselves in Stefan's world of art and share in his artistic development. To recognize how intuition and attention to detail merge and offer insight into the painter's artistic core. Experimenting with different styles and mediums, he not only explores his own identity, but also offers the inclined viewer access to multiple emotions and expressions of human beings. In this way, people who take a moment to look at these multifaceted faces can be inspired to make their own experiences with human emotions and, ideally, to better recognize their own I and understand its flexibility.

He is one of the founding members of the Ma'Claim Crew. His works are photorealistic and depict the power of movement through the representation of hands. Hands in many variations and connections or touches. Having started painting in 1995, Chase Maclaim has exhibited his work in more than 20 countries. In these countries, he leaves behind his very personal, powerful handshake. His corresponding hands leave the impression that movement and at the same time unity are symbolized by these very hands. Chase wants this interference to be perceived not only on a physical level, but also in the social and political sphere. He uses these hand gestures, which are understood by everyone, to clarify his intentions. It is often the gesture that says more than 1000 words. His hands, or rather his hand gesture for Krefeld, are borrowed from sign language and, if you look at these hands from top to bottom, stand for the term "home". He sees the uniqueness of hands, hands that connect people. With this campaign, he wants to draw attention to the limitations of physically impaired citizens. He once painted a wheelchair user looking down at passers-by. After this gesture was positively received by the wheelchair user, he really became aware of the relevance of this topic. I perceive this description as a change of perspective, a change in the levels on which wheelchair users and people on foot move. While writing these lines, I had to think about it for a while, just leave this little report as it was and took another look at his Instagram account under this premise. It's worth it, take a look :-) (... ) Quellen: URBAN Nation , streetartcities.com Krefeld im Oktober 2023 Weiter Infotmation Urban Art Gallery Krfeld 2023 Info weiter lesen Some of the artists are old acquaintances who have already taken part in previous projects. Others are newcomers who have come to beautify the former silk city of Krefeld. This year, the focus was on large areas that are suitable for providing residents and visitors to the city with new perspectives. To this end, citizens submitted proposals for areas to the collective betont.es in advance. The proposed areas were checked for their suitability and then the owners were approached. The owners, who in my opinion have experienced great added value for their properties as a result of this campaign. Despite the supposedly summery season, the artists and their teams had to contend with adverse, i.e. wet, conditions from time to time. However, during my photo tours in glorious weather after the end of the campaign, there was no sign of this. On the contrary, I sometimes had to contend with a little too much sun in front of the lens. Since 20 artists have created a lot of art and I want to treat each subject with a certain amount of care, I will upload the pictures here one by one, without taking into account the date of creation, with a little background information. Contrary to my original plan to upload all the pictures in one gallery, I have decided to create a separate section for each artist for a better overview, which can then be selected individually in the menu. As I sometimes find simply taking photographs too boring and many other photographers do the same, I sometimes allow myself to interpret the images myself. This is actually very much in the spirit of urban art, namely interpreting it according to your own ideas. Just let the pictures have an effect on you. I have linked the Instagram accounts under the artist's name. Finally, a note on copyright. I have carefully compiled the information on this topic and basically on all topics on this site and noted the respective sources. In addition to Internet research, I have spoken to artists, written to them and sometimes met them in person to gather information on the respective topic. Even though this is a private site, it contains my work and I regard it as my intellectual property. In principle, there is nothing to stop you from using this information for your own purposes, but please cite the source. Unfortunately, in addition to visual and linguistic elements, I have recently found individual pieces of information that are very similar to mine in third-party publications. I assume that these are purely coincidental, unintentional similarities and will not occur again. So, with this in mind, just drop by from time to time. I look forward to seeing you.

One cannot exist without the other." ©Irina Rathmann Two in one interpreted by Camilla Margarito. Artist information (...) Artist Information Camilla Margarito Info Camilla Camilla says of herself that she finds it a little difficult to put into words the thoughts and associated emotions that surround us. That is why she loves art in its various forms. Words can be unclear. You have too many limits. Her pictorial composition for the Seidenweberhaus came about out of a certain curiosity. She doesn't want to show a work of art "carved in stone", but to illustrate simple considerations. The figure of the Siamese twins is unusual, especially the shape of a vase with two necks. Depicted and beautifully worked out, she has the beautiful similarities of the two forms. Camilla Margaret had f For her "little" picture, the idea of starting with these two brothers who have to master their lives as Siamese twins in one body. She wondered to what extent a symbiotic relationship can be perceived between the two. What level of organization and, above all, how much respect and understanding is required to live well and not invade the thoughts and freedoms of others in such a limited "space". In the case of the Siamese, it is nature that acts, and nature would likely endow these two people with infinite love and a boundless sense of oneness to enable them to handle life in the best possible way. But what would emerge in society, in family relationships, in work relationships, in all those close relationships where we can't choose our "fellow" people? Camilla wanted to present these relationships in a positive development. For them it is a numbers game. (From 1 + 1 = 1 or after all 2?) She then speaks of an encounter with the will to understand one another on deeper levels. Of an encounter aimed at a fair and mutual relationship that can manifest itself in an embrace, striving for mutual unity. This unity can also be represented by the vase with the two necks. She sees this vase as an object that, despite its fragility, shows stability and strength. This vase would show unity and diversity at the same time. In this part of the picture, she continues her game with the numbers. *For the design of the amphora, I took my inspiration from a ceramic from theGumelnite culture from the period 4500-4300 BC. be inspired." The considerations give her picture idea enormous strength, as she tells the person behind the camera with beaming eyes. Here one sees a possibility that society can learn from its "small" picture to organize itself too carefully in order to ultimately be able to live better together. Sources: Video krefeld.de, Camilla Margerito Annotation : At this point, thanks to Camilla for explaining her picture. Even if we viewers should (or should) have our own thoughts about urban art, I always find it enriching/complementing when the artist gives something of his own intention to the viewing path. * * * Camilla Margaret is a sculptress, Illustrato rin and street artist from Puglia, who now lives and works in Berlin. She studied at the Art Academy in Lecce (Puglia) in southern Italy and moved to Berlin in 2012, where she creates sculptures in plaster, wood and mixed media, ink drawings, prints and paintings in search of an original artistic language. In the last 10 years she has participated in various street painting festivals in Italy, France and Germany, often creating street paintings and murals together with her partner Martino Larocchia.

Fredda Wouters, Kevelaer: „Ich glaube, nur wenn die Menschen diese Verbindung wiederfinden, dann ist Veränderung möglich und es gibt auch wieder Hoffnung!“ - Ein wenig der scheint die Sommersonne noch herein, auf der anderen Seite empfängt den Besucher kühle, dunkle Bunkeratmosphäre. Home Street Home "Es beginnt in dir", der Titel des Liedes von MaximNoise aus Neuss ist sozusagen der Wegweiser in die Ausstellung. Zur Eröffnung der Down Town Gallery gab der Musiker ein Konzert. Sein Lied kann als weiteres Element der Ausstellung gesehen werden, greift er doch verbal und musikalisch viele Gesichtspunkte der Kunstwerke auf. Der sommerlichen Hitze entflohen müssen sich meine Auge erst einmal an das Dämmerlicht gewöhnen. Beim Umschauen fallen mir schnell satte blaue Farben ins Auge, den ich noch zögerlich folge. Fröhliche Menschen nehme ich wahr, die sich ungezwungen in dem alten Parkhaus bewegen. Schnell den Moment mit der Kamera festgehalten. Beinahe lebensecht scheinen die Wellen auf mich zu zukommen. - Edgar Müller, Bad Ems: „Ich frage mich wie können wir die Menschheit noch retten, wenn heutzutage die Würde des Menschen so wenig wert scheint? Ich bin total Hoffnungslos.“ Mehr Infos siehe Link: - Das nächste Bild nimmt die Farben und das maritime Thema wieder. auf. Doch dieses zeigt mehr Details. Noch mehr Wellen, ein scheinbar hilflos treibendes Floß mit einer Familie. An der linken Seite eine sichere gepflegte Regatta Situation. Ich trete ein wenig zurück, um die Situation auf mich wirken zu lassen und beobachte die beiden Damen vor mir, die sich angeregt über das Motiv unterhalten. (HP siehe Link:) Meine Gedanken, während ich hinter den beiden Damen die Szene betrachte ... - "Meine Augen haben vieles gesehen, Wunderbares erlebt und Schlimmes überstanden, deshalb sehe ich die Zukunft kritischer als früher und doch habe ich es nicht verlernt an die Sonne zu glauben, auch sie sich manchmal hinter Wolken befindet. (SprücheAusDemHerzen) Gregor Wosik, Mönchengladbach: „Das stimmt, täglich werden weltweit Menschen im Stich gelassen, die Hilfe benötigen. Wir müssen die Mauern und Grenzen verschwinden lassen, die die Menschen voneinander trennen.“ - Mehr Infos siehe Link: Ich sehe eine Art dunkle Höhle, aus deren Mitte hell erleuchtet ein kleines Mädchen scheinbar versunken ins Spiel mit einigen Vögeln entspannt auf ihren Knien hockt. - Fabio Fedele aus Rovigo, Italien sagt zu seinem Bild: “ Jeder von uns kann und muss selbst entscheiden, ob er sich positiven oder negativen Gedanken und Botschaften hingibt.“ In meiner Betrachtung habe ich das Bild für mich in zwei Teile geteilt. Das Dunkle, das Böse zieht mich sofort in seinen Bann. Ich muss näher gehen, es genauer anschauen. Am liebsten mag ich genau hinsehen mit den Fingerspitzen, das Übel im wahrsten Sinne begreifen. - You wake up every morning to fight the same demons that left you so tired the night before my love, is bravery. (a.l.h.) Doch dann trete ich wieder ein Stück zurück, möchte mich nicht in den dunklen Fratzen verlieren, versuche einen Überblick über die Situation zu bekommen. Ich lasse zu, nein, ich fordere bewusst ein, dass die helle Seite zu ihrem Recht kommt. Dass ich mir das kleine Mädchen genauer ansehen kann, die Tiere und Blumen um sie herum. Dieser Seite will und werde ich den Vorzug, den Sieg für mich und für den Moment geben ... Fabio Fedele aus Rovigo im Norden Italiens, begann 1993 mit der Straßenmalerei. Er studierte Architektur sowie die Geschichte und die Wahrung von architektonischen Kulturgütern. Seit 2006 zählt auch die 3D Straßenmalerei zu seinem Repertoire. Er gewann zahlreiche Preise bei internationalen Streetart Festivals. - Mehr Information über Fedele findest du hier: Nach den ersten drei Bildern, eins intensiver als das andere, nehme ich wieder wahr, dass ich nicht alleine hier bin. Gelassen und aufmerksam schlendern die Menschen herum, manche mit ihren Hunden. Eine ganz alltägliche urbane Szene also ... Ruben Poncia, Uetrecht, Niederlande: „Manches, was zunächst positiv und anziehend wirkt, wie z.B. der Nationalismus und Populismus, kann im nächsten Schritt zur Gefahr werden. Man muss sich deshalb auch die Konsequenzen des eigenen Denkens und Handelns bewusst machen.“ - Mehr Infos siehe Link: Sehr eindringlich empfinde ich die bildliche Darstellung der Gefahren von Nationalismus und Populismus. Der übermächtige Adler, ein an sich wunderschönes Tier, lässt spüren, wie wirksam und beeinflussend politische Einstellungen sein können. Eine immer währende Hoffnung, dass der Adler nicht zuschlagen möge, oder der Tiger mit der ihm innewohnenden Weisheit dieser Gefahr trotzen kann. Nachdenklich macht mich hier die geringere Größe des Tigers ... Die Wand an sich ist für Victor Splash das Ausschlaggebende. Er lässt sich von der Gesamtumgebung leiten und möchte den Besuchern beim Betreten der Räume in deren Gefühlwelt lenken. Er nimmt die Besonderheiten des ihm zur Verfügung gestellten Raumes wahr und integriert diesen in sein Kunstwerk. Hier im Bunker fasziniert ihn die Schwere der Betonpfeiler, die er durch seine 3D Darstellung in weichere, flexible Formen aufweicht ... - Mehr siehe Link: Aus der Graffitiszene stammend galt Victors Rubens Interesse der Architektur. Ein Architekturstudium änderte 2012 seinen persönlichen Stil und damit auch seine künstlerische Darstellung. Räume, Formen, Atmosphäre und verschiedene Technologien prägen seine Werke. Victor Splash aus St. Petersburg, Russland sagt zu diesem Thema: „Ich weiß, dass es möglich ist, starre Strukturen zu verändern und aufzubrechen.“ - Ich habe meinen Schatten spontan als Auflockerung in Szene gesetzt. Oder war das vielleicht doch eher Selbstdarstellung ;-)? Sebastian Saffenreuter und Clemens Brück, Krefeld: „Äußere Grenzen und Strukturen können manchmal auch gut sein und Schutz bieten.“ Neben dieser geistigen Anregung, geht es den beiden Künstlern auch um ihr Spiel mit Form, Farbe, Vielfalt und Komposition, mit der sie Atmosphäre und besondere Momente im öffentlichen Raum kreieren und ihn damit ästhetisch mitgestalten und beeinflussen wollen. - Mehr Info siehe Link: An einer der wenigen Stellen im Bunker – nahe des Notausganges, wo Tageslicht das Bild beleuchtet, schafft ihre Wandmalerei als Ganzes an dieser Stelle auch ganz subtil durch ihre Platzierung eine Verbindung von Außen nach Innen oder umgekehrt. Mit meiner Vorliebe für Zahlen ist dieses Bild für mich leicht zugänglich, klar strukturiert. Auch ich fände Sicherheit in diesen Strukturen, in den mein Schatten sich scheinbar spielerisch einfügt ;-). Auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite geht es auffallend bunt weiter. Sonnendurchflutete Gelb-, Orange und Rottöne dominieren in strahlenden mexikanisch angehauchten Jungmädchengesichtern. Die Malerin Adry del Rocio möchte so auf die schwierige Lage von Kindern in Flüchtlingslagern aufmerksam machen. Wenn Kinder auf eine gute Zukunft hoffen sollen, brauchen sich schon eine gute Gegenwart. "Ein Haus zum Träumen" nennt sie ihr farbenfrohes Gemälde. Ihre Malerei sieht sie als eine Utopie einer glücklicheren Welt in Frieden. Doch warum soll das eine Utopie bleiben? Was tun wir dafür, dass dieser Wunsch leben und wachsen kann? Adry del Rocío aus Guadalajara, Mexiko meint: „Und Schutz benötigen vor allem die Kinder, die keine Wahl haben, in welcher Umgebung sie aufwachsen.“ Sie selbst ist durch ihren Vater, der sich um Straßenkinder in Ecuador kümmerte, schon früh mit dieser schwierigen Situation in Berührung gekommen. - Mehr siehe Link: Künstlerdialog: „Shelter“ - „Ich glaube, der einzige Ort an dem die Menschlichkeit Schutz findet ist der Kopf.“ - My recent anamorphic art “Shelter” at Down Town Gallery Krefeld, Germany in a specific place- bunker. Therefore the theme named “Shelter for humanity“. Easy words - mich beunruhigt, irritiert dieses Bild. Wo soll sich mein Blick festhalten, nur Chaos, keine scheinbare Ordnung ... Mehr siehe Link: Alex Maksiov, Ukraine, wurde 79 in der Ukraine geboren, befasste sich seit 1990 mit dem Zeichnen und studierte Malerei beim Odessa Art Colleg in der Ukraine. Später studierte er weiter an der National Academy of Fine Arts in Kiev und erhielt im Jahre 2007 seinen Masterabschluss mit der Spezialisierung in der Gemälderestauration. Seit 2010 zählt auch die 3D Straßenmalerei zu seinem Repertoire und mittlerweile ist er in Streetart Projekte in der ganzen Welt involviert und gewann zahlreiche Preise. Last man understanding ...den letzten Mann verstehen? Lange rätsele ich an der Übersetzung der drei Worte - komme zu keinen befriedigenden Ergebnis. Traumhaft-unwirklich wirkt diese Szene, die eine Bar darstellt. Sie steht in krassem Gegensatz zur Lebenssituation in einem Bunker zu Kriegszeiten. Menschen, Gäste mit Köpfen aus Glühbirnen, diese mögen für Gedanken und Ideen stehen. Mehr siehe Link: Alex Tubuku aus Krefeld sagt zu diesem Projekt:“ Auch die Ideen finden hier Schutz.“ Kann ein Bar ein Schutzraum sein? Für viele Menschen ist sie offensichtlich ein Ort, an dem man in schwierigen Lebenssituationen Hilfe oder zumindest Ablenkung sucht. Mehr siehe Link: Marya Kudasheva aus St. Petersburg, Russland: „Das stimmt und ich habe das Gefühl ich muss mir einen Bunker in den Kopf bauen, damit ich meine von der Informationsflut überschwemmten Ideen und Gedanken schützen kann, um originell zu sein und mich auf relevantes fokussieren zu können." Shelter in my head - Schutz in meinem Kopf - ein Bunker in meinem Kopf? - Ein Bild, das mich unweigerlich anzieht, in dem ich mich wieder finde. Den ganzen Kopf voll Zahlen, Problemen und und Anforderungen der Umwelt. Schlicht in schwarz-weiß Optik bleibt der Blick des Betrachters auf dem Wesentlichen. Kann dieser Mensch Hilfe und Entspannung in der Meditation finden? Fast scheint es so... Marya Kudasheva stammt aus Surgut, wohnt in St. Petersburg. Sie hat an der Surgut State Pedagogical studiert und ist verheiratet. Ordentlich aufgereiht zeugen diese Stühle von interessierten Menschen an der Straßenkunst. Heute sind die Stühle leer, wirken verlassen, schlendern doch die Zuschauer nach eigenem Ermessen durch die Ausstellung. Auf mich wirken diese verwaisten Stuhlreihen in der aktuellen Coronazeit weit trauriger und bedrückender als sie es im Jahr 2019 waren, als man unter der Bezeichnung "Corona" allenfalls ein Bier kannte. "Flexible Battle", iVann Garc: "Wish one day wars doesn't exist that military have nothing but just to do yoga and play with the kids". - Mit seinen Spielzeugsoldaten kehrt der mexikanische Künstler das Wesen des Krieges scheinbar um. iVann Garc aus Guanajuato, Mexiko überlegt: „Für mich persönlich stellt sich in diesem Bunker vor allem die Frage, warum gibt es Kriege und Kampfsoldaten. Warum gibt es Konflikte zwischen Ländern und Menschengruppen, worunter vor allem die Minderheiten der Gesellschaft leiden?“ IVann Garc hat an der ENAG Escuela Nacional de Artes Graficas studiert und wohnt heute in Patterson. Geboren wurde er in Vailla Yuriria, Guanajuato, Mexico.iVann Garc aus Guanajuato, Mexiko: iVann Garc aus Guanajuato, Mexiko: „Für mich persönlich stellt sich in diesem Bunker vor allem die Frage, warum gibt es Kriege und Kampfsoldaten. Warum gibt es Konflikte zwischen Ländern und Menschengruppen, worunter vor allem die Minderheiten der Gesellschaft leiden?“ Annabellas Traum ... Wunderschön farbige Gestaltung für mein Empfinden als positiver Gegensatz zum vorherigen Kriegsthema. Eine friedliche scheinbar entspannte Atmosphäre empfängt den geneigten Betrachter mit positiven Aspekten. Kräftige Farben sprechen für sich ... Eine perfekte Sonnenblume im Hintergrund lässt das scheinbar entspannte Mädchen in positiven hoffnungsvollen Glanz erscheinen. Nicht nur das junge Mädchen, dessen Mutter mir gern die Erlaubnis für dieses Foto gegeben hat, zeigen, dass auch die junge Genration von der Intention der Zwiesprache von Streetart mitgenommen wird. Floya Jam, Toulon, Frankreich: "Es wäre tatsächlich schön, wenn alle Menschen sich auf ein friedliches Universum einlassen würden und die Menschen, die friedliche Momente erleben auch dankbar dafür sind, dass es ihnen gut geht." Wohnt in Toulo, stammt aus Varagas - Die gleich gestalteten Namensbilder der Künstler sind von Fabio Fedele. Hoker One brachte die Titel der Kunstwerke mit der Spraydose über den Bildern in kalligraphischen Schriftzug ohne Vorlage über den Kunstwerken an. So werden die so unterschiedlichen Bilder durch einheitliche rote Fäden miteinander verbunden. Wie Lichtblicke wirken die einzelnen Kunstwerke im Einheitsgrau des Bunkers. Die Absicht von Street Art Künstlern, mit der urbanen Bevölkerung zu kommunizieren, ist offensichtlich ohne Altersbegrenzung. Seine in über 20 Jahren erworbenen kreativen Fähigkeiten in Sachen Kunst und Graffiti setzt Patrik Wolters ein, um auf die politischen und gesellschaftlichen Probleme in Südafrika aufmerksam zu machen. Im Vordergrund steht ein Junge mit einer Krone auf dem Kopf, ein beliebtest Street Art Stilmittel, um eine Person hervor zu heben. Ein Kind, die Zukunft eines jeden Landes. Bener1 hat dieses Kind auf eine Holzplatte gemalt, ausgesägt und mit einem Seil sozusagen in 3D in sein Bild installiert. Ergänzt wurde die Authentizität der Darstellung durch einige Wellpappen und Steinschutt. Eine Riesen- oder Königsprotea (Protea cynaroides), der Nationalblume Südafrikas rahmt das Gemälde wirkungsvoll ein. BeNer1 aus Garbsen bei Hannover sagt: „Leider ist es auch so, dass zahlreiche Kinder in Armut leben und kaum Perspektiven haben.“ Körperliche und psychische Gewalt und Aggression machen Danila (@SSHHOZZY) zu schaffen. Versteckt hinter zerfetztem Papier, Karton und Plastik versucht ein Auge Schutz und Sicherheit vor eben diesem zu finden. Nachdenklich stehe ich vor diesem auf den ersten Blick eher leisen Bild. Ich erwidere den Blick des neugierig? schauenden Auges ohne wirklich zu verstehen. - Mehr siehe Link: Danila Shmelev aus Moskau, Russland äußert sich: „Leider ist es aber so, dass zahlreiche Kinder und Menschen täglich physische und psychische Gewalt erleben.“ Carlos Alberto GH ist ein mexikanischer Straßenmaler und Kunstmaler. Schon als Kind entdeckte er für sich die Malerei und verbrachte die meiste Zeit seiner Kindheit mit Malen und Zeichnen und der erfolgreichen Teilnahme an Malwettbewerben. Im Laufe seiner Künstlerkarriere gewann er zahlreiche nationale und internationale Preise und hatte mehr als 50 Kunstausstellungen. (Rhine Side Gallery) Er studierte Kunstrestauration und –erhaltung doch seitdem er vor sechs Jahren mit Streetart in Kontakt kam, hat er sich immer mehr auf diese Kunstform konzentriert. Er nahm erfolgreich an zahlreichen Streetart Festivals in Amerika, Europa, Asien und Afrika teil. Heute ist er professioneller Street Artist und erstellt oftmals zusammen mit seiner Schwester Adry del Rocio unter dem Namen „Street art Mx“ weltweit Wand- und Straßenmalereien.

Vergessen ist der Preis, der bezahlt wurde. 10.000 Jahre gewandert durch einen Schleier von Tränen, um ein paar Glieder dieser Kette zu zerbrechen.

Concluding remarks by curator Fredda Wouters from Kevelar Change of perspective Love and peace is the hope of the world no The fact is that neither of them lives here anymore I do not think so: that peace is possible That life is better in love That we must radically protect our earth The truth is: That our future on this planet can no longer be saved I refuse to believe That we are part of something that goes beyond ourselves That we exist to change It's quite clear: That poverty is too overwhelming That racism cannot be overcome That our planet is stuck in an insoluble climate crisis I can't possibly believe That things will change for the better in the future It will turn out: That we can't help And you are wrong if you believe: that we can change it I am convinced: You can't change things It would be a lie if I said: There is hope!

My first thought about Michele's painting style was Cubism. During further research on the Internet, I then learned that this art movement actually wanted to differentiate itself from many things, including Cubism. Since in my opinion one cannot write any reports about it without a well-founded basic knowledge in artistic matters, I will leave it with the words below from Michele, who was kind enough to send me his intention for his picture. I just like it very much and I don't need more words on this. You can find a few thoughts and feelings in thepicture series . Michele : "Hello Kerstin, this is a copy of Depero, a futuristic painter of the 1930s. The picture is a homage to Beuys, who as a teacher instructs his students like the gondolier does with his trainee.

Artist information Cuboliquido Cuboliquido tells that since the 16th century, Italian street painters have been roaming the country to attract people's attention with expressive, sacred pictures in front of the churches. Since the materials used, such as chalk and pastel, were very perishable due to the weather, it has only been possible to preserve these images for posterity since the invention of photography. It's easier for the cheerful robot at the entrance to the silk weaver's house. For the time being, its preservation is assured, even if it patiently bears the rubbish of "forgetful" contemporaries. Anamorphic street painting has also been finding its way into Italy for about 20 years. This 3D chalk art, now also known as 3D street painting, greatly enhances street painting, producing extremely realistic moments. The viewer is automatically drawn into a lifelike scene, most impressively when paying attention to the specific point from which the image must be viewed. For his (Heart)ly robot, cuboliquido combined his passion for robots with 3D painting. He is often inspired by everyday objects that he perceives in his environment. They can then playfully combine the everyday with/to urban art. Here in Krefeld, two old, demolished mailboxes were the starting point for a funny robot. Source: cuboliquido.com, Wikipedia, freddart.de * * * Cuboliquido was born in Milan in 1974. He has lived from his art since 1992 and in 1994 he discovered his passion for street art. First as a graffiti artist and later as a traditional Madonnari artist (street painting of traditional Madonna images and religious motifs with pastel chalk). Today, two of his Madonnari artworks are on display in a basilica in Bethlehem and in Mexico City. Since 2009 he has particularly focused on anamorphic 3D street painting and has participated in many international street art festivals, where he has won numerous awards. He has presented his paintings across Europe, in Russia, in the USA, Latin America, Thailand, China, in the Middle East and in South Africa. He has worked for many well-known companies such as Disney, Universal Cinema, Amazon, Coca Cola, Samsung, Unilever, Warner Bros and many more. To date he has taken part in over 200 events of various kinds as a street painter. He is the first artist to combine 3D street painting with animated videos (video mapping) and his work has already been shown at three different art biennials and other contemporary art exhibitions. He was awarded the title of Maestro Madonnaro in Grazie di Curtatone and won first prize in the world's most important competition for 3D street art in Dubai in March 2017.

Tiberio Infos Annotation : With this artist, too, one can see that he understood the difficult situation of the people on the theater square and that it depresses him, that he considers a visual representation to be necessary, even essential. The title comes from the artist himself. Artist information Tiberio Mazzoccchi Tiberio: "KOJOTE Street Art work made in KREFELD (Germany) July 2021freehand drawing Beuys' most emotional performance: In 1974 the artist was locked in a cage with a coyote in New York for several days. He only has a felt blanket and a stick, which he describes as "Eurasian". Beuys' goal was to establish a relationship of trust between himself and the animal, a symbol of reconciliation between man and nature, but the work can also be read in a political sense, as a rite of reconciliation between modern-day Americans and their persecuted ancestors and imprisoned on reservations, symbolized by the captive coyote. In my work entitled "COYOTE" I wanted to draw a parallel to Beuys' work and his political message: the marginalization of Native Americans. So I saw that things have not improved to this day.... the people who routinely roam this place called "The Silk Factory" are vagabonds, desperate, drug addicts.... Marginalized and forgotten by society, just like the Native American tribes of North America were persecuted and marginalized."

Artist info (...) Annotation: When I visited again, I struck up a conversation with an elderly lady. I explained this picture to her as far as I could. When considering whether the horse would probably also be rolled over by the tidal wave or whether it is safe because it is part of nature, we came to no conclusion. After a moment's thought, she explained to me very confidently that where the horse was, the frame was still intact and that there was definitely a place where we could go to safety. Well, I haven't looked at the picture that way. But it was an interesting conversation, especially to see/hear how other visitors interpret a certain picture. So this art in urban space has already fulfilled its purpose. Infos Marion R. Artist information Marion Ruthardt Marion Ruthardt: "The narrow framework is the framework of industry and civilization, which nature ultimately cannot hold. It will break out at some point, as can be seen from the floods at the moment. The horse is also a part of nature, which breaks out. And ultimately the more staying power, when humanity has already wiped itself out, nature is still there. All signs point to the fact that nature has really had enough now. So the ship has to be turned 180 degrees now. In my opinion, it will don't work." Source: Marion Ruthard: personal * * * Marion Ruthhardt , born in Rheinhausen, was introduced to art early on, through a father who drew and the first art teacher, Volkram Anton Scharf. That's why she quickly switched to the field of nature and art after the classic basic education (high school, Abitur, higher commercial school). First she trained as a gardener in Kevelaer, near the city of Geldern, where an international street painting competition takes place every year. She only took part there for fun. Later, as an autodidact, she continued to develop in such a way that her passion for painting became her profession. In Geldern she rose to the master class and won a number of street painting competitions in Italy, Bodenwerder and Wilhemshaven. First as a classic copyist - but for several years now only anamorphic images have been in demand. This leads to orders from all over the world. Together with the street painter Gregor Wosik, she created numerous XXL 3d pictures and even received an entry in the Guinness Book of Records with a street painting of 750 m². She also helped with the creation of an XXL Megalodon Shark in Florida together with many other international artists to set a new world record. Since 2019 she has also been creating many individual works of art, which has given rise to new ideas and paths for her. Since then, to her great delight, there have been more and more commissions for facade and wall painting as well as for the design of electricity boxes, which helped her during the difficult time of the pandemic for artists and has aroused her interest as a new experience Source: official information ofCity of Krefeld You can find the newspaper report here:(...)

Graffiti I Streetart I Silk City Gallery 2021 I Seidenweberhaus Krefeld I Martini Pitture I Daniela Lazazzara I Beuys I Lifstye street art - Martino Pitture & Daniele Lazazzara/Italiy return Martino Anfang "Untitled" Martin: Facebook * Instagram Daniele: Facebook * Instagram Already on the stairs to the 1st floor you can see the strong blue tones of the Italian artists Martino Pitture & Daniele Lazazzara from Italy. You can find more information about the images below. (...) Artist information (...) Annotation: In this picture, the fascination for me at first came from the color "blue". This color dominated from day one and I kept scurrying by to see how the work would develop. In addition, two things particularly fascinated me. On the one hand, there were the exaggerated proportions of the two figures on the right. On the other hand, it was the kangaroo that, although it matched the two figures harmoniously with its coloring, was more angular and futuristic in style. However, the powerful image effect only became apparent after the removal of the scaffolding. Where am I looking? What does the rabbit mean? Questions upon questions I asked the two artists after the event. According to the artists themselves, the basic idea for their picture is nature and interpersonal relationships. The complexity of the interaction between nature and man should be presented. Daniele wants to bring people into the cities with his oversized kangaroo. The animals enliven a concrete landscape and Beuys will find (his) place in the kangaroo's belly. So far, Daniele provides his own idea, since the two actually want to encourage the visitor to write their own story. They specify individual elements, such as the rabbit. The rest is up to the viewer's imagination. I catch myself finding new ways of interpreting it the more often I look at the picture in the Seidenweberhaus or on the PC. For me, this picture is a very active picture, not only because I delved deeper into Beuys' life, but also because the two artists spoke very friendly and openly about their pictures. Martinos You can find verbatim explanations of his picture in the short interview below. According to the artists, the picture does not have a title, but it can be seen as a successful homage to Beuys. Short interview Martino & Daniele: Martino Pitture :"Hello Kerstin. The idea of the painting arose on a purely aesthetic level from Beuys' performance in which he showed pictures to a dead rabbit. But the core of my reflections concerns the human tendency to place themselves at the center of every thought. So I wanted to split up the characters by creating two symmetrical characters, the first of which has the live animal's point of view showing the world to a human skull. Then I like to give symbolic references in all my works without explicitly formulating a message, in order to leave room for interpretation. The stories the viewer makes up are often more interesting than those contained in the work." Question: Are the exaggerated proportions a sign of your special style or is the overly long neck of the figure on the right supposed to say something special? Yes, the characters in my oil paintings usually have these proportions. I try to combine aesthetic beauty with wrong proportions.

My drawing represents a surreal kangaroo, this animal protects the young in nature, in this case the kangaroo protects the structure and therefore the mystery of these spaces in others dimensions" Daniele is also a tattoo artist.

Streetart I Silk City Gallery I Seidenweberhaus I Krefeld I Sibtikus I Vanessa und Lydia Hitzfeld I 3D Streetpainting I Streetart Photography street art - Vanessa and Lydia Hitzfeld/germany The Sibticus, or there is always a way out Anfang Octopus return youtube Vanessa: Instagram Lydia: Facebook * Homepage The pink Sibticus not only wraps around the building with its 7 tentacles, it also inevitably casts a spell over people. Artist information (...) Artist information Vanessa and Lydia Hitzfeld Infos Hitzfeld Annotation : An oversized octopus, or rather, one7-armed sibticus by Vanessa and Lydia Hitzfeld seems to wriggle out of the dilapidated silk weaver's house and enclose the whole building with his arms. Does he want to crush it, destroy it, as the "city fathers" decided to do in the near future? This creature with its intense pink/purple tones, which extends over all 5 floors that are set back, does not really appear threatening. Rather, it seems to invite people. Inviting you to the center of the house, where art meets people. Or rather, would hit if we let ourselves go. For me, this means young and old people, Krefeld and visitors and also those who I perceive as "people from Theaterplatz". That doesn't mean that I have to approve of what's happening there. It means that I/we/you don't look away, but perceive. That also belongs to Krefeld. During what felt like 1001 photo tours to the Seidenweberhaus, I got into conversation with many different people. Among other things, many older people were very interested in the various works of art and a short conversation about them. By the way, I got the tip for the best place to take photos from a "scene person" ;-). This particular point of view is necessary to the thananamorphic painting to be able to perceive the designed picture as a whole. In order to be able to accomplish this mammoth project, the artists had to "guide" each other, ie the person painting was told over the radio where exactly the lines had to be. The two artists received support from some colleagues who had already completed their own works. An impressive achievement that the artists spontaneously put together and completed! You can find out how the kitty made it into the picture in the series of pictures :-). * * * Vanessa Hitzfeld studied fine art and restoration at the art academy in Lage/Westphalia, began training as a glass painter in Derrik's glass painting workshop in Kevelaer and studied fine art at the art academy in Düsseldorf, specializing in painting. There she was a student of Jörg Immendorf. After his death she was a student of Markus Lüpertz and later a master student of Thal Rosenzweig. At the Düsseldorf Art Academy, she developed her own style of painting in oil and mixed media on canvas. She took part in group and individual exhibitions in museums and galleries in, for example, Koblenz, Moers, Düsseldorf and Wuppertal. She also took part with her art in several auctions of paintings by selected artists in the K20 as part of the "Night of the Museums" in Düsseldorf. During her studies in Düsseldorf she became a self-employed street artist. Her street painting has accompanied her since childhood and has no recognizable connection to her work on canvas. While Vanessa as a young girl painted more classic street paintings with pastel chalk, today she has specialized in the creation of 3D street art on floors and walls as an independent entrepreneur. She also designs scenery, exhibition stands, facades, interiors and gives workshops. You can find her work at many international festivals, in shopping centers or amusement parks. She has won numerous awards and prizes in national and international competitions and has also made an entry in the Guinness Book of Records with an XXL 3D street painting in teamwork with Gregor Wosik and Lydia Hitzfeld, among others. Since 2020 she has been working on a new project with an artist friend. "Photography meets painting". Her photographs of body painting work have been published in Vouge Portugal, People Huts and Allure Korea. Source: official information ofcity Krefeld created by Freddart Streetpainitng Lydia Hitzfeld began street painting in 2004. She learned this form of art as an autodidact. In the meantime, the freelance artist is in demand overseas and in Europe as a street painter and, in addition to classic street painting, is also active in advertising and illusionistic 3D painting. In 2012, together with Gregor Wosik and Vanessa Hitzfeld, among others, she created the world's largest three-dimensional street painting with "Noah's Ark". A few years later she was part of the team that set another world record for the largest 3D street painting on the floor in the USA. In addition to many successful participations in competitions in Germany, she also took part in the oldest, traditional street festival "Incontro national dei madonnari" in Grazie/Italy, where she received several awards. She loves to create the pictures on the street, while doing so to feel how delicate skin can be, how heavy a wrinkle, how hard a light, how an eye comes alive.To see how a three-dimensional canyon develops under your own hands and people stop in front of the pictures and are amazed and unbelievable enjoy it or become part of the picture. Street painting has become an integral part of her life and it is impossible to imagine life without it. When she reaches for paint, she steps out of everyday life into the fascinating world of art and takes the viewer into another Dimension.
