Street-Art – Urban works of art

Streetart is non-conformist and full of fantasy. Streetart surprises in the most unusual places, makes the walls of houses glow and brings the grey monotony of big cities like Berlin or New York to life: Street-Art has revolutionized the art scene. It transforms arbitrary objects in urban space into art that is to be taken seriously and has long been regarded as one of the most lively art forms of our time.  In our international art gallery you will find selected works by renowned streetart artists such as Alex Monopoly, BAMBI Street Artist, FRINGE, Mr. Brainwash, Richard Orlinski, Takashi Murakami and XOOOOX. Our focus is on original graphics, works on paper and canvas as well as sculptures. As befits Street-Art, many artworks are applied to found objects and objects made of wood, metal or stone. As the first gallery in Germany, we have Mr. Brainwash in our program since 2011. The street artist became known with the movie “Exit Through the Gift Shop” and is one of the most dazzling figures of the scene since his furious first exhibition in Los Angeles. Especially since the British artist Banksy with his Girl with Balloon celebrates successes all over the world and Streetart constantly breaks new records at auctions, Streetart is in the focus of international collectors.

Street-Art is actually always characterized by the lush use of spray paint and of course stencils. On the street, the actual origin of graffiti and Streetart, the attachment of artwork is still illegal. Therefore, it must go quickly for the artists. Stencils and sprays are ideal for this. The stencil thus became the feature of Street-Art because it is the most commonly used technique of graffiti art. For the galleries, this technique is usually transferred as mixed media unique pieces on transportable substrates such as paper, wood or corten steel.
