Monkeybird´s work show a search for balance between dreams and reality. Loaded with symbols and allegries, their pieces are an emotional and rational discussion about human progress. Most MonkeyBird artworks incorporate a humanoid monkey and bird, which represent the two faces of humankind, the monkey being the realist, and the bird being a dreamer. The artists try to follow the ancestor’s knowledge and adapt it to reach the modern citizens mind, with symbolic pictures. Monkeybird are inspired by ephemeral monumentality, religious and mythological paintings and art nouveaux. The two artists met in the street of Bordeaux in 2009.

Otto Schade "Say it with flowers" Acrylics, Spray paint on canvas 100x100cm (also available as paper version 60x60cm) Part of STENCILS ONLY show opening this Friday. Send me a pm to receive the catalogue of the show. Otto Schade (also known as “Osch”) is a Chilean artist based in London. He received his higher education at the Bio Bio University where he studied Construction and Design in Chile. Schade’s work includes abstract, surreal and pop art. In 2009 he started painting on the streets mainly in the UK´s urban center of Shoreditch (London) using the pseudonym “Osch”. By using sophisticated stenciling techniques Osch evolved his distinctive ribbon style, which he uses to criticize and ironically depict some of the world’s current social issues. Many of his works hold satirical messages in order to raise social awareness and reach the boundaries of human vision. This political and social commentary is often present in his practice as an urban artist and has been an inherent feature of his works, which increasingly appear as street art around the world. Osch has painted at many art festivals such as the biggest street art festival in Europe, “Upfest” Bristol,[5] “Sand, Sea and Spray” Blackpool,[6] “City of Colors” Birmingham, “Wynwood” Miami US, “Sunscape” Malta, as well as “Stick Together” and “Urban Art Festival”[7] both in Amsterdam. #urbanart #streetart #stencil #vernissage #art #collecting #gallery #artshow #contemporaryart #duesseldorf #weloveart #emotion #girl #figurative #instaart #artoninstagram #instagraff #painting #zeitgenössischekunst #interiordesign #collector #artlover #emergingartist #design #artinfluencer @otto_schade (hier: PrettyPortal) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClqiTSnN0Ia/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

L.E.T. „One room apartment“ Acrylics, Spray paint on old metal barrel, 75cm x Ø38cm Part of STENCILS ONLY show opening this Friday. Send me a pm to receive the catalogue of the show. L.E.T. is a french born stencil artist. He started his artistic work in the street with Graffiti, but soon finds out, that there are imageries that fascinates him more than style writing. During travels to Paris and London, He discovers stencil works and is immediately hooked. After his return to his home town Düsseldorf, where he is still living and working, he creates his first own stencil pieces. Since 1992 he is active on the street and is one of the first streetart pioneers. L.E.T. takes a critical look at topics of our Zeitgeist. He slips in the perspective of an angry young adult, who has no understanding for the typical outcomes of capitalism and abuses in our consumer and fun society. In his works he criticizes war, handling of refugees, dealing with our environment and climate, among others. By doing so he is never finger pointing, but always strikingly charming, playing his provocative statements, in a subtile way. L.E.T. is mainly working in black and white with just a few color accents to emphasize the statement. With his stencils he paints his protagonists, who are often the center of his imagery. In addition he uses chalk drawings and text messages to add more and more twists and details in his narration. While he used merely only stencils in his older pieces, the chalk drawings are getting more and more relevant in his current work.

Using a special stencil-technique (after Artiste Ouvrier -together in collective WCA), they work exclusively with their own photography’s. In addition to painting, the artist couple also made sculptures out of wood and metal. Complex nested facade elements to which they paint reminiscent of residential honeycomb house fronts. #urbanart #streetart #stencil #vernissage #art #collecting #gallery #artshow #contemporaryart #duesseldorf #weloveart #emotion #girl #figurative #instaart #artoninstagram #instagraff #painting #zeitgenössischekunst #interiordesign #collector #artlover #emergingartist #design #artinfluencer (hier: PrettyPortal) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cll9lWvtE9l/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

seileise "Geldmänner" for the upcoming STENCILS OINLY show opening on2nd of December. In this edition of STENCILS ONLY we are showing seileise for the first time in our gallery. SeiLeise is a street artist from Cologne. Having started with graffiti as a teenager, the trained graphic designer soon aquired a liking for the ‘art of the street’, discovered street art for himself and developed into an artist with and through it. Meanwhile, he has been working as a street artist for over 10 years and is active on the streets of the world. You can find his paste-ups from Lisbon over Hamburg up to London. But above all in Cologne, his hometown. Knowing full well that these are always temporary works of art, street art is exposed to permanent change: Wind and weather, passers-by, urban dynamics and transformation processes do their part to make street art a transient art form. At the same time, this is what makes street art so special. #streetart #stencil #vernissage #art #collecting #gallery #artshow #contemporaryart #cologne #duesseldorf #weloveart #money #business #figurative #instaart #artoninstagram #instagraff #painting #zeitgenössischekunst #interiordesign #collector #artlover #emergingartist #design #artinfluencer @seileise (hier: PrettyPortal) https://www.instagram.com/p/CliupjLtbqk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Marc C. Woehr "N 36.050278 E 14.264722"on display at The Pretty Walls Show until 25th of November. Marc C. Woehr started his aesthetic production over twenty years ago on the street. Since then, the street as the smallest unit, architecture and the city as a large structure, as a matrix, have never left him. He has penetrated and examined them in all directions. While watching his works you are inevitably reminded of the main representatives of the Russian avant garde; names such as Kazimir Malevich and El Lissitzky come to mind. The relationship between the works of these artists and those of Marc C. Woehr can be observed not only on the level of the formal execution, i.e. with regard to shapes and colours, but also on the level of content. Designing new constructions in space means, both for the avant garde painters and for Woehr, creating new realities for designing the city as a future vision. By doing so, he is far from wanting to create images of existing cities. For Marc, a specific place is only a motive for playing with the architecture of a city, its structure and dynamism, and for creating multi-layer images that leave the viewer plenty of conceptual space for his own interpretations. #urbanart #streetart #mural #graphic #abstract #art #kunst #duesseldorf #gallery #contemporaryart #paris #stuttgart #weloveart #painting #instaart #artoninstagram #instagraff #graffit #zeitgenössischekunst #interiordesign #collector #artlover #emergingartist #design #artinfluencer @marcwoehr @theo_lopez_artist @l.e.t._les.enfants.terribles @magic.nut_ @skio1 @bust_the_drip @roman_klonek @d3monart @top_notch_art @goingurbanana @visit_duesseldorf (hier: PrettyPortal) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkyGfU2N9Jk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

DEMON, 100x80cm, acrylics on canvas, on display at "The Pretty Walls Show" until 25th of November with works from all other artists who participated in Pretty Wall Bilk. Send me a PM for inquires. Ingo Ahlborn aka Demon was born 1974 in Essen. In the mid of the 80ies he gets a hand on the book "Subway art" and discovers graffiti pieces and style writing, while traveling with the S-Bahn. Immediately hooked, he is a very early adopter and represents the first first generation of graffiti writers in his area. From the start he is amazed by the possibilities of spray paint and works on the development of his skills. Soon he is able to paint photorealistic elements in his paintings. The combination of realism and style writing is significant for his visual concept and gives him a lot of attention and respect from other writers. Demon is always pushing the limits, experiments with stencils and various imageries. Since 2010 he works together with the city of Essen to develop and paint empty facades and murals. In 2012 he starts working with David Hufschmidt aka Top Notch and founds the Hafendampf Graffiti Festival with him. Together witch Top Notch he paints many huge murals all over the Ruhr area. Today Demon is very versatile in his style. He mixes realism and style writing and is stunningly skillful with spray paint. He works on walls as well as on canvas and his paintings have been on display in various exhibitions. #urbanart #streetart #mural #graphic #abstract #art #kunst #duesseldorf #gallery #contemporaryart #paris #stuttgart #weloveart #painting #instaart #artoninstagram #instagraff #graffit #zeitgenössischekunst #interiordesign #collector #artlover #emergingartist #design #artinfluencer @theo_lopez_artist @marcwoehr @l.e.t._les.enfants.terribles @magic.nut_ @skio1 @bust_the_drip @roman_klonek @d3monart @top_notch_art @goingurbanana @visit_duesseldorf @a_r_d_i_f (hier: PrettyPortal) https://www.instagram.com/p/CktCCP_tY4Y/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
