to berlin for a project with JR. to be part of "Planet Prozess", a massive urban art event now taking place in Berlin.
For the organizers"
"(...)The participating artists place a special emphasis on the conjunction of internal and external space. The exibition will be a dynamic process whereby the Artists develop their work over the three weeks. For one month the former Senatsreservenspeicher, situated at the Spree, will become the nerve center connecting all artistic processes. “Planet Prozess” invites the public to join the creation-process every day of the exhibition; to meet the artists and to discover the variety of urban creation and communication. Participating and observing, the public can experience the diversity of street writing, graffiti or other forms of urban expression.
After 21 days the creative process comes to an end. We are going to celebrate the results with a Block Party and a second Opening. The works will be on show for another ten days. The internationally renowned artists, from train-writer to fine artist, reflect their national and cultural context in their work."
40 Artists/12 Nations
4 Floors/1.200 Quadratmeter
1 City/1 Process
Opening: 20. JULI 2007 6 pm
Final & Blockparty: 11. AUGUST 2007 2 pm

I really wish his stuff translated better to prints, but considering the size of most of his work I guess thats hard to do.
I really want that Monkey print, but not for 700.00.
Anyone know anything about these

If anything, street art is the MOST LITERAL FORM OF ART! if street art has made any negative impression on society today, its that it has made every 13 yr old with $100 and an eBay account into an art know-it-all.

Amazing.
At first I wasnt feeling this guy but its starting to catch me.
Still not feelin the prints though. Even if it were a 5' silk it wouldnt capture what even photos of his installations express, they must be really something in person.

Must be commissioned. How else do you get to spend a day on scaffolding without anyone noticing?
A lot of times... you can just get away with it on huge joints like this.
People will just assume its legit because of the scale and the production factor.
Modern art = I could do that + yeah... but you didnt
amazing. i do, however, think that the prints capture the essence of his style. the effect just isn't quite as overwhelming.
