It was a popular stop-off at shift-change, when workers would call in for a quick beer before travelling home by bus or train. In its place came a huge hypermarket, which the council hoped would revive the city\u2019s fortunes. <em>Flat Glo<\/em> by Berlin-based US artist Brad Downey reverses this development, at least for a brief moment. When viewed from the right perspective, his installation makes the hypermarket disappear. The motivation behind his work is less a nostalgic look at bygone, more-prosperous days. Rather, it responds to the argument, often ventured in planning debates, that the Globus hypermarket creates a barrier separating the city from the former ironworks and now World Heritage Site. This barrier is a big reason why many of the international visitors to the World Heritage Site fail to find their way into the city centre.<br><br>Daniel Bauer<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":145,"title":"2 - Coco Bergholm","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">2<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Coco Bergholm<\/span>","left":"66%","top":"67%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">2<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Key Moments<\/h1>\n <h2 class=\"exhibit-meta-info\">Die Gesellschaft der Stadtwanderer<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">Coco Bergholm<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/2024_Urban-Art_Biennale\/Coco-Berghol_Key-Moments__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Coco Berghol Key Moments\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-8527\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-8527\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Coco Berghol Key Moments\n \n <br>Copyright: Coco Bergholm \n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Coco Bergholm <\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>Coco Bergholm<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2024, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/coco-bergholm\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=6\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p><em>Key Moments<\/em>, a large-scale internet project by Berlin-based artist Coco Bergholm, comprises a set of works that explore pivotal moments of both personal and universal significance.

He is considered one of the most important pioneers of more recent Street Art, which became popular around the world at the turn of the millennium, and on which today\u2019s entire Urban Art movement is based. Already in the 1990s Zevs played through various experiments of what in the meanwhile are genres: from logo tags, for him, a throw-up as a cloud from which a lightning bolt strikes\u2014almost in the way the mythical Zeus would hurl it\u2014to shaded silhouettes, to drawings called reverse graffiti using high-pressure cleaners on dirty walls. With so-called drip paintings on and over logos of well-known brands, which he then ambiguously named <em>liquidated<\/em>, Zevs already entered the field of word-based samplings that he varies with his project <em>Perpetual Ending<\/em>, which he started in 2005. The iconic lettering <em>The End<\/em>, very familiar to us from Hollywood films, is now suspended in the Ventilator Hall of the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks. Projected onto it is what seems to be an endless stream of global news items from our time. They make an even more dramatic and dystopian impression in the installation than they already do in their own right.<\/p><p>Robert Kaltenh\u00e4user<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":107,"title":"5","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">5<\/span>","left":"64%","top":"47%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">5<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Golden Pyramid<\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/urban-art-biennale-2022\/Icy-Sot__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Icy Sot\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-3905\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-3905\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Icy Sot\n \n <br>Copyright: Weltkulturerbe V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte \/ Karl Heinrich Veith \n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Weltkulturerbe V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte \/ Karl Heinrich Veith <\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2022, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Dimensions<\/h3>\n <p>2,5 x 4,1 x 3,8 m <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Material<\/h3>\n <p>Holz, Kunststoff<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=6\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>The brothers Icy & Sot, who now reside in New York, began with street art in their native Tehran around 2006, initially inspired by skating. They took their first steps in this art form with stickers and stencils; this kind of art was not widespread in Iran at the time, and its characterization as dissident activity meant that it was dangerous for artists to carry out such work. Soon they expanded their practice to include the genres for which they are known today: urban sculpture and installation. Traditional historiography usually only remembers the names of rulers and leaders, be they pharaohs or industrial barons. But these did not move stones or smelt ore; instead, they often exploited those who brought them success and prosperity through hard physical labor: countless nameless workers. The imposing <em>Golden Pyramid<\/em> that Icy & Sot have erected on the roof of the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks is conceived as an \u201code to the workers of all times.\u201d Are there any pitfalls lurking in this pyramid?

The latter feature special colour combinations: a pale pink and strong, clear red often play an important role, contrasting with other pastel or primary tones and elements in black and white. As a rule, the composition of such works is clearly related to the respective framing. Kitra cites artists such as Frank Stella, Peter Halley and Bridget Riley as influences. What sets him apart, however, is the additional influence of urban art; the structures and rhythms of graffiti writing shine through in his pictures. Architecture not only enters into dialogue with paintings on built surfaces but also increasingly proffers its own sculptural wooden constructions. Within the infinite possibilities of geometric constellations, there lies a great freedom. Kitra\u2019s project for the Urban Art Biennale 2024 is a tower-like installation called <em>Camouflage<\/em>. At 10 metres in height, it is his largest work to date. Notwithstanding its title, the multicoloured design contrasts starkly with the surroundings in the ore yard of the World Heritage Site V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte. Coming 100 years after Vladimir Tatlin\u2019s unrealised tower project, the work\u2019s lofty form prompts the question as to whether it should be read as post-utopian or even, already, neo-utopian.<br><br><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; color: black;\">Robert Kaltenh\u00e4user<\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":110,"title":"9 - DNLM","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">9<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - DNLM<\/span>","left":"74%","top":"50%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">9<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>I Can Not Even Think About Art <\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">DNLM<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/2024_Urban-Art_Biennale\/DNLM_JD_kompr__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"DNLM JD kompr\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-8209\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-8209\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">DNLM JD kompr\n \n <br>Copyright: Jeanette Dittmar \n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Jeanette Dittmar <\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>DNLM<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2024, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/dnlm\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=6\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>Danilo Milovanovi\u0107, alias DNLM, grew up in Bosnia-Herzegovina before studying art and design in Ljubljana. He focuses on social issues, problems and phenomena, using a variety of means, and is generally representative of the quieter, subtler side of urban art.<br>Walls peppered with bullet holes are to be found in many countries. In the former Yugoslavia, which succumbed to ethnonationalism, they tell of a more recent history. Compared to the most recent past, however, even that is a long time ago.<br>The antihuman nexus of identity politics and geopolitics, invariably served up with great business opportunities and double standards, has already moved on to pastures new. While presidents and profiteers move to advance their agendas over the dead bodies of tens of thousands of civilians, the climate is becoming increasingly difficult for artists who maintain that art should be something other than a good investment, like shares in Rheinmetall.<br>\u201cI Can Not Even Think About Art,\u201d thinks Milovanovi\u0107 as he metaphorically reaches for a gun. In his work \u2013 which he calls a \u201ccombination of destructive technology and defensive testimony\u201d \u2013 these words appear as if accurately shot into the foundations of the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks \u2013 a place that, long before anyone here began to think about art, was itself part of the military-industrial complex during the two World Wars. Tellingly, he has also scattered empty rounds across the floor, like hundreds of pieces of gold.<\/p><p>Robert Kaltenh\u00e4user<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":112,"title":"10 - Rocco und seine Br\u00fcder","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">10<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Rocco und seine Br\u00fcder<\/span>","left":"54%","top":"56%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">10<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Deus ex Machina <\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\"> Rocco und seine Br\u00fcder<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/2024_Urban-Art_Biennale\/Rocco_KHV_kompr__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Rocco KHV kompr\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-8157\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-8157\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Rocco KHV kompr\n \n <br>Copyright: Karl Heinrich Veith \n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Karl Heinrich Veith <\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p> Rocco und seine Br\u00fcder<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2024, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/rocco-und-seine-brueder\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=6\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>Rocco und seine Br\u00fcder are one of the most active collectives at the crossover between urban art and agitational activism. In terms of art-historical analogies, they could be described as Dondi White meets Klaus Staeck, with an added dash of Yes Men. Religious props and motifs have featured a number of times in the Berlin group\u2019s work: a church pew in front of an ATM, a policeman in a confessional, a graffiti variation on the creation of Adam and, in 2019 at the World Heritage Site V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte, a church window depicting the graffiti-sprayed doors of a subway train. These works offer an allegorical dramatisation of other forms of social criticism or celebration of subcultures. By contrast, <em>Deus ex Machina<\/em> takes aim at the problematic nature of religion itself and \u2013 cautiously formulated \u2013 religion\u2019s complicity in what human rights advocates would designate as \u201cevil\u201d: the benediction of weapons of war, the forging of new identities, the conquering of \u201choly\u201d lands, the justification of genocide and the suppression of the freedom to pursue life as one sees fit. Here, the motif of the leaded church window makes a return on the tracks of a Wiesel tank. Let us therefore hope that the fragility of this construction will be confirmed on the plane of human history. If not, the god who made iron can continue to exult.<br><br>Robert Kaltenh\u00e4user<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":103,"title":"12 - Mardi Noir","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">12<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Mardi Noir<\/span>","left":"67%","top":"64%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">12<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Finger weg!<\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">Mardi Noir<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/2024_Urban-Art_Biennale\/Mardi_Noir_Hand_Moellerh__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Mardi Noir Hand Moellerh\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-8524\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-8524\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Mardi Noir Hand Moellerh\n \n <br>Copyright: Karl Heinrich Veith \n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Karl Heinrich Veith <\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>Mardi Noir<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2024, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/mardi-noir\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=7\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>The artistic signature of Arzhel Prioul, alias Mardi Noir, is easily identifiable in <em>Finger weg!<\/em> The French street artist uses the symbolic language of pictograms, removing them from their usual, rational context, enlarging them to reveal their composition of individual colour pixels, and placing them in unusual locations.

The London artist, who has also experimented with skull motifs, alphabet pasta and stencil graffiti, makes biggest use of the symbols of a white rabbit (\u201cFollow!\u201d) and a tie-wearing figure with a TV head (\u201cConsume!\u201d) \u2013 both are well-known figures of protest graphics. These are flanked by slogans in headline style: \u201cBuy the illusion\u201d, \u201cForget you ever saw me\u201d.<br>Sometimes, he uses his own posters like a construction kit, combining them to create collaged compositions. In any event, the desired effect is presaged by the artist\u2019s own name. Ironically, the provocative, often anti-capitalist posters are also available as art prints. But who ever claimed there was a right life in the wrong one? Yet there certainly is one in the tradition of John Heartfield and Barbara Kruger.<br>And so it is that Benjamin Irritant mixes paste and wallpapers his surroundings \u2013 so that more collages can emerge from collages.<br><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; color: black;\"><br>Robert Kaltenh\u00e4user<br><\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":113,"title":"27 - Studierende der Ecole Nationale Sup\u00e9rieure d'Architecture de Strasbourg (ENSAS) ","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">27<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Studierende der Ecole Nationale Sup\u00e9rieure d'Architecture de Strasbourg (ENSAS) <\/span>","left":"37%","top":"58%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">27<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Organes industriels<\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">Studierende der Ecole Nationale Sup\u00e9rieure d'Architecture de Strasbourg (ENSAS) <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>Studierende der Ecole Nationale Sup\u00e9rieure d'Architecture de Strasbourg (ENSAS) <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=6\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>Artists and lecturers Arzhel Prioul and Mathieu Tremblin staged a workshop with 36 students from the \u00c9cole Nationale Sup\u00e9rieure d'Architecture de Strasbourg (ENSAS). Their subject was the artistic use of urban billposting, with the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks providing an allegory of a world after the withdrawal from fossil fuels. The workshop posed the following questions: What future might be envisaged for a post-industrial wasteland and ruin? And: Which useful ecosystems can be hosted by a UNESCO World Heritage Site?<br>The second group produced a display on the subject of \u201cplumes of smoke\u201d. Here, the ironworks is reimagined as a body complete with \u201cindustrial organs\u201d, which represent various social and environmental problems in an allegorical manner. Five locations within the ironworks stand for these problems, each narrated with its own story: the sintering hall symbolises the alienation resulting from work and worker protest; the blower hall stands for the release of carbon into the atmosphere; the blast furnaces represent global warming, the water tower the scarcity of water; and \u201cParadise\u201d shows a possible redemption in the shape of a different form of extraction by this industry.<br><br>Jeanette Dittmar <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":114,"title":"28 - The Wa","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">28<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - The Wa<\/span>","left":"33%","top":"60%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">28<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Torches of Freedom <\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">The Wa<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/2024_Urban-Art_Biennale\/The-WA_Oliver-Dietze_kompr__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"The WA Oliver Dietze kompr\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-8536\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-8536\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">The WA Oliver Dietze kompr\n \n <br>Copyright: Oliver Dietze\n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Oliver Dietze<\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>The Wa<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2024, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Dimensions<\/h3>\n <p>H\u00f6he 70 m <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Material<\/h3>\n <p>Papier, Acrylfarbe <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/the-wa\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=6\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>Smoking like a chimney is seriously damaging to the health of the individual and also has disastrous consequences collectively. This is an analogy that Berlin-based French artist The Wa recalls with his work for the Urban Art Biennale 2024. Here, the smokestacks of the industrial age are emblematic of the anthropogenic environmental destruction that has brought the planet to the brink of collapse. The prosperity and freedoms that many people associate with industrialisation have come at a high price and are illusive. And although the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks no longer blows out tons of fumes and dust into the atmosphere every day, as it once did when it was in operation, steel production is still one of industry\u2019s largest emitters of greenhouse gases. The goal of climate-neutral, genuinely \u201cgreen\u201d steel is still far away. With its title <em>Torches of Freedom<\/em>, the work alludes to a marketing campaign by the tobacco industry in the first third of the 20th century, which tried to sell smoking as an act of female emancipation. The work displays a characteristic feature of The Wa\u2019s many years of work in urban environments: it is both accessible and critical in a playful way so as to encourage reflection on the part of the viewer.<br><br>Daniel Bauer<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":115,"title":"29 - Isaac Cordal","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">29<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Isaac Cordal<\/span>","left":"29%","top":"59%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">29<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Sleepwalker <\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">Isaac Cordal<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/urban-art-biennale-2022\/Cordal_Isaac_Eisentraeger__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Cordal Isaac Eisentraeger\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-3848\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-3848\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Cordal Isaac Eisentraeger\n \n <br>Copyright: Weltkulturerbe V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte \/ Hans Georg Merkel \n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Weltkulturerbe V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte \/ Hans Georg Merkel <\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>Isaac Cordal<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2018<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Dimensions<\/h3>\n <p>H\u00f6he 18 cm <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Material<\/h3>\n <p>Kunstharz <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/isaac-cordal\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=6\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>Isaac Cordal is best known for his <em>Cement Eclipses<\/em> projects that involve placing miniature cement sculptures in unusual urban and post-industrial surroundings. At first glance, these sculptures are reminiscent of Slinkachu's \"Little People\". Their symbolism is different, however. In fact, little of what Cordal does can be described as friendly or playful (he was once actively involved in death metal subculture together with Exorcism (Fanzine) and Dismal (Band). For the most part, the figures he creates are facing doom of some sort, be it in the form of the rising tides of climate change, the desperation of captivity, or violent or tragic acts such as murder and suicide. Through his groups of sculptures, Cordal portrays dystopian social situations in locations such as factories, labour camps and totalitarian party assemblies. Desolation and exorcism, indeed. But Isaac Cordal also demonstrates understanding and empathy for his little people. They don't have it easy, after all. He calls them sleepwalkers, a name that stands for their insistence on looking the other way in the face of imminent catastrophe.<br><br>Robert Kaltenh\u00e4user<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":117,"title":"30 - Pillippe Baudelocque","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">30<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Pillippe Baudelocque<\/span>","left":"24%","top":"59%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">30<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Genius Generates Gates<\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">Pillippe Baudelocque<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/urban-art-biennale-2022\/Beaudeloque__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Beaudeloque\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-3708\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-3708\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Beaudeloque\n \n <br>Copyright: Philippe Baudelocque\n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Philippe Baudelocque<\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>Pillippe Baudelocque<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2015, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Dimensions<\/h3>\n <p>2,6 x 34 m <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Material<\/h3>\n <p>Kreide<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=6\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>Philippe Baudelocque offers an unusual yet compelling response to the dilemma faced by street art now that it is being appropriated by the art establishment. Like any form of property damage, a certain degree of ephemerality \u2013 or at least unpredictability \u2013 is part and parcel of working in outdoor urban spaces. Artists have reacted to this ephemerality by deploying methods that aim for longevity, such as using automotive paint or engraving subway trains' windows. Nevertheless, artists have to bear in mind that their works may soon be cleaned away or painted over, or even that a wall may be torn down or blocked off from view. Urban-Artists are always aware of the transience of the works they produce. In the protective sphere offered by art collections and institutional exhibitions, however, this element of dynamism disappears. Philippe Baudelocque has developed a simple yet ingenious way of maintaining the tension. He makes site-specific works using one of the least permanent materials imaginable: chalk. The slightest touch or splash of water can destroy parts of his work. But this is what anchors Baudelocque's dreamy, sensitive drawings in the moment, providing receptive viewers with a direct relationship to the here and now.<br><br>Robert Kaltenh\u00e4user<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":118,"title":"31 - Cranio","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">31<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Cranio<\/span>","left":"21%","top":"57%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">31<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>I buy Trees<\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\"> Cranio<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/urban-art-biennale-2022\/Cranio_0500__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Cranio 0500\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-3489\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-3489\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Cranio 0500\n \n <br>Copyright: Weltkulturerbe V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte \/ Karl Heinrich Veith \n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Weltkulturerbe V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte \/ Karl Heinrich Veith <\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p> Cranio<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2017, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Dimensions<\/h3>\n <p>220 x 250 cm <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Material<\/h3>\n <p>Acrylfarbe, Spr\u00fchlack, Holz <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/cranio\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=6\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>As with every self-respecting urban artist, Fabio de Oliveira Parnaiba from S\u00e3o Paulo, Brasil, has turned his nickname into his artist's pseudonym. Cranio means \"skull\", but also \"smart\". Like all the other urban artists from S\u00e3o Paulo worth their name, Cranio has come up with a typical signal colour for his characters. In his case, this colour is blue. Between the yellow of Os G\u00eameos and the green of Finok, he has now created an important niche for himself. He openly admits that he is a great admirer of the aforementioned artists and that they have influenced him greatly. <br>As well as his typical signal colour, the colour blue has a further significance: Cranio uses it to represent the fate of Brazil's indigenous peoples, who he portrays in blue. His images show them in comical situations, most of which involve confrontations with trash products from companies such as McDonald's or Red Bull. Cranio therefore does not shy away from criticizing the same multinational companies other urban artists happily allow their projects to be sponsored by. Cranio\u2019s work <em>I buy Trees<\/em> at the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks is a reminder of deforestation in the Amazonian rain forest, which is increasingly destroying the basis for the livelihood of the indigenous people.<br><br>Robert Kaltenh\u00e4user<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":116,"title":"32 - M.

A cheeky grinning yellow street cat has quite deservedly become an urban cult figure. The favorite stomping ground of this likeable animal are crazy spots above the rooftops of the city. People ask themselves in wonder: How could the painter get up there at all? But this is precisely the materialized mystery, the proof that the supposedly impossible is possible, the forbidden yet feasible. The key to understanding graffiti. Monsieur Chat \u2013 does the name refer only to the cat itself or also to its creator? Probably both. Thoma Vuille, as the artist behind the cat is officially known, began painting the figure on walls uninvited in 1997. The cat first appeared in Orl\u00e9ans, then haunted the capital of Paris and has since then been spotted in world metropolises from New York to Tokyo, as well as in Africa or the Balkans. Since 2015, it has also been grinning at visitors to the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks.<br><br>Robert Kaltenh\u00e4user<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":119,"title":"33 - Levalet","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">33<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Levalet<\/span>","left":"22%","top":"42%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">33<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Le retour du refoul\u00e9 <\/h1>\n <h2 class=\"exhibit-meta-info\">Serie: Les Invisible <\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\"> Levalet<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/urban-art-biennale-2022\/LeValet-_2__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"LeValet 2\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-3741\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-3741\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">LeValet 2\n \n <br>Copyright: Weltkulturerbe V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte \/ Karl Heinrich Veith \n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Weltkulturerbe V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte \/ Karl Heinrich Veith <\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p> Levalet<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2017, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Dimensions<\/h3>\n <p>200 x 200 cm <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Material<\/h3>\n <p>Tusche, Papier <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/levalet\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=6\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>The paintings of Charles Leval, aka Levalet, are all about the human form and the various ways it interacts with its surroundings. In terms of composition, his ideas are very similar to those of stencil artists such as Banksy or Blek le Rat. But they contain less social commentary and therefore seem more playful. Where Levalet differs considerably from such figures is in the fact that he is not a stencil artist. His highly realistic black and white figures have all been applied to paper by hand, and then pasted onto surfaces. This meticulous manual aspect sets his works apart in the crowded world of street art. <em>Le retour du refoul\u00e9<\/em> (The Return of the Repressed<em>)<\/em> is both the title of Levalet\u2019s in situ work at the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks World Cultural Heritage Site, and a psychoanalytical term coined by Sigmund Freud.

Fascinated by the diversity of Morocco, as well as by the pride and joie de vivre of the country's inhabitants in the face of the oft-harsh living conditions, Beikirch set himself the goal of recording the special aura of the people he has met on the roads of the remote interior and in the mountain villages. With his portraits, he preserves the memory of the people and the handicrafts they practice, which are based on a wealth of knowledge that has been passed down for generations\u2014but which, in this modern world, could soon all be a thing of the past. Beikirch initially produced his portraits in conventional format on canvas during an artist residency at Jardin Rouge, near Marrakech. In 2015, however, he began to render them on urban walls all over the world. And thus Beikirch's tribute to the traditional potter Rakouch Timallizene, who in all probability would have otherwise remained nameless and faceless, is now to be seen at the World Heritage Site V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks.<br><br>Daniel Bauer<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":121,"title":"35 - S\u00e9bastien Preschoux","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">35<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - S\u00e9bastien Preschoux<\/span>","left":"24%","top":"37%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">35<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Guzra<\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">S\u00e9bastien Preschoux<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/2024_Urban-Art_Biennale\/Preschoux_KP_kompr__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Preschoux KP kompr\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-8104\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-8104\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Preschoux KP kompr\n \n <br>Copyright: Katja Pilisi\n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Katja Pilisi<\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>S\u00e9bastien Preschoux<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2024, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/sebastien-preschoux\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=6\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>S\u00e9bastien Preschoux, born in Chartres, has placed his installation of white and orange threads where the wagons of the suspended monorail once transported coke to the blast furnace of the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks. This juxtaposition manifests a seeming contradiction: the link between the organic-vegetable and the architectonic-technical elements of the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks. The longer the gaze follows the lines of this work \u2013which is made up of 2,800 metres of thread \u2013 the deeper it is drawn into its three-dimensional structure. To achieve such an immersive effect requires a high degree of concentration and exactitude. Using thread, Preschoux is able to construct an almost limitless array of shapes, which then appear as if they were digital forms in the analogue world.

In his time as Real Research Fellow at the Free Art and Technology Lab, for example, he supported the campaign for open licenses and fought against copyright monopolies and patents. His work <em>Dead Drops<\/em> was genuinely subversive, using publicly accessible USB drives cemented into a brick wall to provide a free, anonymous, chance infrastructure for unmonitored file-sharing. Data retention? My ass!<br>In terms of methodology and visual vocabulary, Bartholl\u2019s practice is therefore, despite all its digitality, a child of street art: icons, pictograms and pictorial jokes \u2013 key means of visual communication in both spheres \u2013 form the link between these two embattled public spaces. Bartholl uses these means to create sculptural projects \u2013 and not merely in M\u00fcnster. By taking the pins that mark a search location on a digital map, for example, or the emojis we use in messaging apps, and then placing them in real urban spaces, Bartholl references the referential nature of these small reference points. <em>This is fine<\/em>, his work for the Urban Art Biennale 2024, forms a neat cultural-historical hyperlink to the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks: a flame not only provides the inspiration for the fire emoji, signifying something very attractive and exciting, but also refers to the beginnings of the industrial age, which ultimately led to the digital systems and platforms that today seem such a natural part of our world.

Through this arduous, complex process, the Gloucestershire-born artist brings poetry back to the ruins of the profane. This approach \u2013 one that has much in common with artistic vandalism \u2013 creates beauty from destruction. As Rawlings himself explains, he is inspired by \"a sympathy for unloved and forgotten relics and a fascination with nature's resilience\". His artwork, in the form of the piece <em>Joyride<\/em>, has found an eminently suitable environment in the natural landscape garden of the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks. Here, too, nature is reconquering, to an ever-greater extent, that which was created and shaped by man. The wounds that the \"hellish\" work once tore in the former coking plant are healing again. Birch trees sprout amidst the rusted facilities, creepers entwine the massive pipes. Wild boars and foxes have also been spotted here.

However, it is not her initials that artist Yseult Digan uses, but a short form that is phonetically reminiscent of \"Eyes\", and thus also of Digan's first major street art project. Under the title \"Open your eyes\", she painted and put up posters of an oversized iconic face in silhouette on the walls of Paris. The places where these works were placed were marked on the city map and connected with lines, creating the same motif once again. Now YZ has left the bold campaign form behind and focussed on classical-looking painting. In graduated shades of grey or black to transparent, as in a charcoal drawing, she realistically transfers historical photo motifs to wrapping paper. YZ wallpapers these images in public spaces, where they begin to merge symbiotically with the wall structures.

To create his works, he makes use of the various materials concealed under the plaster; of the colours that come forth at different depths. That is to say: Vhils removes layers of material \u2013 sometimes by conventional means such as scraping and chiselling, sometimes by the more spectacular method of controlled blasting. While Vhil's wall-adorning technique may be highly unusual, the works he creates are very much in keeping with a specific graffiti style. His motifs are oversized, graphically realistic faces wearing serious expressions, portrayed either staring piercingly at or looking right through the viewer. While some of his subjects are well-known figures from contemporary history, most of them are normal everyday people. By selecting such simple, easily accessible motifs, Vhils underscores the material complexity of his pieces; the multi-layered nature of the walls into which they are etched.<br><br>Robert Kaltenh\u00e4user<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":126,"title":"40 - Ammar Abo Bakr","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">40<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Ammar Abo Bakr<\/span>","left":"10%","top":"15%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">40<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Happy Yemen <\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">Ammar Abo Bakr<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/urban-art-biennale-2022\/Ammar-Abo-Bakr__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Ammar Abo Bakr\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-3486\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-3486\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Ammar Abo Bakr\n \n <br>Copyright: Weltkulturerbe V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte \/ Hans-Georg Merkel \n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Weltkulturerbe V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte \/ Hans-Georg Merkel <\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>Ammar Abo Bakr<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2015, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Dimensions<\/h3>\n <p>3 x 1,6 m <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Material<\/h3>\n <p>Spr\u00fchfarbe, Tinte, Papier <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/ammar-abo-bakr\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=6\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>It's not unusual today for art to travel from the streets into the galleries. But very few artists travel in the opposite direction. Ammar Abo Bakr studied art in Luxor. As the Egyptian revolution 2011 on Tahrir Square took its course, Abo Bakr \u2013 whose motto is \"If you make art, make it public, so that it's close to people's hearts\" \u2013 took his art outside. Graffiti soon became the art of resistance in Egypt. Its motifs included street fighters and portraits of martyrs, but also poetic allegories of hope. These images derived their significance from their existence, their real presence, at the scenes of unrest, and they became an integral part of the events that followed.<br>In the Paradise of the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks World Heritage Site, Ammar Abo Bakr created the work Happy Yemen in 2015. He was reacting to the military intervention in Yemen of an Arab alliance under the leadership of Saudi Arabia and with Egypt\u2019s participation only a few days earlier. The work was based on a press photo of a little girl who died in this military action.<\/p><p>Robert Kaltenh\u00e4user<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":127,"title":"41 - Benjamin Duquenne","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">41<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Benjamin Duquenne<\/span>","left":"7%","top":"14%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">41<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Regenera <\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">Benjamin Duquenne<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/2024_Urban-Art_Biennale\/Benjamin_Duquenne_REGENERA_BD__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Benjamin Duquenne REGENERA BD\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-8642\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-8642\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Benjamin Duquenne REGENERA BD\n \n <br>Copyright: ADAGP, Paris, 2024\n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>ADAGP, Paris, 2024<\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>Benjamin Duquenne<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2024, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/benjamin-duquenne\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=6\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>Angkor Wat \u2013 here, in V\u00f6lklingen?

Its mission is to clean the air, no less \u2013 and, with the aid of its roots, to free the soil from decontamination and thereby make it habitable, once again, for other species.

Flora and fauna have long since retaken their terrain: a large feline predator lies in wait for visitors in the preserve of the black fish, which is said to have been spotted here in the former tar basin. The panther is by the Parisian artist Mosko, who is known for unexpectedly confronting city inhabitants, ensconced within their familiar urban habitat, with creatures of the wild: A leopard creeps through a side street, a giraffe stretches its neck up toward a first-floor window, a group of frisky zebras frolic next to the metro stairs. On second glance, we recognize that these exotic animals are in fact graffiti art, created using the stenciled style known as pochoir in France. Painstakingly created in vibrant colors, the animals are highly realistic representations of their real-life role models.

Around the turn of the millennium, he turned his focus to working on canvas in the studio. He attaches great importance, as a writer, to being an artist, and, as an artist, to being a writer. Sometimes the link between the contrasts is self-evident, and a dripping, fully inscribed canvas transmogrifies into a work of Abstract Expressionism. But that is less wizardry than the adroit excavation of subliminal, forever inherent similarities. When creating his works, Tanc abandons himself fully to the creative situation, absorbing vibrations and acting as their seismograph\u2014spontaneity and emotion paired with abstraction and fragmentation determine his style. For the Urban Art Biennale in 2017, Tanc transfigured a wall at V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte with the in-situ work, <em>V\u00f6lklingen Sunrise<\/em>, in which he captured his morning mood during a visit to the industrial city.<br><br>Robert Kaltenh\u00e4user<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":130,"title":"44 - High On Type","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">44<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - High On Type<\/span>","left":"5%","top":"26%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">44<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>The Shrine of Oblivion <\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">High On Type<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/2024_Urban-Art_Biennale\/High-on-Type_KHV_kompr__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"High on Type KHV kompr\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-8208\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-8208\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">High on Type KHV kompr\n \n <br>Copyright: Karl Heinrich Veith \n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Karl Heinrich Veith <\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>High On Type<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/high-on-type\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=6\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>The five Dutch artists Guido de Boer, Hans Schuttenbeld, Ivo Brouwer, Julien Priez and Vincent de Boer are all high on type. Naturally, their path to letter design came via the largest global typography-based art movement: graffiti. Not untypically for Dutch creatives who make the move from graffiti to other art forms, they then became increasingly specialised and proficient in their use of modern graphics and design styles.<br> While the basic scaffold of their practice remains the letter \u2013 or, at least, fragments thereof \u2013 High on Type have progressively, and transgressively, expanded their use of artistic media in all directions. This may involve lettering that sprawls across floors, walls and ceilings; lettering that is enacted in a live performance and then immediately overwritten, blurred or erased; or calligraphic designs that are transmuted into abstractions and then unfolded into an installation.<br> For this year\u2019s Urban Art Biennale, High on Type have transformed a room tucked away in the former coking plant of the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks.

He is now represented at galleries from L.A. to Zurich and describes his works as \"visual puzzles\". Back in the 1990s, he collaborated with several Paris-based street art collectives, including \"Force Alphab\u00e9tique\" and \"9\u00e8me concept\". Mambo's earlier works, such as his <em>Brainology<\/em> series, were highly influenced by graffiti style, featuring outlined, moving elements intertwined to create typelike structures and wall-filling patterns. He continued this series with his work at the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks World Cultural Heritage Site in 2019.

The work holds special significance for the artist, as his great-grandfather built brick chimneys for factories in France over 150 years ago.

Indeed, the concept of letting your mind wander is what gave rise to the trio's name (Mentalgassi translates as mental walkies). Mentalgassi's friendship goes back to when they were all graffiti writers. When a brush with the law cut short their spraypainting careers, they began to rethink their approach and pursue new ways of living out their creativity. The products of this change of course can today be found stuck to all types of street furniture, including bottle banks, lampposts and railings. Mentalgassi regularly incorporate elements of political activism into their works, most recently in pictorial shows of solidarity with Fatima Hussein Badi, victim of the Yemeni justice system, and with well-known Russian dissenters Pussy Riot. They showed their humorous side in 2019 when they pasted grimacing faces of members of the World Heritage team on the industrial architecture of the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks.<br><br>Robert Kaltenh\u00e4user<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":134,"title":"49 - Codex Urbanus","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">49<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Codex Urbanus<\/span>","left":"17%","top":"55%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">49<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Fig 574: Chimera Volklingensis<\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\"> Codex Urbanus<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/urban-art-biennale-2022\/Codex-Urbanus-Fig-574_II__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Codex Urbanus Fig 574 II\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-3962\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-3962\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Codex Urbanus Fig 574 II\n \n <br>Copyright: Weltkulturerbe V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte \/ Karl Heinrich Veith \n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Weltkulturerbe V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte \/ Karl Heinrich Veith <\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p> Codex Urbanus<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2022, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Material<\/h3>\n <p>Kreide <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/codex-urbanus\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=6\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>In the case Codex Urbanus, the artist\u2019s name and the work are one. Bored with his respectable career, the rock fan Antoine Techenet, born in Paris in 1974 as the son of a pharmacist, began to draw strange beasts. By combining the animals known to science, Codex Urbanus has been creating new species. Because animals need a habitat, he began to let his creatures run wild: on the walls of Montmartre, which has long since been famous as a biotope for beings from the demimonde. Thanks to his good bourgeois education, initially he hesitated to apply the creatures directly as graffiti. He first drew them on ceramic plaques that he then applied. Later, however, he switched to drawing directly on the wall with paints and markers. When the \u201calchemic vandal\u201d releases his creature, he\u2014always the discoverer\u2014gives them an appropriate Latin name. Hence we encounter <em>Suricatta Sepian\u00e6<\/em>, the cuttlefish-meerkat, and <em>Mamothos Araneus<\/em>, a hybrid of mammoth and spider. <br>How do the native creatures react to these invasive species?

Graffiti writing, with its sweeping constructed pieces, overlapping elements and flourishes can even be classed as a form of this decorative handwriting. Graffiti veteran Nils Meulmann coined the term \"Calligraffiti\" to refer to the hybrid style combining graffiti and calligraphy. Artists with close connections to Persian or Arab traditions seem to have a particular affinity with this artistic writing style. Moroccanborn Parisian Tarek Benaoum \u2013 a former graffiti writer \u2013 is one such artist. Benaoum began experimenting with artistic writing at the age of 14, initially under the alias \"Clone\". Even back in the early stages of his artistic career, Benaoum would often incorporate Gothic script into his pieces. Derived from medieval handwriting styles, Gothic script has a clear connection with calligraphy. Today, this style still serves as a continuous, consistent source of inspiration for Benaoum's art. To achieve his highly decorative look, Benaoum incorporates metallic colors such as gold and silver. An homage to the streets, perhaps.<\/p><p>Robert Kaltenh\u00e4user<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":136,"title":"51 - OX","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">51<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - OX<\/span>","left":"26%","top":"62%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">51<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Obus gothique<\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\"> OX<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/2024_Urban-Art_Biennale\/OX_KHV_kompr__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"OX KHV kompr\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-8178\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-8178\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">OX KHV kompr\n \n <br>Copyright: Karl Heinrich Veith \n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Karl Heinrich Veith <\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p> OX<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2024, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Dimensions<\/h3>\n <p>5 x 6 m <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Material<\/h3>\n <p>Holz, Acrylfarbe <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/ox\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=6\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>OX\u2019s artistic work revolves mainly around advertising hoardings, which the Frenchman has been refashioning, without permission, since the 1980s.

In his Amsterdam studio, he consciously accepts the loss of control when working. In terms of method, this is done, for example, through the consumption of intoxicating amounts of absinthe or painting blindfolded; in terms of content, through his oft grotesquely coarse party scenes which resonate with a good portion of social criticism as well as life on the edge \u00e0 la 1920s' Berlin\u2014Otto Dix and George Grosz say hello! Eilers's approach engenders his works with a vitality that is otherwise difficult to attain. That here and there facial features slip, or that on occasion a hand does not exactly stay where it belongs, is without doubt advantageous to a ballroom scene. The approach taken by the artist to the mural format on the fa\u00e7ade at the Handwerkergasse entrance to the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks is that of a large-scale, gestural drawing in black on red\u2014with an unfettered line and a graphically effective placement of flat surfaces.

If this combination sounds familiar to you, you are already on the right track: Rietbergen's early roots in graffiti remain resonant. His work takes up the principle of artisanal creation of insignia in the street context: the oversized, at times aggressive typographic forms exercise an alienating effect in the urban space\u2014a quality that can hardly be achieved with typography on the screen or in print formats. His focus therein is no longer only on simple marking and presence through quantity, which he achieved as a teenager with tags, but on characters as a formal discipline. Rietbergen's symbols are largely isolated from semantics, focusing instead on the visual dialogue with the given spatial and social urban setting. Rietbergen has mounted his work Unseen, consisting of massive black letters from his bar-based typographic system <em>Rosdar<\/em>, on the gray garage doors under the turnout track. That which is suggestive of kanji writing by Frank Stella\u2014placed in an industrial structural setting like his classic pieces\u2014is also part of a specific graffiti tradition of the Netherlands, which is famous for its design culture: modernist-inspired, continued development of the written typeface.<br><br>Robert Kaltenh\u00e4user<br><br>Note: Roadsworth's \"Defund the War Machine\" is on the roof of the mixing room.

SpY's installation CCTV, created that same year for the Urban Art Biennale, appears to hail from a dystopia. Big Brother is watching you! The overwhelming quantity of fake surveillance cameras seems exaggerated, but the question does arise as to whether the public video surveillance of today has not long since assumed similarly alarming proportions\u2014albeit less blatantly obvious.

Here, on the Zimmerplatz, visitors to the World Heritage Site can take a break for refreshment or round off their visit with a cool drink in a relaxed atmosphere.

Brightly coloured and exuberant, they contrast not only with the rusty ironworks but also with the global situation in 2024. While some of us may not have made full use of life\u2019s palette in recent years and opted for more-sombre colours, Poiesz invites us to take a break from our worries. Better then not to think about how long it will take before real palm trees are growing in V\u00f6lklingen due to climate change...<\/p><p>Daniel Bauer<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":144,"title":"59 - Studierende der Ecole Nationale Sup\u00e9rieure d'Architecture de Strasbourg (ENSAS) ","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">59<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Studierende der Ecole Nationale Sup\u00e9rieure d'Architecture de Strasbourg (ENSAS) <\/span>","left":"66%","top":"71%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">59<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Entit\u00e9s naturelles <\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">Studierende der Ecole Nationale Sup\u00e9rieure d'Architecture de Strasbourg (ENSAS) <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/2024_Urban-Art_Biennale\/ENSAS_54_Kompr-v2__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"ENSAS 54 Kompr v2\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-8545\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-8545\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">ENSAS 54 Kompr v2\n \n <br>Copyright: Karl Heinrich Veith \n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Karl Heinrich Veith <\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>Studierende der Ecole Nationale Sup\u00e9rieure d'Architecture de Strasbourg (ENSAS) <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2024, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=6\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>Artists and lecturers Arzhel Prioul and Mathieu Tremblin staged a workshop with 36 students from the \u00c9cole Nationale Sup\u00e9rieure d'Architecture de Strasbourg (ENSAS). Their subject was the artistic use of urban billposting, with the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks providing an allegory of a world after the withdrawal from fossil fuels. The workshop posed the following questions: What future might be envisaged for a post-industrial wasteland and ruin? And: Which useful ecosystems can be hosted by a UNESCO World Heritage Site?<br>The first workshop group developed a display on the subject of the \u201celectrical circuit\u201d. In five short stories, this offers different perspectives on the same place, provided by five \u201cnatural entities\u201d: wind, fire, water, a bird and a tree. Each of these stories is like a narrative layer overlaying the previous one. And each of them narrates experience in three tenses \u2013 past, present and future \u2013 the aim being to lose track of time while reading.<\/p><p>Jeanette Dittmar<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"}]},{"id":8,"title":"Cityparcours","image":"\/assets\/plaene\/urban-art-2024\/rz_lageplan_mediaguide_urbanart_2024_stadtparcours_komplett.jpg","aspectRatio":{"height":2000,"width":2000},"markers":[{"marker":{"id":89,"title":"60 - Mathieu Tremblin","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">60<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Mathieu Tremblin<\/span>","left":"46%","top":"51%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">60<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Die Gesellschaft der Stadtwanderer <\/h1>\n <h2 class=\"exhibit-meta-info\">Voelklinger Chronicles #2 \u201eIndustrial Music\u201c<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">Mathieu Tremblin<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/2024_Urban-Art_Biennale\/Mathieu_Tremblin_Music_kompr_KHV__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Mathieu Tremblin Music kompr KHV\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-8546\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-8546\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Mathieu Tremblin Music kompr KHV\n \n <br>Copyright: Karl Heinrich Veith \n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Karl Heinrich Veith <\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>Mathieu Tremblin<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2024, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/mathieu-tremblin\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=8\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>Strasbourg artist Mathieu Tremblin is the driving force behind the Gesellschaft der Stadtwanderer (Company of Urban Wanderers), a collective specially established for the Urban Art Biennale 2024. He spent a number of weeks collecting anecdotes from V\u00f6lklingen residents, which he then fleshed out into a fairytale\/legend-like narrative of V\u00f6lklingen history. To enable the people of V\u00f6lklingen to contribute, posters throughout the city published Tremblin\u2019s contact details in advance. Poetic distillations of these anecdotes can now be found posted on walls across the World Heritage Site and in the city of V\u00f6lklingen. As Tremblin explains, the project met with an enthusiastic response: \u201cRight away, people were interested in talking to us. They wanted to find out what we were doing. For me, that\u2019s the sign of a healthy city. If the place genuinely belongs to the people, they appreciate it when someone brings them something, as with our interventions.\u201d Without doubt, the core of this work is its local content, which has made memories, moments, feelings and moods merge into an urban myth with a character all of its own.<\/p><p>Daniel Bauer <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":91,"title":"61 - Wanderlust Social Club","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">61<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Wanderlust Social Club<\/span>","left":"50.25%","top":"47.25%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">61<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Die Gesellschaft der Stadtwanderer <\/h1>\n <h2 class=\"exhibit-meta-info\">Minimuralism \u201eGruppenportrait\u201c<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">Wanderlust Social Club<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/2024_Urban-Art_Biennale\/Wanderlust_Gruppenportrait_Mathieu-Tremblin_kompr__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Wanderlust Gruppenportrait Mathieu Tremblin kompr\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-8127\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-8127\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Wanderlust Gruppenportrait Mathieu Tremblin kompr\n \n <br>Copyright: Mathieu Tremblin\n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Mathieu Tremblin<\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>Wanderlust Social Club<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2024, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/wanderlust-social-club\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=8\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>It takes a keen eye to spot the miniature paintings created by the Wanderlust Social Club, a group made up of Li\u00e8ge artist Mary Limonade and her colleague Jiem from Nantes. The works produced in the city of V\u00f6lklingen for the Urban Art Biennale 2024 are typical of the self-taught duo: an exploration of urban space that takes subjects and situations specific to the location and transforms them into distinctive mini murals. One of these, painted on an electrical cabinet near the bus stop on V\u00f6lklinger Platz, captures the fleeting moments that occur here every day when, for example, people pass one another on their way to work and back again. Since the early days of the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks, this route to and from the railway station has witnessed many such encounters. In the heyday of the ironworks, thousands of people would be on the move at shift changes. The figures depicted in the mini mural are based on artists who formed the Gesellschaft der Stadtwanderer (Company of Urban Wanderers) as part of the Biennale and also on local graffiti sprayers \u2013 a <em>Gruppenportr\u00e4t<\/em> (Group Portrait), so to speak. <br><br>Daniel Bauer<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":92,"title":"62 - Jaune","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">62<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Jaune<\/span>","left":"47%","top":"48%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">62<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Kunstfabrik <\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\"> Jaune<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/urban-art-biennale-2022\/Kunstfabrik_Oliver_Dietze__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Kunstfabrik Oliver Dietze\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-3839\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-3839\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Kunstfabrik Oliver Dietze\n \n <br>Copyright: Weltkulturerbe V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte \/ Oliver Dietze\n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Weltkulturerbe V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte \/ Oliver Dietze<\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p> Jaune<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2022, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Dimensions<\/h3>\n <p>3,1 x 15 m <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Material<\/h3>\n <p>Acrylfarbe <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/jaune\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=8\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>The Belgian Jaune has become known for his stencil works of miniature garbage men in urban spaces. They are often overlooked, despite the signal colors of their work clothes, much like the real-life city cleaners among whom the artist himself once belonged. Jaune\u2019s attention to detail is evident in his site-specific work, <em>Kunstfabrik<\/em> (Art Factory), created especially for the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks and affixed to the outer wall of the square. The titular lettering consists of pipes and vents of the kind that the Ironworks has in abundance, populated by Jaune\u2019s typical figures \u2013 at first glance, anyway. For in this context, the garbage men become smelter men, marked by their work clothes in gray and orange, like those worn by today\u2019s workers at Saarstahl. <em>Kunstfabrik<\/em> clearly refers to the industrial past of the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks, but also to its present role as a hotspot for art and culture \u2013 a symbol of structural change. If you keep your eyes open, you will encounter more miniature workers at the V\u00f6lklingen train station \u2013 this time identifiable with yellow and orange outfits as members of the city cleaning service.<br><br>Daniel Bauer<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":93,"title":"63 - Lek & Sowat","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">63<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Lek & Sowat<\/span>","left":"51.5%","top":"44%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">63<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>May the Bridges I burn light the Way<\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\"> Lek & Sowat<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/urban-art-biennale-2022\/Lek_Sowat-Unterfuehrung_einfahrt__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Lek Sowat Unterfuehrung einfahrt\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-3847\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-3847\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Lek Sowat Unterfuehrung einfahrt\n \n <br>Copyright: Weltkulturerbe V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte \/ Oliver Dietze\n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Weltkulturerbe V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte \/ Oliver Dietze<\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p> Lek & Sowat<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2022, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Material<\/h3>\n <p>Folie, Plexiglas<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/lek-and-sowat\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=8\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>The French duo Lek & Sowat have been working together since they met at a group exhibition in Paris in 2009. The path from subcultural graffiti \u201cbombing\u201d to conceptual intervention in public space (and back) is shorter than one might think: massive lettering along urban and peripheral traffic infrastructures, strikingly executed, originally designed. Only the content has undergone a shift: the focus is no longer on the artist\u2019s own name, but on poetic or self-reflexive reference. The lettering \u201cLEK & SOWAT, MAY THE BRIDGES I BURN LIGHT THE WAY, 2022, V\u00d6LKLINGEN\u201d is emblazoned with foil and acrylic on the glass partition wall along the underpass between the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks and the train station. The letters, in red and white on gray, are reminiscent of phantom images in their design, which corresponds to the social symbolism of graffiti and also makes one think of urban hacking. By placing work and work information in one medium, Lek & Sowat intend to \u201cphysically connect the museum to the city\u201d and at the same time \u201ctalk about the difficult decisions we had to make as artists.\u201d<br><br>Robert Kaltenh\u00e4user<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":94,"title":"64 - Hendrik Beikirch","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">64<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Hendrik Beikirch<\/span>","left":"53%","top":"39.5%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">64<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Kaya Urhan <\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">Hendrik Beikirch<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/urban-art-biennale-2022\/Beikirch-_Kaya-__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Beikirch Kaya \" aria-describedby=\"image-info-3504\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-3504\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Beikirch Kaya \n \n <br>Copyright: Weltkulturere V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte \/ Oliver Dietze \n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Weltkulturere V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte \/ Oliver Dietze <\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>Hendrik Beikirch<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2022, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Dimensions<\/h3>\n <p>20 x 20 m <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Material<\/h3>\n <p>Acrylfarbe <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/hendrik-beikirch\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=8\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>Hendrik Beikirch painted a 600 square metre portrait of the former smelter worker Kaya Urhan on the metal cladding of the former Saarstahl continuous casting plant on Rathausstra\u00dfe. Beikirch, who as a graffiti artist is one of the most important European pioneers in the development of today's urban mural painting, has long focussed on monumental monochrome portraits of real people. Kaya Urhan, portrayed here, came to V\u00f6lklingen from Turkey in 1971 and witnessed the last tapping at Blast Furnace III in 1986. Even as a pensioner, he has always remained an avowed V\u00f6lklinger. With the structural change, he became a contemporary witness of the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks. He filmed one of the last working days of pig iron production in 1986 himself. The World Heritage Site is now able to present this unique document online from the authentic perspective of the workers on site. \"The special character of a region is always created by the lives and actions of those who spend their lives there,\" says Hendrik Beikirch. With his portrait, he is helping to ensure that this is not so easily overlooked.<br><br>Robert Kaltenh\u00e4user<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":88,"title":"65 - Coco Bergholm","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">65<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Coco Bergholm<\/span>","left":"57%","top":"44%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">65<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Glitches<\/h1>\n <h2 class=\"exhibit-meta-info\">Die Gesellschaft der Stadtwanderer<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">Coco Bergholm<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/2024_Urban-Art_Biennale\/Coco-Bergholm_Tuer_kompr__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Coco Bergholm Tuer kompr\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-8528\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-8528\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Coco Bergholm Tuer kompr\n \n <br>Copyright: Karl Heinrich Veith \n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Karl Heinrich Veith <\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>Coco Bergholm<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2024, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/coco-bergholm\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=8\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>Only on closer inspection does the brickwork and masonry turn out to be a printed curtain that has been drawn across a wall or window niche in the city.

FC Saarbr\u00fccken have stuck to the city map in front of V\u00f6lklingen train station. Step closer, however, and it is quickly clear that the stickers are populated by tiny figures bearing the Saarbr\u00fccken colours of blue, black and yellow. Created by the Wanderlust Social Club, which teamed up with the Gesellschaft der Stadtwanderer (Urban Wanderers Society) for the Urban Art Biennale 2024, this miniature work commemorates a piece of recent history. Between 2016 and 2020, while renovation work was being carried out at the Ludwigspark Stadium in Saarbr\u00fccken, the men\u2019s first team of 1. FC Saarbr\u00fccken played their home matches at the Hermann Neuberger Stadium in V\u00f6lklingen. During this time, ultras from Saarbr\u00fccken would arrive at the station by train and then march en masse to the stadium. Countless stickers still mark their route today, recalling the period of the \u201cV\u00f6lklingen diaspora\u201d, when high-ranking teams such as Bayer Leverkusen and Fortuna D\u00fcsseldorf also visited V\u00f6lklingen for the 2019\/2020 cup competition.

This piece of slag plays a crucial role in the mural created for the Urban Art Biennale 2024. It structures the surrounding sedimentary layers \u2013 which have the colours of their urban environment \u2013 and tilts a sedimentary block upwards like a sharp blade. For Ipin, this signifies the reconstruction \u2013 through art and culture \u2013 of the scarred coal and steel town of V\u00f6lklingen. This breaks with his characteristic artistic practice, which typically adopts a dystopian perspective. On a further level of interpretation, the mural shows that a town that grew from coal, iron and steel has had to deal not only with the economic impact of deindustrialisation but also with physical repercussions: the V\u00f6lklingen district of F\u00fcrstenhausen was badly hit by the tremors induced by mining activity that hastened the end of Saarland\u2019s coal industry in 2012. According to Ipin, art can be a means to structural transformation, but it must always remain as uncomfortable as \u201ca small stone in your shoe\u201d.<br><br>Daniel Bauer<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":100,"title":"71 - Frukty ","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">71<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Frukty <\/span>","left":"77%","top":"24%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">71<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Bilder-W\u00f6rterbuch <\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">Frukty <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/urban-art-biennale-2022\/Frukty-Hauswand-dramatisch__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Frukty Hauswand dramatisch\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-3919\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-3919\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Frukty Hauswand dramatisch\n \n <br>Copyright: Weltkulturerbe V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte \/ Karl Heinrich Veith \n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Weltkulturerbe V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte \/ Karl Heinrich Veith <\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>Frukty <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2022, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Dimensions<\/h3>\n <p>7 x 8 m <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Material<\/h3>\n <p>Acrylfarbe, Spr\u00fchlack<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=8\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>During their research tours of the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks, the Russian artists' collective Frukty came across a booklet from the early 1940s in the R\u00f6chling exhibition that literally has it all. The title reads: \"Picture dictionary for communication without language skills\". Underneath is the note: \"Trilingual edition: German-Russian-Ukrainian-Polish\". This is a contemporary document of the German occupation in Eastern Europe during the Second World War, which was used at the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks to communicate with the forced labourers. In the centre of V\u00f6lklingen, Frukty discovered a windowless house wall with a peeling fa\u00e7ade, which seemed ideal for their work and which could be secured after discussions with the owner. The \"picture dictionary\" can now be found on the wall of the house, enlarged to gigantic proportions as a damaged trace of memory - with numerous missing parts, as if it had been there for decades but was still legible. Frukty's in-situ work brings a special piece of world history that took place in this region into the urban space and bears witness to a time when Russians, Ukrainians and Poles were victims together - namely of our ancestors in Germany.<br>The work is located in the street \"Am H\u00fcttenwerk\" in V\u00f6lklingen.<br><br>Ralf Beil<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":101,"title":"72 - THWRB3AT","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">72<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - THWRB3AT<\/span>","left":"27.5%","top":"60%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">72<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Ohne Titel <\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">THWRB3AT<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/2024_Urban-Art_Biennale\/THWRB3AT_kompr__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"THWRB3AT kompr\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-8105\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-8105\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">THWRB3AT kompr\n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>THWRB3AT<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2024, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Dimensions<\/h3>\n <p>4 x 20 m <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Material<\/h3>\n <p>Acrylfarbe <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/thwrb3at\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=8\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>For modern graffiti, rail-track landscapes are the iconic landscapes of the soul: junctions, sidings, marshalling yards \u2013 places of ritual with their own aura. This is where historical myth and present-day practice meet up: the tracks upon which rail wagons move, come to rest, are marshalled; and the tracks that are left on these wagons themselves. French artist THWRB3AT works with a modular system to create line drawings that are inspired by these infrastructures. Part abstraction, part technical drawing, they recall \u2013 not by chance \u2013 the control panels of a signal box. In V\u00f6lklingen, even the heavenwards-striving pipework of the former ironworks seems to mirror these archetypal forms. This relation to the steel plant demonstrates a profound reflection: if industrial modernity remains inconceivable without the railroad, so too does the rail network without the steel industry. By the same token, modern subway graffiti was born on the back of rail vehicles. THWRB3AT brings it back to the reason for its existence in a contemporary, minimalist-conceptual variant of this idea.<br><br>Robert Kaltenh\u00e4user<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":102,"title":"73 - Ian Strange","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">73<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Ian Strange<\/span>","left":"2%","top":"61%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">73<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>49.256180,6.824125<\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">Ian Strange<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/2024_Urban-Art_Biennale\/Ian-Strange-Meisterhaeuser-NEU_KHV_kompr__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Ian Strange Meisterhaeuser NEU KHV kompr\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-8549\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-8549\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Ian Strange Meisterhaeuser NEU KHV kompr\n \n <br>Copyright: Karl Heinrich Veith \n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Karl Heinrich Veith <\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>Ian Strange<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2024, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/ian-strange\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=8\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>The place behind the geographic coordinates of 49.256180,6.824125 forms the centrepiece of Australian artist Ian Strange\u2019s photographic work for the Urban Art Biennale 2024: the slag heaps of the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks, also known as the Hostenbach Alps. These huge, man-made mounds bear witness to the enormous amount of energy liberated during the smelting process. Strange has made this energy part of the creation process, using fireworks to illuminate and photograph the slag heaps at night. This casts them in an ambivalent light, at once joyful and celebratory, but also dangerously explosive. A further layer of meaning is lent by the exhibition location itself: the panoramic shot not only hangs in the burden shed but has also been mounted in front of one of the historic foremen\u2019s houses that were built in 1905\/06 for senior employees of the ironworks on the far bank of the River Saar in Wehrden.

Yet for the Parisian artist, <em>Marx<\/em> \u2013 which he created together with David Marin \u2013 is first and foremost a satire on the exaggerations and exaltations of capitalism, which turns cheap, mass-produced goods into extremely desirable cult objects. Made from the \u201cblack gold\u201d of crude oil, plastic is convenient for producers and consumers alike. And, despite being harmful to the environment, it continues to play a key role in today\u2019s consumer society. Yet aren\u2019t such a lifestyle and economy simply a luxury with destructive consequences? And will the time come when plastic becomes so rare that it will be prized like a precious relic in the showcase of a museum? Presenting <em>Marx<\/em> within the World Heritage Site V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte also unleashes a long chain of associations. After all, didn\u2019t the R\u00f6chling family of ironworkers once turn to plastics as a new field of business following their retreat from coal and steel? And haven\u2019t, in the past, major cultural and historical exhibitions at the World Heritage Site thematised the fascination with gold and the devotional significance attached to gold objects \u2013 by, for example, the Ancient Egyptians, the Celts and the Incas? The work is typical of Debombourg in as much as his art, which also includes grandiose, immersive works, is often based on everyday materials and objects.<br><br>Daniel Bauer<\/p><p> <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":165,"title":"12 - Mardi Noir","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">12<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Mardi Noir<\/span>","left":"86%","top":"53%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">12<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Finger weg!<\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">Mardi Noir<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/2024_Urban-Art_Biennale\/Mardi_Noir_Hand_Moellerh__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Mardi Noir Hand Moellerh\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-8524\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-8524\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Mardi Noir Hand Moellerh\n \n <br>Copyright: Karl Heinrich Veith \n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Karl Heinrich Veith <\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>Mardi Noir<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2024, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/mardi-noir\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=7\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>The artistic signature of Arzhel Prioul, alias Mardi Noir, is easily identifiable in <em>Finger weg!<\/em> The French street artist uses the symbolic language of pictograms, removing them from their usual, rational context, enlarging them to reveal their composition of individual colour pixels, and placing them in unusual locations.

The London artist, who has also experimented with skull motifs, alphabet pasta and stencil graffiti, makes biggest use of the symbols of a white rabbit (\u201cFollow!\u201d) and a tie-wearing figure with a TV head (\u201cConsume!\u201d) \u2013 both are well-known figures of protest graphics. These are flanked by slogans in headline style: \u201cBuy the illusion\u201d, \u201cForget you ever saw me\u201d.<br>Sometimes, he uses his own posters like a construction kit, combining them to create collaged compositions. In any event, the desired effect is presaged by the artist\u2019s own name. Ironically, the provocative, often anti-capitalist posters are also available as art prints. But who ever claimed there was a right life in the wrong one? Yet there certainly is one in the tradition of John Heartfield and Barbara Kruger.<br>And so it is that Benjamin Irritant mixes paste and wallpapers his surroundings \u2013 so that more collages can emerge from collages.<br><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; color: black;\"><br>Robert Kaltenh\u00e4user<br><\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":163,"title":"14 - Vladimir Turner","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">14<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Vladimir Turner<\/span>","left":"79%","top":"55%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">14<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Dead Man <\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">Vladimir Turner<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/Vladimir-Turner_-Dead-Man__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Vladimir Turner Dead Man\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-8526\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-8526\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Vladimir Turner Dead Man\n \n <br>Copyright: Vladimir Turner\n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Vladimir Turner<\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>Vladimir Turner<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2019 <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Dimensions<\/h3>\n <p>3:29 Min.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Material<\/h3>\n <p>Videoperformance <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/vladimir-turner\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=7\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>In the video performance <em>Dead Man<\/em>, urban artist and activist Vladimir Turner enacts a striking ritual in an abandoned coal mine in Bytom, one of the most polluted places in Poland.

To boost growth, brands literally force their way into the immediate vicinity of consumers. Whether urban or rural, our surroundings are plastered with advertising and logos that often are visible for miles around. With the <em>Images de marques<\/em> project, Parisian artist Lor-K has taken ubiquitous logos and brand names to places where large corporations are in part responsible for the rubbish left there. In the debate around sustainable living, it is often the consumer who is held responsible, the message being that less consumption equals less waste. Here, however, the artist takes direct aim at the brands themselves and highlights who is really accountable. In a radius of 30 kilometres around the World Heritage Site V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte, LOR-K has sought out brand logos and areas full of rubbish in order to create in situ installations. She has barely altered the piles of trash she found there, labelling them merely with the brand logos of the \u201cperpetrators\u201d. <br><br>Katja Pilisi<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":150,"title":"16","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">16<\/span>","left":"71%","top":"50%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">16<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>My Landscape<\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/2024_Urban-Art_Biennale\/Roelse_1_kompr__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Roelse 1 kompr\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-8107\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-8107\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Roelse 1 kompr\n \n <br>Copyright: Karl Heinrich Veith \n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Karl Heinrich Veith <\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2024, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=7\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>Ralph Roelse is known \u2013 or still far too unknown \u2013 for his extremely minimalist, wilful and challenging works of abstract painting. He regularly places these without permission in open \u2013 if often not exactly public \u2013 spaces. \u201cThe work benefits from this illegal edge,\u201d he says. Crossing a bridge in a typical industrial area of Eindhoven, for example, you might be unaware that right beneath you is a conceptual mural worthy of a museum. Similarly, some of the freight wagons being shunted through the shipping terminals of the Benelux countries carry his finely composed free forms or his experimental geometries on their steely surfaces. In parallel, Roelse produces no less profound studio art. For him, the two practices are not separate but rather influence one another. Photography also plays a key role in the creative process. Painting outdoors is not an isolated activity but rather part of an entire post-industrial landscape. Conversely, a studio work can be transposed in such a way that \u2013 similar to the graffiti works \u2013 it transforms space as a piece of urban land art. Likewise, the staging of the gaze and the question of documentary-artistic transport are both always part of the work.<\/p><p>Robert Kaltenh\u00e4user<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":149,"title":"17 - Ian Strange","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">17<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Ian Strange<\/span>","left":"66%","top":"53%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">17<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>49.256180,6.824125<\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">Ian Strange<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/2024_Urban-Art_Biennale\/Ian-Strange_KHV_kompr__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Ian Strange KHV kompr\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-8540\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-8540\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Ian Strange KHV kompr\n \n <br>Copyright: Karl Heinrich Veith \n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Karl Heinrich Veith <\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>Ian Strange<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2024, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/ian-strange\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=7\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>The place behind the geographic coordinates of 49.256180,6.824125 forms the centrepiece of Australian artist Ian Strange\u2019s photographic work for the Urban Art Biennale 2024: the slag heaps of the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks, also known as the Hostenbach Alps. These huge, man-made mounds bear witness to the enormous amount of energy liberated during the smelting process. Strange has made this energy part of the creation process, using fireworks to illuminate and photograph the slag heaps at night. This casts them in an ambivalent light, at once joyful and celebratory, but also dangerously explosive. A further layer of meaning is lent by the exhibition location itself: the panoramic shot not only hangs in the burden shed but has also been mounted in front of one of the historic foremen\u2019s houses that were built in 1905\/06 for senior employees of the ironworks on the far bank of the River Saar in Wehrden.

Not as an artist, mind you, but rather as the curator of a fan account on social media. He was responsible for coining the term \u201cpost-vandalism\u201d \u2013 which was \u201clong overdue\u201d, according to critic Larissa Kikol \u2013 and under this rubric presents works at the border between street aesthetics and canonical art. The focus here is less on the crossover per se but rather on the aestheticisation of the circumstances and implications of such works. Anyone who has ever wondered why some walls, following the removal of graffiti, look like a Mark Rothko painting is already pretty close here. As a career move, this was both ingenious and dangerous \u2013 since Burke himself, of course, produces precisely this style of art. <br>His work <em>Galv Fountain<\/em> takes visual and formal cues from a weeping willow. The work is conceived as a \u201cvisual commentary on the complex power dynamics in public spaces and the role of architecture in shaping and controlling these environments\u201d. Mechanisms of defence and control such as metal spikes on fences or on surfaces where people might sit are a physical expression of how the logic of exploitation inherent to our \u201calternative-free\u201d social system tries to select between those who may, or may not, be present in public spaces: pigeon spikes against \u201cuseless\u201d people. This hostile architecture provides Burke with rich material.<br><br>Robert Kaltenh\u00e4user<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":152,"title":"19 - Alksko","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">19<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Alksko<\/span>","left":"55%","top":"53%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">19<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Mixed Memory<\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">Alksko<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/2024_Urban-Art_Biennale\/Alksko_KHV_kompr__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Alksko KHV kompr\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-8541\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-8541\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Alksko KHV kompr\n \n <br>Copyright: Karl Heinrich Veith \n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Karl Heinrich Veith <\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>Alksko<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2024, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/alksko\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=7\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p> <\/p><p>Als der ukrainische K\u00fcnstler Alexey Kondakov alias Alksko zum ersten Mal die V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte und ihr Umland sah, kam ihm der Anblick sehr vertraut vor. Wenig verwunderlich, denn er stammt aus der Industriestadt Donezk im Donbass, wo er als Schuljunge die Halden des \u00f6rtlichen H\u00fcttenwerkes erkundete. Vor dem russischen \u00dcberfall auf die Ukraine verbrachte er zudem viele Sommer an der K\u00fcste nahe des riesigen Stahlwerks von Mariupol, das 2022 durch die wochenlange Belagerung der Russen international traurige Ber\u00fchmtheit erlangte.

Their three-dimensional installations incorporate original train and subway parts, such as doors and windows, as well as PVC tarpaulins from freight trains. The work <em>Ewige Wiederkehr<\/em> (eternal return) tells of the continuously recurring cycle of action and reaction \u2013 of the production and removal of graffiti in public spaces. While the graffiti in the background only remains visible in the grouting of the tiled wall, the fragments of an \u201cincoming\u201d Hamburg subway train are already bringing new graffiti with them. Two of the works on show feature the sliding steel-and-tarpaulin roofs of the special freight wagons known in railroad jargon as Shimms: on the one hand, a collage of cut-outs from painted tarpaulins; and, on the other, a snapshot of a painted tarpaulin folded into pleats, just as it would appear in real life when the roof is slid back for loading and unloading the wagon. Crucial for Moses & Taps is not so much <em>what<\/em> is written, but rather <em>that<\/em> something is written.<\/p><p>Daniel Bauer<\/p><p><img src=\"\/public\/assets\/ausstellungen\/2024\/Urban-Art-Biennale-2024\/MosesTaps_SHIMMS-XXIX_KHV_kompr__ResizedImageWzYwMCw0MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" class=\"leftAlone ss-htmleditorfield-file image\">SHIMMS XXIX <br>Spr\u00fchlack, G\u00fcterzugplane <br>ca. 2 x 2 m <br>(Format im Ursprungszustand 2 x 7,50 m)<br><br><\/p><p><img src=\"\/public\/assets\/ausstellungen\/2024\/Urban-Art-Biennale-2024\/MosesTaps_SHIMMS-FLICKWERK-XIX_KHV_kompr__ResizedImageWzYwMCw0MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" class=\"leftAlone ss-htmleditorfield-file image\">SHIMMS FLICKWERK XIX <br>2020<br>Spr\u00fchlack, G\u00fcterzugplane <br>ca. 1,60 x 2,6 m<br><br><br><img src=\"\/public\/assets\/ausstellungen\/2024\/Urban-Art-Biennale-2024\/MosesTaps_Ewige-Wiederkehr_KHV_kompr__ResizedImageWzYwMCw0MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" class=\"leftAlone ss-htmleditorfield-file image\">Ewige Wiederkehr <br>2018<br>Spr\u00fchlack, U-Bahnteile, Kachelwand <br>ca. 2 x 2 x 0,5 m<br><br><\/p><p> <\/p><p> <\/p><p> <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":154,"title":"21 - e1000","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">21<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - e1000<\/span>","left":"42%","top":"53%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">21<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Tenemos miedo a las nubas (Wir haben Angst vor den Wolken)<\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">e1000<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/2024_Urban-Art_Biennale\/e1000_JD_kompr__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"e1000 JD kompr\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-8160\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-8160\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">e1000 JD kompr\n \n <br>Copyright: Jeanette Dittmar\n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Jeanette Dittmar<\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>e1000<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2024, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Dimensions<\/h3>\n <p>H\u00f6he 3 m<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Material<\/h3>\n <p>Stahl, Acrylfarbe <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/e1000\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=7\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>The Spanish artist e1000 has tagged his way through major European cities. Often unrecognisable at first glance, his name adorns a variety of structures in urban spaces, such as grilles, manhole covers and railings. Once identified as such, however, the artist\u2019s predominantly neon-coloured signature is to be found almost everywhere \u2013 as here, for example, on steel rebar rods that have been fashioned to convey a message. When illuminated with black light, these words become visible: \u201cTenemos miedo a las nubes\u201d (\u201cWe\u2019re scared of the clouds\u201d).<br>The work tells of the inhabitants of Samalayuca in the desert south of Ciudad Juarez, Mexico. In 1983, scrap metal contaminated with the radioactive isotope cobalt-60 from an unused radiotherapy unit was scrapped and processed into rebars, which were then used to make reinforced concrete in housebuilding. Before long, the new inhabitants of such dwellings began to complain of sickness and pain, particularly on cloudy days. A year later, when a truck transporting the contaminated rebars happened to drive past the Los Alamos National Laboratory, a radiation detector registered the presence of radioactivity. After few years later, it was discovered that the incidence of cancer at affected locations exceeded the norm by over 80 percent. And so it was that a radiotherapy unit, originally intended for treatment, ended up causing numerous cases of cancer.<\/p><p> <\/p><p> <a href=\"#_msoanchor_1\" class=\"ss-broken\">[S1]<\/a>@Redaktion. Ortsname im Original ist fehlerhaft: \"Samalayuca\" statt \"Samalayca\". Auch die Darstellung ist etwas verk\u00fcrzt und zum Teil irref\u00fchrend. Das Strahlentherapieger\u00e4t ist nicht eingeschmolzen(!) sondern verschrottet worden, wodurch Pellets von Cobalt-60 in die Umgebung des Schrottplatzes gelangt sind. Dies hat zu einer Kontaminierung von Altmetall gef\u00fchrt, das sp\u00e4ter zu Armierungseisen verarbeitet wurde. Scheinbar ist auch der Ort Samalayuca nur insofern vom Belang, dass erst sp\u00e4ter dort ein Endlager f\u00fcr das kontaminierte Material aus den nachtr\u00e4glich demolierten Geb\u00e4uden entstanden ist.<\/p><p>Jeanette Dittmar<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":155,"title":"22 - Die Gesellschaft der Stadtwanderer","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">22<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Die Gesellschaft der Stadtwanderer<\/span>","left":"32%","top":"53%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">22<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>Die Gesellschaft der Stadtwanderer<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=7\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>Artists Pascal Ansell, Coco Bergholm, Epos 257, Antonio Gallego, L\u00e9a Hussenot, Deana Kolen\u010d\u00edkov\u00e1, Corentin Seyfried, Mathieu Tremblin and the Wanderlust Social Club, consisting of Mary Limonade and Jiem L\u2019Hostis, joined forces to form an international collective, the Gesellschaft der Stadtwanderer (Company of Urban Wanderers), for the Urban Art Biennale 2024. This group engaged intensively with the city of V\u00f6lklingen and its history. To enable local participation, posters with contact details went up around town so that people could get in touch with the collective, some members of which were in V\u00f6lklingen for a number of weeks. The people of V\u00f6lklingen were happy to share their memories and feelings. This dialogue resulted in a wide range of works that take the form of temporary, unauthorised interventions in urban space. \u201cWe are taking the liberty of intervening in the city, but we are not in the business of perpetrating vandalism \u2013 our interventions can be reversed at any time,\u201d says Mathieu Tremblin, who was impressed by the readiness of the people of V\u00f6lklingen to get involved.

Fluido\u2019s graphical constructions, evocative of industrial architecture, mark one possible logical development that can be drawn from the practice and formal language of urban art. <br> Surprisingly, his architectural extensions fit just as well with drawings of baroque English country castles as they do with \u2013 more obviously \u2013 historical photographs of the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks.

This is one reason no doubt why his \u201cmaking-of\u201d videos enjoy such a large following on social media. So-called Ottotools were also employed in the creation of his work <em>Momentum<\/em>. Here, modified brushes have been used to create lively textures and colour overlays that lend the mural a vibrancy and dynamism in combination with the open-ended circular forms. Striking too are its richly contrasting colour changes, which create visual tension. As Baum explains, the work is about capturing movement and energy \u2013 \u201ca feeling of continuous flow and growth\u201d \u2013 which is why a more fitting place for its production than the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks is hard to imagine. For over a century, the plant and its machinery were in constant motion, pulsating with the movement of people and raw materials, and expending huge amounts of energy \u2013 all with the aim of producing enormous volumes of pig iron, which in turn generated economic growth and prosperity for the whole region.<\/p><p>Daniel Bauer<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":159,"title":"25 - Jef A\u00e9rosol","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">25<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Jef A\u00e9rosol<\/span>","left":"16%","top":"44%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">25<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Black is beautiful!<\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">Jef A\u00e9rosol<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/urban-art-biennale-2022\/Jef-Aerosol-Black-is-beatiful__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Jef Aerosol Black is beatiful\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-3492\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-3492\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Jef Aerosol Black is beatiful\n \n <br>Copyright: Weltkulturerbe V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte \/ Hans-Georg Merkel \n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Weltkulturerbe V\u00f6lklinger H\u00fctte \/ Hans-Georg Merkel <\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>Jef A\u00e9rosol<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2014, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Dimensions<\/h3>\n <p>240 x 600 cm <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Material<\/h3>\n <p>Spr\u00fchfarbe, Holz <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/jef-aerosol\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=7\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>Jean-Fran\u00e7ois Perroy, alias Jef A\u00e9rosol, is an original member of the French pochoir movement. Together with fellow pochoirists like Blek le Rat and Miss Tic, he pioneered the stencilling technique so frequently replicated in the UrbanArt of today. Back in 1986, he created the cover artwork for \"Vite Fait, Bien Fait\", the very first book on the subject of street art, or rather, on the culture of rebellion that the art form represents. Translating as \"Done Quickly, Done Well\", the book's title sums up the punk spirit that characterised the early stencilists. Jef A\u00e9rosol's first graffiti series appeared in Tours in 1982. Based on photos from a photo booth, it comprises a set of self-portraits showing Aerosol making funny faces. The pictures are framed by writing on two sides in a format reminiscent of the record cover for \"London Calling\" by The Clash (Jef A\u00e9rosol is also a musician). The words that feature there include the artist's pseudonym as well as terms and slogans like \"Click Clack\" and \"Sniffin' Paint \" \u2013 references to the transgressive act of spray painting. Over the course of his career, Jef A\u00e9rosol has refined this initial silhouette-like motif style, to create more sophisticated detailed representations. While life-size portraits or figures feature regularly in the pochoiristes' works, Jef A\u00e9rosol now takes things further still, creating murals that cover entire house walls. Of course, pieces such as these can hardly be executed in passing using only cardboard and spray paint cans (the means normally availed of by street punks). But A\u00e9rosol has stayed true to the rough, grayscale look of his original works. Besides rock stars like himself, Jef A\u00e9rosol likes to portray ordinary people. In the piece shown here, a whitewashed assemblage of boards \u2013 reminiscent of the walls of a slum shack \u2013 serves as the background for his portrayal of a group of cheerful African children. Its title came to him as he was browsing through his record collection and came across an album by Soul Unlimited. Its name: \"Black is beautiful \".<br><br>Robert Kaltenh\u00e4user<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":160,"title":"26 - Germain Pr\u00e9vost","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">26<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Germain Pr\u00e9vost<\/span>","left":"22%","top":"45%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">26<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Forkliftography #4<\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">Germain Pr\u00e9vost<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n <div class=\"exhibit-hero\">\n <img src=\"\/assets\/guide\/exponate\/bilder\/2024_Urban-Art_Biennale\/Germain_Prevost_Fork_KHV_kompr__ScaleMaxWidthWzE2MDBd.jpg\" alt=\"Germain Prevost Fork KHV kompr\" aria-describedby=\"image-info-8534\">\n <div class=\"image-info\">\n \n <p id=\"image-info-8534\" class=\"image-info-accessibility sr-only\">Germain Prevost Fork KHV kompr\n \n <br>Copyright: Karl Heinrich Veith \n \n <\/p>\n \n\n \n \n <div class=\"copyright\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <button tabindex=\"-1\" class=\"copyright-trigger\">©<\/button>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip hidden\">\n <p>Karl Heinrich Veith <\/p>\n <div class=\"copyright-tooltip-arrow\" data-popper-arrow><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>Germain Pr\u00e9vost<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Date<\/h3>\n <p>2024, in situ <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/artists\/info\/germain-prevost\" class=\"btn-bordered\">To the artist page<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=7\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>Marseilles artist Germain Pr\u00e9vost, alias Ipin, is fascinated by the search for new and unconventional forms of expression.

With this radical and self-imposed restriction of painterly means, Ipin succeeds in not only disrupting our conventional viewing habits but also articulating what for him is a key role of art: its unconditional demand to be, if necessary, a pure, site-specific presence above and beyond any consideration of technical mastery and formal constraints.<br><br>Daniel Bauer<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"},{"marker":{"id":161,"title":"27 - Studierende der Ecole Nationale Sup\u00e9rieure d'Architecture de Strasbourg (ENSAS) ","title_html":"<span class=\"guide-vpm-small\">27<\/span><span class=\"guide-vpm-zoomed\"> - Studierende der Ecole Nationale Sup\u00e9rieure d'Architecture de Strasbourg (ENSAS) <\/span>","left":"15%","top":"32%","type":"Info"},"info":"\n<div class=\"block block--blank block--exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-navigation\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n \n <div class=\"prev\"><\/div>\n \n <span class=\"exhibit-number\">27<\/span>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"next\"><\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-header-info\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-10\">\n <h1>Organes industriels<\/h1>\n \n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"exhibit-artist\">Studierende der Ecole Nationale Sup\u00e9rieure d'Architecture de Strasbourg (ENSAS) <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"block block--white\">\n <div class=\"container\">\n\n <div class=\"row justify-content-center exhibit-item-infos\">\n <div class=\"col-12\">\n\n <div class=\"row exhibit-item-infos-list\">\n\n \n <div class=\"col-12 col-md-6\">\n <h3>Artist<\/h3>\n <p>Studierende der Ecole Nationale Sup\u00e9rieure d'Architecture de Strasbourg (ENSAS) <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 exhibit-item-actions-wrappercol\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"exhibit-item-actions\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"\/en\/mediaguide\/home\/urban-art-biennale-2024\/parcours\/#;vp3=6\" class=\"btn-bordered\"><svg class=\"svg-pin\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 16 16\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><g fill=\"#4CA981\" transform=\"scale(0.015625 0.015625)\"><path d=\"M512 0c-212.062 0-384 171.938-384 384s384 640 384 640 384-427.938 384-640-171.938-384-384-384zM512 640c-141.376 0-256-114.624-256-256s114.624-256 256-256 256 114.624 256 256-114.624 256-256 256z\"\/><\/g><\/svg>Auf Lageplan anzeigen<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"exhibit-item-infos-description\">\n <h3>Description <\/h3>\n <div class=\"exhibit-description\">\n <p>Artists and lecturers Arzhel Prioul and Mathieu Tremblin staged a workshop with 36 students from the \u00c9cole Nationale Sup\u00e9rieure d'Architecture de Strasbourg (ENSAS). Their subject was the artistic use of urban billposting, with the V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks providing an allegory of a world after the withdrawal from fossil fuels. The workshop posed the following questions: What future might be envisaged for a post-industrial wasteland and ruin? And: Which useful ecosystems can be hosted by a UNESCO World Heritage Site?<br>The second group produced a display on the subject of \u201cplumes of smoke\u201d. Here, the ironworks is reimagined as a body complete with \u201cindustrial organs\u201d, which represent various social and environmental problems in an allegorical manner. Five locations within the ironworks stand for these problems, each narrated with its own story: the sintering hall symbolises the alienation resulting from work and worker protest; the blower hall stands for the release of carbon into the atmosphere; the blast furnaces represent global warming, the water tower the scarcity of water; and \u201cParadise\u201d shows a possible redemption in the shape of a different form of extraction by this industry.<br><br>Jeanette Dittmar <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n \n <div class=\"elemental-area\">\n \n\n <\/div>\n \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n"}]}] Select exhibit
