With colourful paste-ups, in the past also using reverse graffiti, but also with stencils and spray paint, seiLeise creates works that not only impress the viewer aesthetically, but are also able to affect them emotionally. SeiLeise pays particular attention to socio-critical and ecological content, which, in combination with an often pictorial immanence of childlike perspectives and attitudes, develops an extraordinary power that makes the viewer aware of their very own current life situation and life responsibility in relation to contemporary problems in a gentle and sometimes touching way. (Stefan Moll \/\/ Gallery for Contemporary Art)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mittenimwald:<\/strong><br \/>\nGerman street artist who is best known for his work with stencils, collages and stickers. He worked as a designer in various advertising agencies before quitting his job in 2005 and turning to street art. He started with stickers and developed into a skilful stencil artist.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cuts and Pieces:<\/strong><br \/>\nThe works of Cuts and Pieces are located at the iridescent interface between pop and street.It is often the technical means of street art, such as spray paint and stencils, that the Cologne-based artist uses on the one hand to visualise pop-cultural aesthetics on the other.Again, pop-cultural content from film, advertising and comics is usually the essential basis for his transformations and re-contextualisations of this content into often collaged artworks in the spirit of street art.(Stefan Moll \/\/ Galerie f\u00fcr aktuelle Kunst)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Leo-Leander Namislow:<\/strong><br \/>\nLeo Namislow (*1983, Essen), lives and works as a freelance artist in Essen. Having grown up in Rhineland-Palatinate, the trained stonemason initially worked for a Frankfurt production company for animated films. When he returned to Essen in 2007, he began to devote himself full-time to art. Since then, his work has been honoured in numerous solo and group exhibitions, including the Kunstverein Essen-Werden and the Galerie Jetzt am Dellplatz in Duisburg, to name but a few, and his artistic language is very diverse in terms of both form and content. In his works, we encounter mysterious figures that live in dreamlike landscapes and are often reminiscent of stories such as Alice in Wonderland. His series of one-liners is characterised by clarity and consistency.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Philip Wallisfurth:<\/strong><br \/>\nStreet artist Senor Schnu has been artistically travelling through Germany and the world since 2007.<br \/>\nOriginally from Aachen, he lives and works in Berlin and his works cover a broad spectrum from classic paste-ups on the street to moss graffiti, sculptures and paintings on canvas, in a style between comic and abstraction, with pop cultural references. his medium is primarily the spray can, but his style is also characterised by his flexibility in his choice of materials and artistic expression: For example, he has been experimenting for some time with impressive, anamorphic spatial installations.Quote: \u2018What I appreciate about Se\u00f1or Schnu is that he is always good for a surprise.\u2019 (Katia Hermann, art historian)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Address:<\/strong><br \/>\nKulturbunker Cologne-M\u00fclheim<br \/>\nBerliner Stra\u00dfe 20<br \/>\n51063 Cologne<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SHORT CUT presents exclusive new works by five established protagonists of the national urban art scene in the gallery of the Kulturbunker in Cologne. seiLeise (Cologne) in cooperation with Leo-Leander Namislow (Essen), mittenimwald (Hamburg), Philip Wallisfurth (Berlin) and Cuts and Pieces (Cologne) invite you to take an exclusive look at their current works for a [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":34981,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","tags":[],"mec_category":[3985,3897,3901],"class_list":["post-34982","mec-events","type-mec-events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","mec_category-cologne","mec_category-exhibition","mec_category-germany"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.urbanpresents.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mec-events\/34982","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.urbanpresents.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mec-events"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.urbanpresents.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/mec-events"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.urbanpresents.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.urbanpresents.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=34982"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.urbanpresents.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/34981"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.urbanpresents.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=34982"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.urbanpresents.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=34982"},{"taxonomy":"mec_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.urbanpresents.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mec_category?post=34982"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
