In parallel to the windows and facade they decorated with their Persons of Interest (see here) 12 Brooklyn based artists were given carte blanche to decorate the walls of the Urban Nation Haus for a pop up show in Berlin, where nothing was for sale. Each of the participating artist including Icy & Sot, Don Rimx, Case, Specter, Swoon, NohJColey, Dain, Chris Stain, El Sol 25, Esteban Del Valle and Gaia used their own tools and techniques to create a colourful and ephemeral display directly onto the walls.
Here are some behind the scenes shots:
Large crowds attended the opening to celebrate the links between New York and Berlin. Amongst the guests was Gaia‘s Persons of Interest Fereshta Ludin discussing with curators Jaime Rojo and Steven P. Harrington
Many international artists and friends also joined in to show their support: David Walker (UK), Strøk (NO), REKA (AUS), Herakut (DE), MACCLAIM (DE), Vermibus (DE), Mark Rigney (UK), Aida Bragstarr (UK), Onur Dinc (CH), NeverCrew (CH), DotDotDot (NO), Schwarzmaler (CH) and Andreas Englund (SE).
