REDL182. REDLBorn in Zurich in 1969, REDL developed a passion for drawing from an early age on. When the hip-hop culture and particularly graffiti grew in Europe during the early eighties, he was immediately fascinated by this new form of creative expression and sprayed his first painting in 1983. Parallel to his preparatory course at the Zurich School of Arts and his vocational training as a photo retoucher and illustrator, REDL further developed his graffiti skills. The young artist was fascinated so much that he dedicated himself completely to this exiting mix of art and movement. In consequence, REDL became one of the main exponents of the Swiss graffiti and street art scene in the 1990s. By traveling around (Paris, Amsterdam to New York and Quito) he expanded his artistic horizon and met some of the most famous street artists, which had a significant influence on his work. In 1993, he founded artworks.ch and since then has worked as an independent artist, graphic designer and illustrator. Between 1998 and 2003, REDL regularly exhibited his works in Zurich. As of 2004, he focused on his professional independence as a graphic designer and illustrator and only created canvas paintings and murals on request. Among other things, he created the graphic design for the Openair Frauenfeld (the largest urban music festival in Europe) for 10 years. Or portrayed 120 athletes for Swiss Olympic, for the Olympic Games in London 2012. For the past 12 years, REDL has specialized in 3D Anamorphic Murals, a complex version of contemporary urban art in public spaces. Since that time he has been working with Alex Hohl on large projects. A competent and well-established network of urban artists perfectly complements the duo. So they completed projects at home and abroad for numerous companies, public institutions and private clients. Most of the artworks are created in Switzerland. But also in Egypt, Brazil, Hong-Kong, Thailand, Belgium, Italy, Germany and Spain REDL and his team has successfully executed big mural art projects.
Solo191. SoloRome, italy 1982. Devourer of comics and pop culture, he discovered the world of graffiti at the high school. After, at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome, under the guidance of Michele Cossyro, he transformed his way of expressing himself through painting on canvas, experimenting with classic techniques and moving his language from the typical writing lettering to the figurative. In 2008 he graduated with full marks, interviewing Ronnie Cutrone in New York. Subsequently Solo, combines the world of graffiti, made of spray cans, with the pop figures that he fixed on canvas during his studies, making superheroes in crisis appear on the walls of Rome, which will remain the hallmark of his artistic research. Raised with the values of the heroes encountered in comics, he amplifies those teachings by transferring them to the walls of cities and thus making them available to everyone. Over the last 15 years he has painted on walls and exhibited his works in numerous important galleries, from Paris to Prague, up to Satka in Russia, where in 2017, he was chosen together with Diamond, with whom he shares the studio, to represent Italy at the international street art biennial, and in Miami, where in 2013 he exhibited at Art Basel. At the same time as his artistic production with walls, canvases, sculptures and silk-screen prints, he brings his experience by teaching in schools, prisons and healthcare facilities. Over the years he has collaborated with underground realities such as Respect Project, with which he creates clothing, and with the largest international brands, including Valentino with a capsule in 2016, Marvel-Disney, Warner Bros and Panini, thanks to the global diffusion of cinecomics, and Louis Vuitton, which commissioned a series of hand-painted trunks between 2019 and 2020
