Peter Freund

<div>Only the best. To be found at the end of Westwerk turning left before the green villa. Peter Freund grew up in Leipzig's graffiti scene. He already owned a sketchbook / black book at the age of 14. He roamed Leipzig as an artist on walls with different crews in the 90s. Experiences from literature over graffiti and street live led him to drawing and painting. As head of production at "Fälschergalerie" (counterfeit gallery) 2006 - 2010 he learned copying various styles. You may find it hard to find an artist who has produced more copies of Pollocks, Baskiats or Warhols that are now to be found in German living rooms than him.<br><br>Kontakt: 1984.freund@web.de<br>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/peter_freund/">@peter_freund</a><br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpFf4Jl32Hs">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpFf4Jl32Hs</a></div>

Doppeldenk

<div>The artists Marcel Baer and Andreas Glauch, who have already drawn attention to themselves by designing facades in the west of the city - for example in Lützner Straße - are responsible for the image idea and implementation. Her trademark: neon colors and figures from pop and subculture that seem familiar at first glance. On closer inspection, however, new picture elements and levels are revealed.<br><br>The new mural is 18 meters high and 14 meters wide. 150 liters of paint were used for this. "The message behind 'Mother Earth' is the appreciation of life and the protection of the living space required for it," says Marcel Baer. "Last but not least, we see it as an appreciation of the feminine as a source of life."<br><br>The work is part of the “Knot Point” art festival, which is dedicated to contemporary urban art. In 2017, for the first time, it was expanded into a multi-city series of events in Hamburg, Berlin, Vienna, Cologne and Leipzig. Facade painting is a focus.</div><div><br></div>

<div>from cotton to culture<br><br></div><div>More than 125 years ago, Leipziger Baumwollspinnerei Aktiengesellschaft bought a plot of around 10 hectares on the western outskirts of Leipzig. By 1907, it had become the biggest cotton-spinning mill in continental Europe. This fascinating factory town, including workers’ homes, allotment gardens as well as the factory kindergarten, has survived intact to this day. In 1992 the then obsolete cotton-yarn factory complex has opened for redevelopment and it has witnessed continuous of change ever since. It was mostly artists who acted as the pioneers of revitalisation here, and as a consequence the Spinnerei has become home to more than 100 studios today. The first artists to set up in the former factory building included some well known international names, such as Neo Rauch, who continues to work here. In addition to the artists, it was possible to attract musicians, dancers, craftspeople, architects, traders, printers, designers and many others to set up shops and studios in the Spinnerei.<br><br></div><div>By the end of 2004, the Spinnerei had become well known as a centre for artistic production and it had succeeded in attracting the attention of Leipzig’s gallery scene. In 2005, six Leipzig galleries opened new exhibitions in the Spinnerei, one of the trailblazers being EIGEN + ART which opened a spectacular gallery in the former steam engine hall. The growing international interest in art from Leipzig acted as an incentive for additional tenants so that today the Spinnerei is home to 14 galleries and exhibitions. Galleries, resident artists and the nonprofit Hall 14 have created a “cosmos of art” which is without equal anywhere in the world. There is hardly any other big, commercially revitalised factory complex which can boast so many art enthusiasts while continuing to provide a sanctuary for many artists and other creative freelancers. Today, the Spinnerei is an authentic, historic factory complex whose soul is its many creative inhabitants and the contemporary content which they bring to it.<br><br>In 1992, about 100 years after the construction of Leipzig’s cotton mill, the gradual dismantling of the spinning facilities in the 6 ha Wilhelminian style industrial complex began. It was only a question of time until 70,000 square metres of active surface distributed in 23 single buildings would become a victim to vacancy.<br><br>Contrary to the trend of the early 1990’s of quick and expensive total refurbishment based on dodgy utilisation forecasts, a new settlement with alternative utilisation started at the same time as the disassembly of the production lines.<br><br></div><div>Meanwhile about 70% of the total area are rented out. However, some gentle renovation measures and works in the appurtenant structures will be finished step by step.<br><br></div><div><br><br><strong>Opening Hours:</strong><br>Tuesday till Saturday<br>11.00 AM - 6.00 PM<br><br></div>

Michael Fischer

<div>Michael Fischer-Art, did an apprenticeship as a bricklayer and painter, worked as a caretaker in a psychiatry, before he did his A levels after the fall of the Wall in 1992. He studied in the graphics class of Professor Rolf Münzner in Leipzig and got his diploma.&nbsp;<br><br>Based on socialist realism, Fischer-Art describes his work as belonging to "market economy realism". In his visual language he uses rich colors, large areas, simple structures and comic-like "muppets", which creates a high recognition value. In terms of content, Fischer-Arts works are socially critical. In his work that is politically and socially critical, he deals with current events such as the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, accidents such as the sinking of the Kursk, but also the addiction to luxury and labels such as Louis Vuitton.</div>

<div><br>Hype Dimension. Applied the new AR technique on a previous wall to check the effect on a larger scale and get a better idea of the software and production flow. Stumbling around like a smartphone zombie, chasing something that isn't really there.<br><strong><br>Augmented / Mixed Reality Graffiti / Art </strong>"Lately I have been experimenting with augmented and mixed reality application development and here are the first results. I was always sceptical about VR and AR and the direction of perception these mediums are leading. Basically away from reality that is and the latter I cherish a lot. But I must admit, the sensation of diving into an artwork is quite something special and offers tremendous possibilities. As always we can only see where this future will lead us.After painting on the wall directly, I created some 3D models to match the piece with Unity 3d. With this software and the Vuforia package I built an AR app that runs on my android phone, matching the 3d models on the reference image of the wall."<br><br><a href="https://youtu.be/_o4UEYIJpfo">https://youtu.be/_o4UEYIJpfo</a><br><a href="https://truluv.de/augmented-mixed-reality-graffiti-art/">https://truluv.de/augmented-mixed-reality-graffiti-art/</a><br><strong><br>Bond Truluv (</strong>Jonas Ihlenfeldt)</div>

Rabet

<div>Doppeldenk was named after a term from George Orwell's legendary utopia novel "1984", in which "Doppeldenk" describes the ability to have two completely opposite views in one's head at the same time and to accept them both. In the case of Marcel Baer and Andreas Glauch, this means depicting multi-layered worlds in their motley and extremely complex works. If at first glance they impress primarily with their neon colors and the numerous allusions to topics of pop and subculture, they also have a further, much more subversive level. Radegundis, the patron saint&nbsp; the weaver skips the laurel bush with her faithful lion. An interesting theme between industrial past and the exploitation of workers in the borough of Plagwitz in Leipzig, their hopes and wishes to icons and mystified human beings and the jump into today's, modern Plagwitz with a new work ethic.</div>

Denis Klatt Hifi

<div><br></div><pre>Dortmund-born artist Dennis Klatt - also known as "Hifi" in the graffiti scene - tells surreal stories in his works. His field of work is broad: while he initially studied design at the University of Applied Science in Dortmund, his works today combine photorealism, surrealism, 3D style and illusion painting. In his surreal landscapes he plays with reality by including the surroundings of the work of art through reflections.
For example, in the small courtyard of the wallpaper factory (Tapetenwerk). The work was created in 2016 in cooperation with the gallery Hier + Jetzt.</pre><div><a href="https://www.denisklatt.de/">https://www.denisklatt.de/</a></div>

<div>Gentrification has left its toll also on Leipzig. Society and gentrification critical mural in a former partly squatted house that is now under redevelopment after the Austrian owner must have sold it. The artwork defines a critical view on current developments in the area where more and more people are being pushed out of their neighborhoods by rising rents. The building exemplifies the case as the investor was involved in a number of legal cases with different communities in the house following him for example switching off their water supply in an effort to empty the building of tenants.</div>
