Poststraße Underpass

Description

The underpass at Poststraße in Essen-Kupferdreh (right below the A44 motorway bridge) was completely transformed through a large-scale, professional street art project. As it was previously a frequent target for illegal graffiti, a dedicated local resident kept painting over the vandalism until an official funding request for a professional art installation was approved. Then a team of eight renowned graffiti and urban art artists collaborated to redesign the walls of the underpass in 2025.

In 2013 I started with a new hobby. In the beginning it was difficult to get reliable information how to find streetart in public space. In 2016, I had the idea of sharing my information with other street art enthusiasts and started my blog “Streetartwalks”. When I found out about this new street art community at the beginning of 2018, I was immediately on board.
