GERMANY: Streetart Oldenburg – Bundesbahnweg Graffiti Hall – MEMUR URBAN ART FESTIVAL

The fantastic MEMUR FESTIVAL took place in Oldenburg on the railway embankment wall along the Bundesbahnweg from August 12th to 14th in 2022. The title is a combination of memorial and mural. More than 30 regional and international artists designed a 280-meter-long wall with magnificent works depicting experiences and impressions of recent years, such as the pandemic, war, conflicts, and other areas of social and political tension. The common denominator of the artworks was thus the experience and reflection of collective memory.

With its flowing and tilting walls, the MARTA MUSEUM in Herford, East Westphalia, is one of the most unusual museum buildings in the world. For the facade, the American star architect FRANK GEHRY chose dark red bricks, which contrast with the bright stainless steel roof and the white plastered core of the building. The development of the museum’s collection began with the construction of the MARTA, which opened in 2005. It comprises around 500 works by approximately 170 artists, many of them large-format pieces of contemporary art.

GERMANY: Urban Art Wunstorf – B441 Hoch Bridge – Graffiti Hall of Fame – Underrated Gem Spot

This time we’re going to Wunstorf to a Hall of Fame that is hardly in the public eye and should not be underestimated. West of the Wunstorf train station, the span of the railway tracks to the west towards the city of Minden and to the northwest towards the city of Bremen is crossed by an elevated national road Hochstraße (B 441). Between these tracks and below this “urban planning fiasco” there is a small legal spray spot. This little insider tip often surprises with the finest pieces, which (at times) do not have to shy away from a quality comparison with those of the famous halls in the cities around.

GERMANY: Architecture Dortmund – Collection Subway Stations – Underground Geometry

The photos of selected subway stations in Dortmund were taken a few years ago and the focus in these images was on the symmetrical arrangement of the underground architecture and on its geometric brutality. You can attest to an artistic concept in some stations – just like the spray can works, but it is a visual and mathematical contrast. No freestyle, but the architectural interpretation of the linear, cold functionality of buildings. Still they are charming and definitly interesting creations in urban space.
