Anthony Lister is a pioneer of street art movement Australia. In his opinion, he is a freedom fighter aka time traveller. Lister began painting on the streets at the age of 17 and never stoped. He studied at the Queensland College of Art. His scrawling, figurative style employs charcoal, acrylic, spray paint, and oil. He has also collaborated with many well-known artists and personalities including Blek le Rat, Space Invader, Mark „Chopper“ Reid, Nick Cave and many more. Noted as one of the top 50 most collectable Australian artists, Lister’s work for example are included in the collections of National Gallery of Australia. The first rule of painting is to take everyone else out of the equation, he has said. „I am the viewer, so I don`t underestimate my viewers. They see everything and I just have to assume that they are me. I can`t paint for anyone else.“

Born in 1990, Anya Mielniczek is a Toronto based Polish-Canadian artist who grew up between the city in Canada and the country sides of Poland. As a mixed-media artist, her work explores combinations of both fine art and street dirt mediums.

Mielniczek takes easily discarded materials such as plastic bags and candy wrappers adding value to what otherwise is considered trash, while drawing attention to our consumeristic tendencies and the implications this has on our environment. Inspired by waste, moody images and the treatment of our natural resources her pieces are emotionally charged, experimental and responsive to the time and place she’s creating in. The artist’s work is both figurative and representational, compiled of layers, textures, and the energy felt in unaltered lines. Decidedly playing between a real and fantastical aesthetic forming a greater narrative pertinent to environmental change –informing herself as well as viewers, of the obstacles our finite world faces in light of our hyper consumption.

Having graduated from Queen’s University in 2012 with a BFAH, Mielniczek completed a year long fellowship with The Living Arts Centre in Mississauga in 2014 and most recently was an artist in residence for a 9 week duration at INSTINC Studios in Singapore, 2016.

DXTR started painting graffiti in ’99 and is an artist and freelance illustrator, currently living in Berlin/Germany. He worked with clients such as Amnesty International, Art Directors Club, Nike, Wired Magazine and Patagonia among many others and exhibited in cities like Berlin, Hamburg, New York, Washington, Detroit, Boston, Vienna, Rome and Shanghai. In September 2011 he founded the art collective THE WEIRD together with his friends, a group of 10 urban artists spread over Europe and focussing on large scale muralism.

Doodling and drawing has always been a passion of mine. Even today I recognize every page of my old school books based on my drawings around texts and images, including those pages where my my mind just wandered somerwhere else.During a trip to Germany at the age of twelve I became aware of graffiti. I started to invest my money in spray cans. Then I redesigned the garage of my parents as well as other sorts of things. Years later I painted a lot on the legal walls in Vienna. That’s when I met other painters and became a member of the Graffiticrew !Bande!, followed by exhibitions and graffiti assignments. In addition to graffiti, I also made a name for myself in art actions in street art in Vienna. Because of my carpentry apprenticeship I was able to combine a lot in terms of craftsmanship and art. My pictures are shaped by all kinds of situations and thoughts in my life. I try to use my pictures to handle things that concern myself. Refering to nature is important to me personally and also in my work. In addition, I spend a lot of time with sports (skateboarding, snowboarding, climbing and surfing). In sports you can experience a lot, which is also reflected in my work.

Currently I am studying graphic design and advertising and the University of Applied Arts Vienna. Moreover I also do freelance work as an illustrator and graphic designer.

I am passionate about creating, old & weird things , fleamarkets, plants and coffee. My love for drawing and creative work has always been there “ I am basically drawing since I can remember. Dedicating my life to creativity and art was probably the best decision I`ve ever made, even if I am not sure where this will lead me. But I know that drawing and painting is what I really enjoy right now, where I can express myself or just create some random funny stuff.

Farid Rueda, a Mexican street artist, combines graffiti with

Mexican popular culture and history. He is best known for his murals and large-scale works.

Rueda was born in Morelos, which officially bears the title of the Free and Sovereign State of Morelos.

He attended the famous ENAP – Escuela Nacional de Artes Plásticas or National School of Fine Arts.

Although he learned a lot during his studies at this college, Rueda eventually decided that he was not satisfied with ENAP’s programme and made the tough decision to leave without graduating. Together with artist Seher, he began his career as a street artist. Inspired by artists such as John Baizley, Stuntkid, James Jean, Alphonse Mucha, Gustav Klimt and José de Ribera, he continues to find inspiration in various styles and moments in art history.

Rueda’s work is full of subtle references to Mexican culture and heritage. But hey- make up your own mind….

Born in 1979 Fefe was brought up as a native half Mexican, half Brazilian in São Paulo.

Interested in all kind of underground movements, the typical and unique stylistic freedom of the internationally renowned Street Art and Graffiti scene of her hometown made an important impression on the artist. Fefe Talavera`s monster paintings are metaphors for strong and subconscious human emotions like anger, fear, dreams or desire. Inspired by the darkness and the light innate in the dualistic world we inhabit, the colourful fantastic beasts which she connects with the dark side of her inner self stand for the artist`s cultural roots as well as the primary and powerful energy of her work in the streets all over the world and the light she finds in the darkness. Fefe, who is influenced by Mayan or Aztec mythologies and her Mexican heritage, is most well known for her monsters made of cut out letters from concert announcement posters found all around the streets. The glued collage like figures are related to the artist`s admiration for typography, books and prints, but also to her will to somehow free the letters from their fixed meaning as words, sentences or texts, by showing their formal qualities as well as by reminding us that all kind of language is rooted in the direct expression of human affects, not in the function to command them.

Fio Silva is an Argentinian artist and muralist born in Buenos Aires. Her dynamic and organic-looking figures and works are influenced by nature, time and power in combination with animals and elements.

Venezuelan Rafael Fernandez, aka Flix, was born in 1976. His geometrical colourful shapes has an evident Aztec influence. His precised, distinct style of transforming objects, walls and places into strong geometrical colourful art are influenced by an evident Aztec culture. He has been active for years on his local streets, and has created many stunning street art projects using a wide range of techniques. Flix’s first experience with street art began in 2003. Surrounded by an atmosphere of sadness and rejection due to the war, he decided to create some stickers with messages against the Iraq conflict and others for peace. He also created stencils in different sizes to emphasise his message. The choice of colours reflect the Venezuelan flag.

Austrian based artist Franka Rothaug likes to paint all kinds of animals, humans included. Working mostly with oil on canvas, but also wood, walls or cardboard she can  zoom into surreal stories.

PS: Unfuck the world

Graffiti crossed his life by the age of 14, meaning fun in the first place, but later on an obsession in painting. Big wall productions became the ultimative media in combining „style“, meaning lettering, with things that are all around him.

A collective called metzican, conformed by 3 mexican culture lovers, they firmly believe in Mexican culture and that is why all efforts are focused on rescuing, diffusing and strengthening Mexican roots through murals.

One of the ideals is to bring art closer to society and integrate it into the recovery of spaces. The streets are a great medium for communication between society and the message they are trying to spread, with this seeks to generate in people an interest in Mexican culture and art in general.

Mehsos is a Belgian based street artist with deep roots in the graffiti scene. A few years ago, he started his search for new ways to expressing himself with Spraycans and started what he calls an „evolution of style“: he paints faces consisting of emotions.

However, Mehsos does not paint the face for what it is. His goal is to send only the emotions to the recipients. The face is the medium to convey it. Mehsos therefore often uses human and animal faces as models and then draws from them.

He paints his portraits all over the world. During his last big tour through Europe he also stopped in Vienna.

He soon became obsessed with this new and exciting art form and after a few brushes with the law he decided to find ways of developing his skills legally. Since his first commissioned mural at 11yrs old he has continued progressing and experimenting with his art through college and University. This has led to a career as a professional graffiti artist with several solo shows and high profile commissions internationally.

It features layers of intricate and flowing letterforms, shapes and line work, which are abstracted in a unique and aesthetically pleasing way. His style is full of funk and movement and fuses different skills together such as photorealism, illustration and graffiti letterforms. His work is open to individual interpretation and has been described as “surrealist graffiti art for the soul”. He works hard to make sure each piece he creates is very individual and distinctive in its quality. His influences range from the old school graffiti artists that inspired him as a kid such as Dondi and Mode 2 to abstract expressionist painters like Paul Klee and Roger Hilton.

His new work focuses on female faces, which he distorts in his trademark style. He works from portrait and fashion photographs to create unique interpretations of strong and spiritual women, which are abstracted in a spontaneous and freestyle way to create interesting and mysterious compositions. Theses pieces are a melting pot of all the different influences and technical skills he has acquired over the years.

Most notably a Points Of Light Award from 10 Downing St for making a difference and being an inspiration through the medium of Spray-paint with her UK Charity named „U CAN Spray CIO“.

STOHEAD (Christoph Haessler) / 1973 / Germany, lives and works in Berlin. Through his years evolving as an artist, Christoph has gone through several stages of development in styles.

Starting as so many of his kind with graffiti he naturally became accustomed to lettering and calligraphy.

a part time freelance graphic designer, illustration artist and hand-lettering artist from Vienna, Austria. I’m a pencil and marker lover with a weakness for black brush pens, beautiful paper and retro looking drawing materials. I’m an animal lover, cactus worshiper, a vegetarian, a coffee addict and a record enthusiast.

I am super passionate about letterings, calligraphy and illustrations and I try to combine all of it them whenever possible. I love minimalistic line graphics and I do a lot of floral designs – I mean A LOT, simply because it makes me happy. My favorite flower is the daisy btw, so you’ll find it a lot in my works.

When I’m not working as a freelancer, I work as a screen designer and graphic designer at Ben Pazdernik. He’s the greatest – as a person as well as a webcoder/designer. He just knows his work. Both of my websites are put up by him and my colleagues.

I’ve been drawing since … well, forever might sound a bit cheesy right? But honestly – ever since I can remember I expressed myself through it. Music and lyrics have always been a big part of my inspiration and expression in art. That’s even the trigger nowadays most of the time of me starting a new passion project.

Thank you so much for being part of this and for your support. If you have any further questions or requests, please do not hesitate to write me a mail.
