CityLeaks QR-Codes

All murals painted during CityLeaks Festival have been marked by MSH AND MORE under support of kehrseite. Additional information on the artists and murals will be easily accessible via QR-codes that can be read with smart phones.

Apart from that, the position data of every artwork is connected to Google Maps, Gowalla and Foursquare. Thus, Cologne citizens may take walks across the city and explore urban art in a playful way.

On Sunday, 25th September there will be the opportunity to test the QR-codes on an exclusive tour organised by MSH. More Info here.

INTI Web Clip

Georg — Sat, 08 Oct 2011 21:29:46 +0000

During CityLeaks Festival, a large wall at Vogelsanger Straße became home to one of Chilean street artist INTI‘s enigmatic ninja figures. Seemingly inviting and holding us off alike, the bright fellow with its totemic masks, skull necklace and maize cobs unites all kinds of motives and elements from Chilean indigenous cultures. No matter what ideas it will provoke in the passerby, one will always feel the powerfully radiant warmth emanating from INTI’s beautiful wall that promises to heat up Cologne on cold days to come. See INTI in action and learn more about his art and the origin of its influences. Feel the heat!

Laguna web clip

Spanish artist Laguna enchanted us all with that beautiful artwork he painted onto the large wall of a car park near Friesenplatz. Towering over the busy traffic rolling along Magnusstraße, two dreamers face each other in a dazzling caleidoscope of powerful colours. With his bright counterpoint in that otherwise unspectacular spot of Cologne, Laguna created an enigmatic invitation to dream oneself away. See him working on his massive wall and listen what he has to tell us about his art, dreams and the surrealism of the everyday.

ZEDZ & Smash137 Web clip

Georg — Sat, 08 Oct 2011 21:23:26 +0000

Graffiti grandmasters Smash137 from Switzerland and ZEDZ from the Netherlands created a joint piece on a large wall at Ehrenfeld´s EVA centre. Smash´s unique style-writing and Zedz´ multi-dimensional square pieces merge into an impressive tableau at the edge of graffiti and street art. Watch them “co-scoring” their artwork and listen their comments on street art, graffiti and everything in between.
