New Event: River Tales

Dear B49refine friends,

we had to put the B49refine project on ice due to organizational problems.
But we founded an alternative project River Tales.
You can find information to the River Tales event, the participating artist and much more on www.River-Tales.de.

Verschiebung des Events auf Herbst 2011

Liebe Kunstinteressierte und B49refine-Freunde,

leider müssen Euch mitteilen, dass aufgrund zu klärender Auflagen und ausstehender Defizite im Budget das Event oder ein vergleichbares voraussichtlich erst im Herbst diesen Jahres statt finden kann. Entsprechende Informationen werden hier auf der Webseite veröffentlicht.

Euer

B49refine-Team

Book MURAL ART Vol.3 out now

The MURAL ART Vol.3, whihc features some of the participating artists of the b49refine project, is ou now..

The book MURAL ART Vol.3 – MURALS ON HUGE PUBLIC SURFACES AROUND THE WORLD follows on in old manner to the first two parts of the successful series. On 272 pages, landscape format, once more the reader can go on an optical journey around the continents and gets an overview about the biggest mural projects of the world. Meet over 120 artists, crews and organizations of the international scene around their best facades and walls. From Europe to Africa, from America to Asia and Oceania are presented 1000 walls with techniques from graffiti and stencil to trompe l’œil, suiting after everybody’s fancy.

The focus is on the increasing disappearance of the limits of traditional painting and street art. Where does traditional painting end and where starts street art? It becomes obvious that the limits blur more and more and a dissociation of each is just within the viewers – or in case of doubt within the authorities – discretion. This time, too, the artists insist on providing the reader a personal insight to their artistic background and their motivation for bringing colour in our everyday life.

Artists like MODE 2, die FX CREW, 3 STEPS, ART FACADE, H02, HITOZUKI, SHOK-1, KACAO 77, VULCAN, 2501, SABER, CLYDE, TATS CRU, RON ENGLISH and many more point out, that into the world of mural art between colors and shapes, only sky is the limit!

Author Kiriakos Iosifidis, editor of the Greek graffiti magazine «Carpe Diem» managed it, even within this third edition, to present the great names of the wall painting scene authentically.

Once more the hardcover book fulfils all requirements as a solid publication of reference for all people who are into art, general public and urban planners.

Dem Autor Kiriakos Iosifidis, Herausgeber des griechischen Graffiti-Magazins «Carpe Diem» ist es auch diesmal gelungen, die Größen der Wandmalerei authentisch zu präsentieren. Das Hardcover Buch erfüllt somit erneut alle Voraussetzungen als stichhaltiges Nachschlagewerk für alle Szenemenschen, Kunstinteressierte, Normalbürger und Stadtplaner.
