One Thing is for sure – The Change
I love it dearly, my police piggy between Essen West and Frohnhausen. Lately I have been worried about losing it. It was already quite faded and in danger of disappearing soon. It was painted by the USW crew in 2008 for their 10th anniversary and has been on the wall for 15 years. When I […]
LACUNA on a flying visit
Just recently, during one of my wanderings, I stumbled across a paste-up by the Berlin based street artist LACUNA. I was thrilled; paste-ups are rare to find in Essen and don’t have a high chance of survival here. Too many people try to peel the works off the wall to take them away and destroy […]
Fly Ladybug Fly
In 2021 a house in Frohnhausen, at Jacob-Grimm-Straße, was provided with a new mural by WERKSTRAND. A passer-by was immediately in love with it and decided that her house in Grevelstraße, boring and war-grey, urgently needed a new face. In a nutshell: Pascal Maßbaum, street artist based in Essen, was hired. Done! Grevelstraße 17; Pascal […]
Fronx – Werkstrand & Mr.Pilz have finished a new mural
The beat of life is at Frohnhauser Straße, but turning into one of the quiet side streets like Jacob-Grimm-Straße, you’ll find yourself in a quiet and shady universe with old trees. A peaceful neighbourhood, where fox and hare bid each other goodnight. Especially the residents of house 5 nowadays may have the impression to live […]
Essen gets on the bike
At ETEC, next to A40, the most frequented motorway in our region, Ursula Meyer has finished her new mural „Essen steigt auf“. Inveterate motorists softly are motivated by two of the artist’s iconic characters on bikes, to change their style of travel to a more climate-conscious one. Location

WE HAVE A DREAM – HAKUNA MATATA – IN THE HOOD
I have been asked several times recently if the walls at Lüneburger- / Sybel- / Frankfurter straße are legal walls and a hall of fame. To be honest, I have no idea, but I don’t think so. I assume that these walls will soon be torn down because construction is going to take place there. […]
Springtime is Paste-up time …
… at least in Essen Frohnhausen Those of you who are walking the Fronx with open eyes currently, may already have noticed them. The paste-ups glued by EIKE with a little help of a number of friends like Ursula Meyer, COSY, 0ae and who knows who else. I don’t know, if I have caught them […]
Spring is upon us …
… and not only in the Fronx the trees are budding. After resting and refining their strengths for another year, artists crawled out of their holes and nests, where they have spent the winter in hibernation. Nature and artists outdo each other with fresh colours. Westpark – LYP CVA Frohnhauser Markt – Installation / Paste-Up […]
