One thing is for sure – The Change
It’s a never ending story of win and loss – The Change. That’s a fact in street art and graffiti, I had and still have the most problems to accept and deal with. You walk past the same place again and again and see favourite pieces come and go. It doesn’t get any easier, even […]
HoF Villa RÜ in March
There used to be a way of restricting access to the Villa RÜ site. And I’ve always been annoyed by this stupid red and white pole, and almost always managed to avoid it in my photos. But after the refurbishment, they have now opted for an annoyingly inelegant and extremely disruptive version of a barrier. […]
One Thing is for sure – The Change
Many historic Essen railway stations disappeared from the scene during the bombing raids of the Second World War, or later in the demolition mania of the sixties and seventies. Fortunately not the Südbahnhof, which made it onto the city of Essen’s list of monuments 30 years ago. The building, modelled on a suburban railway station […]
One Thing is for sure – The Change
I don’t have to think twice when people ask me for the most colourful address in Essen’s city centre. Is it a street or an extended backyard? Well – it doesn’t matter. The name of the street: Am Perscheplatz, directly behind Atelierhaus (Schützenbahn 19). It’s been several years since the unpopular dingy corner became a […]
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 […]
One Thing is for sure – The Change
What makes a wall an eye-catcher wall? It doesn’t even have to be very big, but as is always the case with real estate, only three things count: location, location, location. Owners of such walls go through hard times – at least if they are of the „my wall should be momochrome and clean“ faculty. […]
One Thing is for sure – The Change
In Steele everything is new in spring. Around Kaiser Otto Platz there are a few freshly renovated cable distributors to admire and in addition, some freshly painted flower tubs are waiting to be planted so that the path from the station to the city centre becomes even more colourful. Kaiser-Otto-Platz (11/2022) & (03/2023) THE TOP […]

Das Ruhr Ding – Another Weekend
In 2019, the artist Stefan Marx participated in the „Ruhr Ding“ with three monochrome murals in Dortmund, Bochum and Essen. The three murals form a triptych that symbolises the past, present and future of the Ruhr region. The façade of the IKK at Burgwall 20 was already artistically designed with a mural before. I took […]
One Thing is for sure – The Change
A lot has changed around the gallery Töchter & Söhne at Reisholzer Werftstraße 73. Accompanying their exhibition, which can be seen until 28 October, EKSIT and FUME have of course left their mark. FUME (12/2017) & FUME x EKSIT (09/2022) L.E.T. Les Enfants Terribles (12/2017) & artist unknown (09/2022) artist unknown (12/2017) & artist unknown […]
