<div>6-6 PM CET </div>
"The edition BEAUTY is a vivid expression of what I perceive as true beauty. The dynamic interplay of colors within the composition generates a palpable tension, evoking a sense of excitement and arousal. The deliberate use of contrasting hues contributes to an immersive experience, inviting the viewer to be captivated by the intricate details woven into the canvas. 
The infusion of natural elements adds a layer of depth to the piece. The verdant greens and serene blues resonate with the essence of nature, while the warm tones of orange and yellow evoke the mesmerizing hues of a sunset—an enduring wellspring of inspiration in my artistic journey. 
Beyond the visual allure, there is a distinctly feminine energy that emanates from the artwork. This subtle yet powerful aspect adds another layer of complexity, inviting contemplation on the interconnectedness of beauty and femininity within the broader context of the piece." – Sebastian Merk

ABOUT THE WORK  
</div>
</div>
<div></div>
</div>
<div></div>
It is often said that curiosity killed the cat, yet an equally enduring notion suggests that cats possess nine lives. According to a theory put forth by ‘catisticians’ the inherent perils of a cat's curiosity led them to conclude that nine lives would be a far more efficient proposition than just one. This arrangement granted them the freedom they so ardently craved, along with ample time to luxuriate in snug corners, exude an air of bemusement, nap atop pristine piles of laundry, wear an air of apathy, explore the great outdoors, pounce on any moving object, cast disapproving glances, and even exhibit a curious fear of cucumbers. Once cats seemingly mastered the art of putting mortality on ‘paws’, they were liberated to approach life with the unique blend of gusto, agility, courage, and occasional recklessness that only cats can manifest. In his photographic work, Daniel Gebhart de Koekkoek endeavors to capture the aerial acrobatics of these remarkable creatures, introducing his images of Ume, Elli, Flitzie, Nevio, and Fiffy to the world. <meta charset="UTF-8">Now, you can relish one of the photos from this series, beautifully displayed on your wall.

TIME-LIMITED EDITION DROP: MARC KLEIN 14–19 November 2023 6-6 PM CET  The artwork MONOCHROM MIRROR by Marc Klein is also a mirror. For you, for them, for the objects that you see in the mirror. The light in the room changes; the sun goes down, and clouds pass by. The image you will see will only be visible for a moment. Just a glimpse, and it’s gone. If you want to see this exact image again, you have to wait for one year—for the sun to be in the same spot on the same day. You’ll figure this out. It cannot happen again. The moment has passed. You changed, hopefully. Change is a good thing.  ABOUT THE EDITION MONOCHROM MIRROR by Marc Klein is available in five colors. Each edition is unique; it will be created by the artist after the end of the TIME-LIMITED EDITION DROP. Each edition is signed and numbered by the artist.

48-HOUR EDITION DROP I Stefan Heyer 26-28 JULY 2023 6-6 PM CEST 
Stefan Heyer is a German contemporary artist working in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. His gestural abstract paintings are an exploration of histories, both personal and shared, and are inspired by pop culture, esoteric and philosophical issues of our postmodern digital age, alienation, nature, and history in general. His journey to a career in the arts was not born of privilege but of passion.
Experiencing the DIY attitude of the 1980s and 1990s, it was this aesthetic underground rather than academic training that developed Stefan Heyer’s style and consciousness of art. After a career in street fashion as an art and creative director, he went full-time as an artist in 2008.
His work can be found in private collections around the world. Heyer is represented by galleries in the USA (Gallery MAR, Utah, and Simchowitz/Creative Partners in Los Angeles), Grainger Gallery (Australia), DB Contemporary Art (Düsseldorf, Germany), Kunsthaus Artes (Hannover/Berlin, Germany), and JPB-ART Gallery (Saint Tropez, France).
ABOUT THE WORK 
"This painting was the key piece of my work on raw canvas from 2019–2021, a highly transformational period for my artistic practise and also personally: I moved from Hamburg to Spain. As a visualisation of an inner landscape fed by impressions and scents from past travels, the work is also a kind of cosmic mind map, a personal spiritual journey through the Pleroma, a boundless, impersonal space at the root ground of the human soul that encompasses its conscious and unconscious lives. According to Carl Gustav Jung, the soul is the intrapsychic definition of this fullness.
Photo-transferred images of mid-century modern architecture, my alter ego Le Mat/The Fool of the Original Tarot de Marseille, a portrait of musician Frank Ocean, old photos of shamanic rituals I found on the Web, and an image of Ghana's capital Accra Agbogbloshie, home to one of Africa's largest e-waste dumps, as a metaphor of what went wrong on our planet and what we have to solve and overcome as a civilization, are interwoven with my mixed media of oil brush strokes, handwritten words, oil pastel, and pencil lines and marks." – Stefan Heyer

Untitled (Reflection on creation and space)

24-HOUR EDITION DROP I JULE WAIBEL  13-14 JULY 2023  6 PM CEST - 6 PM CEST Jule Waibel currently resides in the dynamic art scene of New York City. With additional studios in Berlin and Bali, Waibel seamlessly weaves her creative spirit across continents, blending diverse influences into her works. Oil paint on canvas is her chosen medium to transport her strong, sensual, and independent figures to centre stage. Waibel's artistic journey is a celebration of the multifaceted nature of femininity, as she captures the essence of empowered women in their everyday lives. From the bustling cityscapes to the serenity of nature's embrace, her figurative paintings radiate with vibrant energy and an unmistakable sense of freedom. ABOUT THE WORK  "ROOFTOP TANNING IN THE CITY" portrays four women in Jule Waibel’s "facets" style. Facets are typically depicted with a light skin tone and a dark skin tone, ranging from white to black and all colours in between. This style symbolises diversity and, most importantly, equality, and that you are the same person no matter the colour of your skin. In this edition, Jule expands the two-toned elements to the towels on which the facets lay.  "I enjoy leaving my artwork open to interpretation and letting viewers create their own story. For me, this was inspired by some of my recent experiences in New York City, where there is a strong balance of independence and togetherness. People are simultaneously in their own peace of mind, but they are still physically together because they have each other." – Jule Waibel HAND-FINISH Each edition comes hand-signed by the artist including a numbered Certificate of Authenticity on the back of the print.

ROOFTOP TANNING IN THE CITY

48-HOUR EDITION DROP I JOACHIM BOSSE 31 MAY – 2 JUNE 6 PM CEST - 6 PM CEST 
Joachim Bosse is a conceptual artist living and working in Berlin. Using hyperrealistic sculptures, typography, and mixed media, he deals with consumerism, the influences of mass media, and the impact of echo chambers and social eco-systems in the digital age. He remixes pop culture and recontextualizes famous iconography in order to question contemporary identities and cultural values. Bosse describes his work as public messaging.
ABOUT THE WORK "OMG, this was my first artwork ever. Until today, it felt like my firstborn, with whom I had a very close and special relationship.
I remember carrying around the idea for this sculpture for two years, not knowing how to bring it to life. Since it feels like a modern icon to me, representing today's society oscillating between the remains of analogue reality and searching for a new belief, purpose, and belonging in a realm of digital uncertainty, I was scared and nervous someone else would come up with the idea as well, being able to produce it before me.
When I finally was able to carve the face and body, to fully create and release it, I was blown away by the world-wide recognition as an artist and coverage by international media outlets such as Hypebeast and HIGHSNOBIETY, followed up by exhibitions and AR-experiences.
That’s why today I’m proud to be able to release my first fine art print ever with the first artwork I started my career with. It feels like a new beginning, and I’m proud to share it." – Joachim Bosse
 OMG is for the believers. The ones who like. The ones who post, share, and comment.
The ones who share their running and yoga routine, their food, clothes, and vacation. Their birthdays and honeymoons, their workdays and club nights, their Sunday brunches and shopping trips.
OMG is for the selfie queens and dm kings. The soccer moms and the coffee-shop hipsters. The dudes and the bros. The sunset mamas and the bbq papas, the motivational coaches and the gym jocks.
OMG is for the followers.

24-HOUR EDITION DROP I KATHRIN WESSLING 25-26 MAY 2023 6-6 PM CEST 
Kathrin Wessling is a German author, artist, and social media expert. She has over 70,000 followers on Twitter and Instagram who follow her posts and articles on topics such as feminism, mental illness, and pop culture. Her latest books are "Nix passiert" and "Super, und dir?", the latter was hailed by the press and readers as "the novel of her generation". She also writes regularly for ZEIT ONLINE, SPIEGEL, and many more. She has worked for stern.de, DER SPIEGEL, Mit Vergnügen, and Storymachine, among others. Kathrin Wessling lives in Berlin.
ABOUT THE WORK "I paint my pictures in my small 1-room apartment. I could also say studio or apartment; people in Berlin find that more chic, but I prefer to stick to what it is. Just like with my paintings. I paint what is. I paint who I am. I paint what I am. I paint myself. YES and MAYBE were created after a breakup in 2022, when weekends and evenings were long and nights were dark. Painting saved my (pardon my French) ass. I painted when I was angry, when I was sad, which I was actually all the time, when I was lonely or alone, or when I was just bored. Painting evokes in me what people assume writing does for me: I lose myself completely in it; I am focused, calm, and happy. Painting is my free, wild garden after writing has become a cramped house. I can express with painting what I otherwise cannot. In this series, it is all my pain and all my anger. The paintings show all these emotions. But they also show the continuation, the non-giving up, when all you want to do is scream. I threw up my heart on the canvas until I could breathe again. They remind me that I carry a gift inside me. The gift of still being able to create something out of the greatest chaos, fear, and pain that makes other people feel something, that moves and cracks others up, pinches their sides a little, and says: no matter how bad it is right now, you're not alone in this."  – Kathrin Wessling

24-HOUR EDITION DROP I ISIS MARIA NIEDECKEN 4-5 MAY 2023 6-6 PM CEST 
Isis Maria Niedecken is a Berlin-based artist. Since graduating from her Bachelor in Fashion Design, she has worked in various areas of the fashion and design industries. Her paintings capture small moments of joy in contemporary snapshots. Inspired by the colorful apartment where she lives with her husband and son, her images portray everyday life while telling their own stories. Living with a three-year-old and experiencing the world through his eyes is an important source of inspiration. His perception and associations play a major role in her work. Isis Maria's goal is to find beauty in everyday moments and make them tangible for others.
ABOUT THE WORK "ABENDBROT is a colorful and vivid still life painted in acrylic on canvas. The painting captures a dinner with friends and their children. The bold colors and crowded composition underline the chaotic energy that emerges when there are kids involved at a dinner table. Inspired by my son's selective perception of details, I exaggerated proportions, played with perspective, and enhanced and left out details." – <meta charset="utf-8">Isis Maria Niedecken

24-HOUR EDITION DROP I CEVIN PARKER 27-28 APRIL 6 PM CET - 6 PM CET 
Cevin Parker is an artist based in Berlin who uses colour emotionally as a constantly evolving source of inspiration in his abstract paintings. Parker is self-taught, and creativity runs in his blood as an artist. As such, he reflects his subconscious, inspired by concepts of an impulsive vision or an unexpected muse. His paintings evoke bizarre notions of abstraction and the American colour field painters of the 1950s and 1960s. The basic idea of Gerhard Richter can also be found in some of his works.
ABOUT THE WORK "A dream is a complex mixture of memories and unprocessed experiences that represent both the good and the bad within us—both the positive and the negative. Each work of art symbolizes a dream, a moment, or an unprocessed experience and represents a feeling, be it love or anger, suffering or happiness. In our dreams, we lose ourselves in the shimmering colours of Dreamland. We dream of a better world, where the green of nature comes alive again and the blue of the sky is clear and unclouded. We dream of a loved one surrounded by the warm orange and bright yellow of the sun. And we dream of special, magical moments, when the violet of the night covers the sky and the pink of the dawn announces the new day. Dreamland invites us to let ourselves fall and lose ourselves in the colours of dreaming. This allows us to feel free in the here and now and create our own world full of colours and dreams." – Cevin Parker
INDIVIDUALISATION The artist is individualising each edition by completing the painted “line” of the print with acrylic paint - making each edition unique.

SOFTEST DREAM

24-HOUR EDITION DROP I CEVIN PARKER 27-28 APRIL 2023 6 PM CET - 6 PM CET 
Cevin Parker is an artist based in Berlin who uses colour emotionally as a constantly evolving source of inspiration in his abstract paintings. Parker is self-taught, and creativity runs in his blood as an artist. As such, he reflects his subconscious, inspired by concepts of an impulsive vision or an unexpected muse. His paintings evoke bizarre notions of abstraction and the American colour field painters of the 1950s and 1960s. The basic idea of Gerhard Richter can also be found in some of his works.
ABOUT THE WORK "A dream is a complex mixture of memories and unprocessed experiences that represent both the good and the bad within us—both the positive and the negative. Each work of art symbolizes a dream, a moment, or an unprocessed experience and represents a feeling, be it love or anger, suffering or happiness. In our dreams, we lose ourselves in the shimmering colours of Dreamland. We dream of a better world, where the green of nature comes alive again and the blue of the sky is clear and unclouded. We dream of a loved one surrounded by the warm orange and bright yellow of the sun. And we dream of special, magical moments when the violet of the night covers the sky and the pink of the dawn announces the new day. Dreamland invites us to let ourselves fall and lose ourselves in the colours of dreaming. This allows us to feel free in the here and now and create our own world full of colours and dreams." Cevin Parker

BUNDLE: CUTEST DREAM & SOFTEST DREAM

48-HOUR EDITION DROP I MATEUSZ VON MOTZ 29-31 MARCH 2023 6-6 PM CET 
Mateusz von Motz graduated from Juergen Teller's photography class in Nuremberg. He then finished his MA in sculpture at the Royal College of Art in London. While in London, he worked as a studio assistant at Juergen Teller Studio. As a young Polish artist, he has already established himself in the art world with a talent for brutal beauty. His practice often explores memories, space, and deconstruction themes and combines architectural and photographic elements. In his present practice, von Motz works across various mediums, including painting, sculpture, digital technology, and installation.
ABOUT THE WORK For his FUCK NORMAL I WANT MAGIC series, Mateusz von Motz combines text and images on mirrors. They have already become iconic.
This strategy refers, among other cultural backgrounds and phenomena, to the digital meme culture, which ties in with the popular genres and visual strategies of gaming, comics, and advertising. The artist mixes direct-address communication strategies with the mirror as a pictorial space, creating a multidimensional experience for the viewer. In this space, reality and virtuality blur together, and the subject is thrown back onto intimate, psychological levels of self-observation. Moments of introspection and transformation are presented in a multidimensional manner.
The artist incorporates Freudian (self) questioning and mythological narratives, such as that of Narcissus, to provide an ironic and empathetic commentary on an increasingly narcissistic society. This society is mirrored here in its collective numbing of the representations within social media. In this sense, von Motz ultimately confronts visitors with the choice of remaining in the dream world controlled by machines or being freed from the simulation. It is a social paradigm explored through everyday experiences and critical analysis.

ABOUT THE WORK "LOVE YOUR FUCKIN SELF is the essence of my life's philosophy. It’s a simple message that means the world. It’s the statement that brings you instantly to your core self. Instantly brings you integrity. A short and effective reminder of what is truly important in life. It's a unifying message for everyone—white, black, gay, or straight—that without self-love, we are nothing but monsters. Every person on earth needs to fucking love themselves. I dedicate this painting to every misfit, every weirdo, and every human."  – Vera Kochubey

Mystical Unicorn

24-HOUR EDITION DROP I ED BRONER 7 FEBRUARY - 8 FEBRUARY 2023 6-6 PM CET 
Ed Broner is a self-taught French artist born in Paris. He began painting in the late 1980s and was a member of the Parisian graffiti subculture before relocating to Berlin to focus on painting.
Ed Broner uses photos and canvases as his personal diary. Especially in his paintings, he highlights the beauty of realness and authenticity while at the same time honoring the ideas and symbols of modern urban subcultures. In his style, he combines influences from graffiti and contemporary painting as well as from Aboriginal and African art, thus opening a dialogue between "Western" and "non-Western" cultures. In reflecting on and often subversively ironizing current aesthetics, Ed Broner asks about the nature of humanity in a postmodern world. He has published the photo book "Vagabondage" (Hatje Cantz) and has exhibited his work in solo and group shows internationally, such as at the Palais de Tokyo (2010) and Kunstforeningen Det Ny Kastet (2021).
ABOUT THE WORK "The work CROCODILES ARE HUNTING emerged in 2020 during the first COVID lockdown. It reflects on the uncertainty of the world we are living in, in which everything can change from one day to another. It can be a dangerous place. The image depicts the jungle and paradise, demonstrating that the world can be the most beautiful but also the most dangerous place. We shouldn’t take anything for granted, but we should always have hope." – Ed Broner
ABOUT THE EDITION The artist individualizes each edition himself by adding elements to the print using acrylic markers, making each edition unique.

24-HOUR EDITION DROP I VRENI FROST 31 JANUARY - 1 FEBRUARY 2023 6-6 PM CET 
If you could only use one word to describe Vreni Frost, it would probably be: COLORFUL. The presenter, author, and speaker not only knows how to breathe life into words, she also brings paper and canvas to life. She made her debut as an artist in 2021 at the renowned HVW8 Art + Design Gallery (Berlin/Los Angeles) with her FACES series. This was followed in 2022 by, among other things, her first solo exhibition at Berlin Art Week, a charity auction at Christie's on the occasion of the Millerntor Gallery in Hamburg, and a collaboration with the chocolate manufacturer Sawade. Art and painting have accompanied Vreni since early childhood, especially body parts such as eyes, mouths, and hands, which constantly appear in her works. Even animals regularly find their place on the canvas.
ABOUT THE WORK CHAN(N)ELING MY INNER COCO is one of the first works from the CATSULE COLLECTION series. The CATSULE COLLECTION shows the undivided love for cats in combination with the love-hate relationship with fashion and the constant struggle with or against consumption to which the artist is exposed daily. Viewed differently, the images of the series are all also to be understood as self-portraits.

CHAN(N)ELING MY INNER COCO

24-HOUR EDITION DROP I KYTE TATT 26-27 JANUARY 2023 6-6 PM CET 
Kyte Tatt's current focus is his Gardens of Liberty collection, in which his raw and gestural marks and splashes of color can be described as part abstract, part impressionist, part rough, and part gentle. Look once and you find violent brushstrokes and broad movements; look again and you find poetry. His spectrum of media includes acrylic, house paint, charcoal, graphite, soft pastels, and even coffee. Kyte Tatt hopes to remind and reconnect the viewer to nature by showing its power and diversity in a strong yet delicate visual language.
ABOUT THE WORK "THE GARDENS OF LIBERTY collection is a series that I have been working on since 2019. Longing for the gardens I once created and dwelled in before moving to Berlin, this series has been my solace in the city. It is a sort of Shangri-La where the flowers are always in bloom and freedom reigns supreme. DEJLIG roughly translated from Danish, means delightful, lovely, beautiful, and delicious. Oversized abstract flowers beckon the viewer in. A delicate balance of chaos and order; expressive and energetic marks reflect nature's immediacy and power." <meta charset="utf-8">– Kyte Tatt

24-HOUR EDITION DROP I HORACIO QUIROZ 19-20 JANUARY 2023 6-6 PM CET 
Horacio Quiroz is a self-taught painter who lives and works in Mexico City. His practice focuses on oil painting and drawing. His work focuses on the exploration of polarity, inspired by the hermetic philosophy texts of The Kybalion and Carl Jung. "Everything in our universe has a dual manifestation. This is so obvious that we take it for granted. The truth is that absolutely everything that exists consists of the duality of opposing forces. As part of the cosmos, human beings are no exception since they are made of spirit and matter. My work is a dialogue between these apparently conflicting forces. It explores the human condition, gender, identity, and the relationship between bodies and their environment through colors, textures, and matter that give shape to corporeal volumes, revealing a fantasy world closely tied to my daily psychological processes." – Horacio Quiroz
ABOUT THE WORK The representation of an everyday moment and the sacredness of its unrepeatability in a life that navigates between the absurd and the essential, between transcendence and impermanence, When beauty originates from fractures and how we rebuild ourselves from them to generate new strategies,

Katie Benn is a multidisciplinary artist from San Francisco. Although her roots are in the Bay Area, since late 2020, she has set up her home and art studio in Southern Oregon. Inspired by all things goofy and mysterious, her personal dreamwork, and the general absurdity of being alive, she explores themes relating to the human condition and her inner world.
ABOUT THE WORK "AD ASTRA PER ASPERA, an old saying in Latin meaning 'To the stars, through difficulties,' is the text within my piece, as is the title. Employing free association, oil pastel, and graphite on paper, this is a portrait of a person finding their true north and moving in the direction of their highest desires despite the challenges of Earth, its gravity, and the fear of the unknown. I believe that following one's inner path, which may appear confusing or foolish to others, is the loveliest way to be alive." – Katie Benn

24-HOUR EDITION DROP I JACK WINTHROP 15-16 DECEMBER 2022 6 PM CET - 6 PM CET
Jack Winthrop is an accomplished artist from Minneapolis, Minnesota (born July 26th, 1989) who recently moved to Los Angeles after living and working in New York City for a decade. When he was developing his style as a child, drawing and creating were like breathing. Almost involuntary. Winthrop’s curiosity drove him and his diligence to create new things on a daily basis.
 Winthrop mostly paints large-scale paintings on canvas. Manoeuvring between an eclectic range of styles and subjects, he challenges the conventional and explores the boundaries between fine art and subculture or street culture. By breaking down the human form, he creates work appealing like a mirror that transcends the filter we perceive as ourselves.
ABOUT THE WORK PEACE arose from the techniques Jack Winthrop learned from drawing, painting, and creating throughout his life by dissecting and dissolving them through abstraction. Winthrop deploys refined and sophisticated judgments through form, color, composition, balance, tension, and aesthetic, which he attributes to his education in the field of design. Peace is the translation and transformation of the artist’s engrossment towards the human condition, which he visualizes in his works.
ABOUT THE EDITION The artist signs and hand-finishes each edition by adding a surprise-drawing to his signature.

Yesterday's Feelings

IN FAIL WE TRUST by David Pher is a tribute to society and politics of today, which must fail thoroughly first as it seems to get back on a straight and peaceful path. 
BIO David Pher is an abstract painter based in Berlin. Growing up in a house full of art in the 1980s in the middle of Germany, he fell in love with intense colors and abstract painting early on in his life. His eclectic pieces present vivid compositions of intense color, sharp contrasts, and daring compositions while often opening windows into dream worlds, where preternatural beings lay in wait for a beholder to interpret their mysteries. Emerging from an interplay of intention and craftsmanship with spontaneity and chance, his artworks often feature scrawlings of cryptic language and integrate subtle interactions between darker elements and an arresting levity of evocative colors.
ABOUT THE EDITION The artist individualizes each edition by adding acrylic paint elements, making each work unique.

In Fail We Trust

"We are all on our own unique journey. The lines that are flowing through the painting are like roads, and every crossover stands for a special happening in your life. A special feeling, a dream, or a memory—you choose. 
ONE STEP FURTHER THERE IS A NEW HORIZON is about all the possibilities in life and the potential that lies in front of you. The desire to follow your true purpose. It’s about new beginnings while leaving something behind that maybe wasn’t meant to be. Keep going and trust the process on your way to new horizons.
With my work, I always try to create an outer framework for the following inner play of thoughts. By combining abstract art and text art, I invite the viewers to identify themselves with my work individually and connect their own story to it. My main goal is to convey a good, empowering feeling as well as get in touch with the subconscious mind. Art is my purpose; it’s my way to express myself, to enter into dialogue, to evoke emotions, and to bring people together. – Pepi Erdbories

One Step Further There Is a New Horizon

"This is one of my favorite works to date. I wanted to shape a mysterious, ineffable sense of falling through an abstract and blurred figurative environment, driven by emotionally overwhelming and profound memories, like an emotional story that everyone has experienced. And how each of us, as individuals, controls our sensual power. I try to use different textures to distinguish the front and rear relationships and to satisfy the overall compositional relationship in the picture. "Finding balance in imbalance and retaining calm in dynamics" is the height of content and technique I want to achieve in this work." – Ruohan Wang

The Bait

"This artwork is about LOVE FOR YOURSELF, a dream of self-love and striving for loved moments. Rose stands for the softness that every person carries within themselves, even if this often remains hidden behind high walls. The colorful mix of acrylic colors stands for the variety of feelings we carry within us, as well as the variety of different types of love. The arrangement of the acrylic paint shows the unfolding of love, which often comes to light in an explosive manner." – Cevin Parker
In dreaming, we lose ourselves. We may be dreaming of a better world, a loved one, or a special magical moment. We experience beautiful or joyful things, but we live exactly to show what is valuable, important, and special to us. We show that we should and must draw positives from negatives. Dreamland invites you to dream; you can let yourself fall and feel free in the here and now. This attitude reflects not only my art but also my own lifestyle. When you fall, get up and thank yourself for the good moments, and the bad moments will be nonexistent.
ABOUT THE EDITION The artist is individualising each edition by completing the painted “line” of the print with acrylic paint, making each edition unique.
As an additional extra to Cevin Parker's edition of LOVELY DREAM, each print comes with an exclusive AR function that allows the motif to be experienced as a digital sculpture in space.

Lovely Dream

"My Instagram feed is usually filled with posts of people taking photos in front of art; almost all have some corny inspirational, pseudo-intellectual, or motivational caption. Look at some of these people's profiles. You'll find hundreds, if not thousands, of photos of them standing in front of other people's art and making weird faces as if they knew something about what they're looking at. In all honesty, I have nothing against them, but they annoy the living hell out of me. This piece is a reflection of it." – CB Hoyo

"Throughout text art, I find the path to developing my own artistic voice and understanding of life. In my work, I capture and satirize contemporary society's essence and address topics that are usually thought of by many but spoken by a few. Exploring humanity's thoughts and behaviors is an integral part of my work process. These explorations constitute my prolific and reflexive network of allegories to the new bizarre normality we live in. All of them are proposed from a very personal perspective, marked by my own experiences and observations of the human condition." – CB Hoyo

"To me, this painting is a playful reminder to seize the day and to make something cool and creative. The storm in the background is like a tailwind. The girl in the image looks like she is on the fast lane anyway. The tattoo that is added to each edition is something that I actually do each day when I come to the studio: I draw a cross in my sketch book. It is like meditation and helps me focus on the creative work." – Pascal Möhlmann The Dutch painter Pascal Möhlmann adores Van Dyck and collaborates with Virgil Abloh. He calls his style New Beauty with Punk Rock Attitude because he turns away from cynicism and irony. "I learned a language from the old masters and brought it into the present. I paint what is now," Möhlmann says. ABOUT THE EDITION Each edition is individualized by the artist himself by hand painting the girl's arm tattoo and the cross individually on each print.

Faster, 2022

The work TIME by Paul Schrader follows on from the large-scale works LIGHT and TOO MUCH CANDY from 2020 and is composed primarily of the colors yellow and red. The background consisting of spray paint is reminiscent of the graffiti of the early 90s. Like an infinito, the paint application on the right side is partially hidden by the background again, so the background suddenly comes to the foreground, especially at the edges of the color. The fine color nuances merge at closer look into delicate tones like poetry. Out of yellow and red a delicate orange tone emerges in hundreds of shades. The red and white blend into a berry hue. Through the interlocking of the individual colors create a rush like a melody in music.
"I love the sensual approach to art, the worlds of color and their composition on the canvas. Although the moment of movement has long since passed, the movement has an effect right into the now and yet is frozen on the canvas, in a time capsule. Fine nuances of color merge on closer inspection into delicate Tonë like poetry. From yellow and blue, for example, a delicate shade of green can emerge in hundreds of nuances. Red and blue can blend into an intense violet. These intermediate areas fascinate me. Through the interlocking of the individual colors and their composition on the canvas creates an intoxication like a melody in music.
Colors and shapes can create a feeling in the viewer like magic. And through the view, a relationship is created for a moment between the work of art and the viewer, detached from theories and reality, for the one moment a feeling arises, which may change the viewer."  – Paul Schrader

<h3>About the Work</h3>
"'The secret to success' is the title of my bodybuilder painting. Bodybuilding is a subject I have made fun of since I was a kid. I never understood why anyone would spend so much time lifting weights to compete with other people to see who had the nicest body. It always seemed so pointless to me. But at some stage, I saw it differently: what inspired me was their determination and perseverance shaping their body. In order to keep their body in shape, they are repeating the same thing every day – lifting weights. What I find interesting in painting these muscular bodies is how our human mind sees those bodies and what we associate with them. Even the ancient Greeks had statues of their best athletes with very muscular bodies that represented success, fame and respect. When I saw bodybuilders as a kid, I had the impression: 'wow, those guys are so big and strong, they must be as strong as superheroes.' Besides that, my bodybuilder images have certain humor that I like to incorporate into my work. I still think bodybuilding is something pretty pointless – even boring. Oiled-up guys and girls compete to see who has nicer and bigger muscles. But since I have been using airbrush, I find it super fun and interesting to paint these shiny, oiled-up, muscular bodies. Determination, perseverance and hard work is the bodybuilder's 'secret to success'.

<h3>About the Work</h3>
Original Text in German: Dumet malt hauptsächlich mit Öl auf Leinwand, verwendet aber auch andere Techniken wie Gouache-bemaltes Papier, das auf die Leinwand geklebt wird. Sie ist dafür bekannt, impulsiv zu malen, mit einem starken Gefühl für Fluss und ohne Zwang. Das Ergebnis ist eine erhabene, faszinierende Verwendung von Farbe und abstrakter Form, die ständig mit der Figuration interagiert. Anstatt sich nur auf Details zu konzentrieren, schafft sie eine minimalistische Darstellung dessen, was sie sieht, und versteht das Thema, ohne zu versuchen Formen über Farben zu korrigieren. Ihre Motive wie Essen, Tiere, Landschaften und Porträts sind zeitgenössisch, aber zeitlos. Obwohl die Auflage eine unbestimmte Anzahl von Exemplaren erreichen kann, verleiht Dumet jedem Druck einen einzigartigen Charakter indem sie es handsigniert und mit individuellen Details versieht. Gleichzeitig mit den eingehenden Bestellungen bemalt und signiert sie jede der Editionen und schafft so eine Performance. Die Edition basiert auf Dumets Werkreihe LES PETITS OBJETS DU DÉSIR (englisch: SMALL OBJECTS OF DESIRE). In Anlehnung an den französischen Ausdruck „se retrouver autour d‘une bonne bouteille“ (sich zu treffen bei einer guten Flasche) dient eine Flasche Alkohol als Ausgangspunkt für die Arbeiten aus der Serie. Für Dumet werden solche geselligen Zusammenkünfte immer von einem guten Wein oder einem Kaffee und einer Zigarette begleitet – ihre persönlichen „Objekte der Begierde“.

MORE FROM THIS ARTIST

"The line is extremely intriguing to me. Actually, rock paintings are where art begins. The line is straightforward. There is a beginning and an end point. What occurs in the meantime is entirely up to chance. I assert that there is a line universe. It's a distinct, limitless universe." – Hans Dehlinger 
 ABOUT PLOTTER DRAWINGS Plotter drawings are line drawings. A mechanical drawing machine, the plotter, is controlled and driven by a computer program. The drawing pen clamped into the machine moves across the paper and draws, almost like a mechanical hand. Simply put, this hand responds to three commands: lift the pen, place the pen on the paper, and move the pen. When the move pen command meets the pen is down situation, a stroke is created.

Known as a universal genius, Herbert W. Franke (1927-2022) is the forefather of computer art, co-founder of Ars Electronica, mastermind of the Metaverse, and science-fiction writer. He spent his entire career bridging the worlds of art and science.
EXPANDED.ART represents the estate of Herbert W. Franke. 
ABOUT MATH ART In 1980, Herbert W. Franke began a fifteen-year collaboration with programmer Horst Helbig at the German Aerospace Center. Together, they studied mathematical disciplines in relation to aesthetics. The series MATH ART is the output of their research at the intersection of science and art. It reveals a universe of numbers transformed into images through a variety of shapes and colors reminiscent of Pop Art. 
Throughout his entire life, Herbert W. Franke used mathematical principles for art experimentation. From the very beginning, it was clear to him that it is the artist's mission to examine new technologies and their social significance through the lens of their creative potential. For Herbert W. Franke mathematics are the essence of visual arts. While he saw the artist as an analytical maker using mathematics to create structures, he assigned the computer the task of modulating these principles of order through varying random processes. Franke, therefore, considered the computer as a creative partner for the artist very early on.
The color served to code certain structural elements and was of fundamental importance. The computer system at DLR in Oberpfaffenhofen, which was powerful at the time, had integrated output equipment with which the digitally developed image worlds were transferred directly to high-resolution photo film. On his own DOS PC, Franke created the preparatory work for the captivatingly vivid aesthetics of this mathematical investigation.
In the beginning, there were algebraic formulas for three-dimensional spatial areas: The three dimensions were converted into two-dimensional landscapes, whereby the "contour lines," i.e., the z-axis of the room, were color-coded with specially developed color grids. Starting with algebraic landscapes, the two worked their way through a wide variety of disciplines via wave functions, Fourier transformations, broken dimensions, and logical connections, until they finally visualized complex and irrational numbers as well as random processes and logical connections with their method.

DRAKULA stands for Dragon Curves Superimposed (German: Drachenkurven überlagert). The dragon curve is a fractal object. The basic idea was first explored by NASA physicists John Heighway, Bruce Banks, and William Harter and described by Martin Gardner in his 1967 Mathematical Games column in Scientific American. However, the mathematical theory for this was not developed until 1970 by the mathematician Chandler Davis and the computer scientist Donald Knuth.

Dragon curves are created by sequences of left and right turns according to certain rules. The program allows dragon curves of different orders – or sections of them – to be lined up and superimposed. Left and right turns were not only represented in the usual way by right-angled bends but also by mathematically defined elements, such as triangles or curved sections of curves with multiple curves. These elements were designed in such a way that when they are superimposed, clearly recognizable new form elements are created through overlaps and attachments. The superimposition of closed curves in different colors is particularly attractive. The dragon curves were also interesting for Franke as an object of experimental aesthetics and for his studies on information psychology, since here the rare case of an easy possibility of specifying their statistical information (complexity) occurs; this is equal to the number of 0,1 indications used to construct it.

Franke also overlaid dragon curves – mostly mirrored – and not only used straight lines as individual elements but also other shapes, such as semicircles or triangles, as basic elements.

The pictures of DRAKULA were made with a Siemens System 4004. The Fortran program was written by Peter Henne from the Gesellschaft für Datenverarbeitung GMD according to detailed specifications from Franke. The plots were realized by Peter Vordermaier at Siemens AG. A complete printout of the program is available.

Herbert W. Franke is a universal genius, you can say that with a clear conscience. For several decades he separated three lives: he was the caver and scientist, the artist and curator, the art theorist and the science fiction author. Only on the occasion his solo exhibition in 2010 at the ZKM Karlsruhe did he bring these three lives and careers together under the title "Wanderer Between the Worlds". In the early 1950s caving led him to experiment with light and technology. He kept his curiosity throughout his life; it was his drive to examine new technologies for their artistic potential. His pioneering spirit made him one of the first computer artists who was more than six decades ahead of his time. Franke discussed his visionary practice with Anika Meier in June 2022.

INTERVIEW WITH HERBERT W. FRANKE

"TECHNOLOGY IS NOT A THREAT TO ART"

"Many of the early pioneers did not dare call their work art and instead categorized it as design. But I just had nothing to lose. And I was also convinced that I was on the right track of knowledge." – Herbert W Franke

GOLD FUTURES by James Bloom (Crashblossom) are three distinct digital visions presented in a physical paper format. Each one provides a different flavour of digital enticement. They contain glimpses of figurative scenes, but with digital iconography mixed in. They are flat yet also 3-dimensional. They are abstracted from reality but have a vivid presence. These printed images assert their digitalness.
Like the dynamic blockchain art series GOLD they derive from, the artworks have bright and optimistic palettes, reflecting how the digital world is often presented to attract us. They are composed from web clipart libraries, common 2D icons used in interface design or corporate presentations. This imagery is extruded into 3D, saved out as flat 2D again, then composed together on-the-fly with dynamic code, which also introduces randomness. Single snapshots in time are chosen by the artist.
With GOLD FUTURES, the artist explores how digital media present an optimistic vision to entice us to engage. But he is not negative about technology, instead asserting its importance to art in an age where we are surrounded by the digital. Bloom believes the digital and physical are simply the same thing—the world itself—expressed through different modes of representation.

"I am a writer. As students, we ran the first print peer-reviewed magazine for the history of art. It later turned into a blog. We won prizes.
Social media killed art criticism.
Readers mainly respond to headlines and quotes on social media. At best, it‘s a lively exchange of thoughts, experiences, knowledge, and opinions.
In 2022, I started tweeting thoughts and questions that, in a different world, I would have turned more often into texts.
As a writer would do, I now present these thoughts and questions, written by hand on a beautiful piece of paper.
The first 5 editions of "tweets from twitter" are the tweets from myself that got the most responses and, at the same time, are a document of a moment in history: the age of Post-NFTism.
Signed. Anika Meier

A CHILD’S MACHIAVELLI by Claudia Hart was initially written and illustrated by the artist in 1995, inspired by Niccolo Machiavelli’s Renaissance treatise, THE PRINCE, the first book of political philosophy. Hart’s version began as a series of oil paintings and a small catalog, produced by the Realismus Studio, at the Neue Gesellschaft für Bildende Kunst, Berlin in 1995.
The catalog was eventually released as an expanded hardcover by Penguin USA in 1998, along with German and French editions.
While keeping to the meaning of the original, Hart rewrote THE PRINCE, reflecting street values and the voice of youth culture, as if Machiavelli’s book, meant to advise kings on seizing power, was a primer to teach good manners to small children.
"We are obviously in a period of cultural crisis, with the world slipping into autocracies, war in the Ukraine, and democracy dramatically destabilized in the USA. Social media is used to spread misinformation and engender fear and terror in order to manipulate the populace.
The little mottos that I wrote in the early nineties are more relevant now than ever. They seem to be pointedly directed at the cultural and political world of today. Yet when I wrote them, I felt that I was translating Machiavelli’s early 16th-century text into the politics of that time."

CLAUDIA HART | A CHILD'S MACHIAVELLI | EDITIONS

A CHILD’S MACHIAVELLI: THE BEGINNING A CHILD’S MACHIAVELLI was initially written and illustrated by Claudia Hart in 1995. It was inspired by Niccolo Machiavelli’s Renaissance treatise, THE PRINCE, the first book of political philosophy. Hart’s version began as a series of oil paintings and a small catalog, produced by the Realismus Studio at the Neue Gesellschaft für Bildende Kunst, Berlin.
A CHILD'S MACHIAVELLI: THE BOOK In the bookstore of NGBK, Hart fell in love with Comix, a back then radical form of comic books that filled one of their shelves. She read them, fascinated. There was no such thing as a graphic novel in those days. MAUS by Art Spiegelman, the Comix masterpiece, had just been released. Hart would stand around the NGBK bookstore, reading MAUS and other related works.
"I was a figurative artist interested in historical paintings, not comic books. Nevertheless, I was inspired," Hart says.
Her response was A CHILD'S MACHIAVELLI, born as a series of 31 oil paintings, where she rewrote the Renaissance treatise by Niccolo Machiavelli as a children’s book, speaking in the youth-speak of her time. She was reflecting on the real estate and cultural war taking place in the early 1990s in Berlin. Her aphorisms focused on the workings of power. But the strategy was the same as for all of the other works she has produced since the beginning: text combined with images. It is a series of aphorisms in an illustrated book that does not need to be read in order. Each painting was a unique piece that could be combined in any order. The book has proven prescient, prefiguring the brutal tenor of contemporary US public discourse.
WORLDWIDE RECOGNITION The catalog was eventually released as an expanded hardcover by Penguin Edition USA in 1998. In addition, there was a Nautilus Edition German version published in 1996, and an Abbeville Press French edition published in 1998. At that time, Hart reinterpreted the oil paintings to produce the series of gouache paintings on paper exhibited at EXPANDED.ART.
Hart’s approach was typical of the 1990s art world. Mimicking the visuals of a picture book, she appropriated 1920s children’s illustrations known for their sugary sweetness. The irony and twisted humor of A CHILD’S MACHIAVELLI are derived from its combination of opposites: the saccharine speech of kid’s books and the unvarnished reality of American politics. The book went out of print in 2000 but continues to be traded on the second-hand book market.
In 2019, Beatrice Books, a small experimental publisher, reissued A CHILD’S MACHIAVELLI as a more contemporary book. At that time, Hart discovered among her files a series of Flash animations created for an ebook, the early 21st-century digital format that had long since disappeared, initiated by the production company Flicker Labs in 2010.

"I was a figurative artist interested in historical paintings, not comic books. Nevertheless, I was inspired," Hart says.
Her response was A CHILD'S MACHIAVELLI, born as a series of 31 oil paintings, where she rewrote the Renaissance treatise by Niccolo Machiavelli as a children’s book, speaking in the youth-speak of her time. She was reflecting on the real estate and cultural war taking place in the early 1990s in Berlin. Her aphorisms focused on the workings of power. But the strategy was the same as for all of the other works she has produced since the beginning: text combined with images. It is a series of aphorisms in an illustrated book that does not need to be read in order. Each painting was a unique piece that could be combined in any order. The book has proven prescient, prefiguring the brutal tenor of contemporary US public discourse.
WORLDWIDE RECOGNITION The catalog was eventually released as an expanded hardcover by Penguin Edition USA in 1998. In addition, there was a Nautilus Edition German version published in 1996, and an Abbeville Press French edition published in 1998. At that time, Hart reinterpreted the oil paintings to produce the series of gouache paintings on paper exhibited at EXPANDED.ART.
Hart’s approach was typical of the 1990s art world. Mimicking the visuals of a picture book, she appropriated 1920s children’s illustrations known for their sugary sweetness. The irony and twisted humor of A CHILD’S MACHIAVELLI are derived from its combination of opposites: the saccharine speech of kid’s books and the unvarnished reality of American politics. The book went out of print in 2000 but continues to be traded on the second-hand book market.
In 2019, Beatrice Books, a small experimental publisher, reissued A CHILD’S MACHIAVELLI as a more contemporary book. At that time, Hart discovered among her files a series of Flash animations created for an ebook, the early 21st-century digital format that had long since disappeared, initiated by the production company Flicker Labs in 2010.
CLAUDIA HART ABOUT A CHILD’S MACHIAVELLI "We are obviously in a period of cultural crisis, with the world slipping into autocracies, war in the Ukraine, and democracy dramatically destabilized in the USA. Social media is used to spread misinformation and engender fear and terror in order to manipulate the populace.
The little mottos that I wrote in the early nineties are more relevant now than ever. They seem to be pointedly directed at the cultural and political world of today. Yet when I wrote them, I felt that I was translating Machiavelli’s early 16th-century text into the politics of that time."
– Claudia Hart, June 2023

LIMITED EDITION: MANUELL ROSSNER | PLOTTER DRAWINGS

In celebration of youth culture and coming-of-age tropes, "NO, DON'T DISAPPEAR [WM-2]" from Skye Nicolas' Walkman series elevates portable music devices such as the Sony Walkman as cerebral or dematerialized readymades: conceptual digital representations of physical objects contextualized as digital artifacts containing data.
The series typifies Nicolas<meta charset="utf-8">' pixel paintings in which remixed images are reduced to their essential structure, the outline. Graphic elements are streamlined into nebulous shimmering pixels that dance across the contrasting dark background of the digital canvas. Declarative statements glide across the screen (often lifted from 1980’s and 1990’s era song lyrics), serve as both internal dialogue and a crucial visual detail to complete the digital painting’s overall composition. The result of this process of reduction and layered storytelling is a visually poetic distillation in which the viewer finds themselves occupying; an intangible dreamscape atmosphere arousing an induced nostalgia that seduces and captivates the senses.

Collectors purchase the physical edition on EXPANDED.ART. The artist mints the NFT on Tezos and sends it via Airdrop to the collector’s wallet.

STELLA NOVA by JULIEN ESPAGNON is a generative curated project. It's the result of much research and variations of a plastic exploration of an event: the Supernovas. This series is based on the principle of cutting and splitting shapes, allowing the discovery of the different phases of the death of a star. The result is an abstract visual interpretation of the chaos coming from the explosion. It is after many explorations—first focused on the figurative and organic aspect of the result, followed by the abstraction of the form by its geometrization—that this work progresses around colors in order to reflect the luminosity of this event.

Stella Nova

As far as images of femininity and debates about beauty ideals are concerned, Swedish artist Arvida Byström is one of the leading voices on social media and beyond. Using selfie sticks and fruit in underwear, she updates the genres of portrait and still life for the 21st century with Internet culture in mind. Her visual language is cute and girlish, and she employs the color pink as a symbol of femininity without irony. Technology has always been present in Byström’s works, in the form of smartphones and laptops. She speaks to a generation of people who pick up their smartphones first thing in the morning and only put them down when they are about to shut their eyes at night. Does technology rule over us and our bodies, or are we the ones who rule over technology?

BLOODY BLOOD ORANGES is a photograph from Margaret Murphy’s series “I Could Look at You All Day", made in 2020. The project consists of self-portraits and still lives made in Murphy’s home. The pictures visualize her interest in self-perception, consider the male gaze and play amongst social media’s influence on contemporary photography.
John Berger writes in WAYS OF SEEING, that a woman must simultaneously be both "the surveyor" and “the surveyed” because how she appears to those outside herself is critical to her success in life. Murphy’s photographs ask how this concept—and internalized misogyny—shapes the way we understand ourselves in the world. The companionship of still lives and portraiture in the project invites the viewer to survey moments of intimacy, reflection, disgust, celebration, and ambivalence within the world of Murphy's creation: a woman in flux between the standards set before her and the standards that she inherently feels exist within her.

IN THIS MOMENT is a painting about mystery and stillness. The spark painted alternately on the earring or snake ring suggests a secretive world of feelings and thoughts of the mystery heroin portrayed.  Open to interpretation, it is an invitation to float beyond what is seen, and imagine the unknown. Because who doesn’t love a good secret?
