Graffiti meets Cars: “Wash Me” Book

At the beginning of the year, I wrote an article about the creative celebration of Mini’s 50th birthday. The car-manufacturer invited ten well-known artists, including urban artists like Seak One, Tika and Smash137 to repaint some of their cars. Some days ago, I received a package from BMW Switzerland (the owner of Mini) with some of the corresponding “Wash Me” books in it! For that reason, I will give away three of these books to you today! All you have to do is to twitter a link to this article up to and including January 22nd, 8pm. Please, don’t forget to mention me (@berlinpiraten), otherwise I’m not able to find out who participates and who not… Tomorrow evening I will randomly decide three of you who will get the books for free. ...

While I was in Paris some days ago, I was able to take some shots of Seak One’s blackbook! As you can see on the photos, he explains the development of some of his recent artworks.

In addition to the graffiti artists Seak One from Cologne and Sozy One from Brussels, the writer JonOne 156 from Paris and Zedz from Amsterdam will duly bring the railway line on stream by painting 4 whole-trains within three hours. Of course I will try to photographically document this graffiti event. But before the live performance will start tomorrow, I will meet the authors of the “Paris Street Art” book, Romuald Stivine and Vito today. They will instruct me a little in the Parisian urban art culture. ...
