HARALD NAEGELI - DRAWINGS BY A SPRAYER

Harald Naegeli's visual world is multifaceted. The graffiti pioneer became world-famous for his characteristically bold, urban spray figures. These can be seen in the Bilker Bunker in photographs from the 1980s onwards. The exhibition also reveals a rather unknown side of the “Sprayer of Zurich”. Closely interwoven with his figures in public space, but less prominent to date, are Naegeli's delicate, delicate drawings. Often created in fleeting moments, the artist liked to give his observations of nature and animal drawings as gifts to his companions.

For the first time, a selection from institutions and private collections in Düsseldorf can be discovered within an exhibition and linked to the spray figures.

Behind the meter-thick concrete walls, the “Bilker Bunker” opens up a free space for creative expression and social exchange. As a non-profit cultural institution, the “Bilker Bunker” is independent, lively, interactive and open to all. In addition to art exhibitions and the “Schleuse Zwei” music bar, it offers space for culture, music, sport, fashion and innovative concepts on a total of seven floors. All income generated - including from bookings of multi-spaces and the bicycle garage - flows directly into the art and culture business so that it can support itself in the future.
