The cities of this world furnish an inexhaustible number of impressions and images. Artist Detlef Waschkau has made the city into his subject - as a resident, flaneur and traveller - and placed it centrally in his artistic oeuvre. His works, which oscillate between sculpture and painting, are the result of numerous painterly and sculptural stages that mesh together like cogs during the production process. The title "Urban Vibes" is almost symbolic of timeless vibrations and transformations in urban space. The city turns into a powerhouse of emotions and an anchor point for the people hurrying through its streets. Waschkau's works offer completely new views of seemingly familiar places, seeing them with totally fresh eyes: as sublime, poetic and incredibly delicate. The city as a stage for unexpected constellations - a "Symphony of the big city" Exhibition: Urban Vibes. Detlef Waschkau, Kunstraum Villa Friede, Bonn, 08.October until 05. November 2022
