Pøbel

Verlaten en desolaat, staat deze woning op nog geen honderd meter van het strand. Graffiti verheven tot kunst door kunstenaar 'Pøbel'. Helaas begon het te sneeuwen, dus snel weer de auto in met mijn camera. Wikipaedia: Pøbel (East Norwegian pronunciation: [pœːbeːɭ], meaning hooligan) is a pseudonymous Norwegian street artist based in Stavanger. He is best known for the Getto spedalsk (Ghetto leperous) project, decorating abandoned buildings in at the Lofoten islands in the north of Norway, along with notable collaborator "Dolk".[1] Both were later commissioned to decorate the central railway stations in both Oslo and Trondheim.[2] One of Norway's foremost street artists, his work all over Europe has been documented in a number of books on the subject.[3][4] His stencil paintings are mostly sight gags. One series, for example, portrays superheroes such as Superman and Batman in decrepit old age. His age and real name is not officially known. In July 2012 Pøbel curated the street art event Komafest in Vardø, Norway, where international street artists participated to decorate a fishing community heavily hit by depopulation.
