alex diamond is an artist who apparently lives solely through the art he creates - and vice versa. he plays mind tricks with visual aids, pleasing at one moment, disturbing in the next. independent from styles and techniques, he mirrors life and our constant fight for possession, superiority, survival and love in an almost nonchalant way.

> 09.2005: casey mckee
McKee’s process is a combination of photography and painting. First creating the photograph, then printing it onto the surface (canvas, wood panel, hand-made paper, etc.) by use of a photographic emulsion. McKee spends the majority of time working with oil paint to bring out the desired expression in his works. To experience the works in person is to realize the depth, layers and subtlety created with the oil paint married to the photographic emulsion. The final work is neither a photograph, nor a painting, but something directly in between with the qualities of both.

Nina Braun has successfully merged a background in fine arts with the „real world“, using her experience in skateboard-fashion and the tough business demands of the market for young labels for her distinct conversion of todays values and trends into artistic statements. Not being fully (but partly) trained at an Institute for Fine Arts has helped Nina becoming the complete artist she is today: focused on the highly actual topics she choses for her works, determined, passionate and trained in the skills not usually being part of traditional studies and at the same time being an expert painter, illustrator and craftswoman.
