My painting “Indrid and Apol” is a snapshot of a story about two girls who live on a temporary moon planet while earth is undergoing the Restoration. They are little volunteers working with the genetic Ark lab incubating rescued species to repopulate the ecosystem once return to Earth is safe. Indrids mother gave her a precious sample of dire wolf dna and Indrid cloned her wolf Sabre all by herself. She and Apol ride Sabre between the cryogenic facility and the lab on the moon. They courier the incubating gene pods and sneak into the lab to watch new species hatch 💕🌏🌔✨☄️This piece will be on display at @urbannationberlin for @beautifulbizarremagazine’s upcoming “Gaia Reborn” exhibit opening May 11th in Berlin. #gaiareborn #urbannationberlin #beautifulbizarremagazine #mabgraves #direwolf #nephilim #oilpainting https://www.instagram.com/p/Bw8Z4qIBbnH/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ailfmfn95tug

It’s really hard to believe that I never posted this beauty by @fanakapan that he painted for @urbannation_berlin in March, especially since @bkstreetart wrote such a wonderful blog post about it: http://bit.ly/BSA-Fanny But well, as you know, I mostly have family on my head this year. Fanakapan paid tribute to his furry family with this wall.

Urban Nation Museum

It was a bit hard to find information on the Urban Nation Museum for Contemporary Art. A lot of the websites I found were in German. However, I was able to find that the project was started in 2016 with the museum opening in 2017. The architecture of the building plays into the exhibit itself with the exterior walls painted with full murals. One website said the museum is unique because the art is displayed on the architecture. This goes with the theme McClellan and Lindaur talked about with how architecture is a factor of museum visits and it affects the visitors perspective on the items in the museum. The surrounding neighbourhood also appears to be part of the museum as the area became a safe haven for street artists. The One Wall Project from the museum also can be seen on the surrounding buildings. The interior of the building is also unique. It was a house that had most of its separating walls removed. This way art can be displayed in a mostly unobstructed way. It feels like a modern space and the open walkways invite visitors to look up and look at art from different perspectives.

This institution also calls itself a museum, not a gallery, which was some language our group discussed. It feels like a modern art museum with pieces displayed all over, but it has some elements of a traditional museum; it has security guards and wall text explaining larger movements of urban art. The space reminds me a bit of the East Side Gallery. A lot of the art is commissioned like that gallery and it has a similar urban feel. This answered my own question that I asked the group: is the Urban Gallery more like Shoreditch or the East Side Gallery?

While there, I was interested in how gender played into the exhibits. This was due to one of the first pieces I looked at being by a female artist and a commentary on gender. The one that sparked my interest in this subject was by Miss Van showing two women in masks. The text about that piece ended with the quote, “empowering women in a society and an art world dominated by men.” That’s what drew my attention to look for female art. One of the texts in the museum also said that urban art has mostly been a male art form. I tried to pay special attention to how women were shown after that. There were more portrayals of women both by female and male artists. Many of the pieces by female artists were about the portrayal of women or trying to empower them, however most of the art in the museum was still done by male artists.

I did a painting of the Dequindre Cut a few years back. It is now part of the permanent collection at the Urban Nation Museum for Urban Contemporary Art in Berlin. It’s currently on view, if you’re in the area, go say hello! The Dequindre Cut, in Detroit is much changed these days. I prefer to remember it this way though, wild and green. I have one Artist Proof left from a print run I did of this painting, with 1xrun a few years back, DM if you’re interested. #urbannationberlin #detroit #dequindrecut #stephaniebuer #oilpainting #berlin #1xrun #thinkspacegallery (at ACTION) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrgYfhSBvKV/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1eex0k7d2ht2m

Multimedia Journal 6:

One thing on this trip that we had to define for ourselves was street art. For me I decided street art is reliant on the street and is the artists making a personal statement. I do not feel commissioned art fits into that definition so personally I made the distinction between street art and urban art.

Street art from Berlin.

Commissioned urban art from the Urban Nation Museum in Berlin.
