Wildstyle Presents: ABSTRAKT
On the 25th of January, Wildstyle is proud to present three outstanding Nordic artist within the street-art movement. This exhibition focuses on showcasing the bridge between abstract art and street-art that breaks boundaries where colors, forms, and raw emotions collide to tell untold stories of the street.
The exhibition begins at midday where you will meet the vibrant art world of Ollio [GBG], a mainstay in the Swedish art scene who specializes in large motifs featuring playful uses of color and shapes mostly on tufted carpets and murals.
The second featured artist is no other than Henrik Hau [STO] who paints with technical precision about his childhood memories of the nature in Småland where he grew up. His artwork highlight the unexpected beauty that exist between the urban and natural world.
The last artist is Anders Reventlov [DK] who started his artistic career with a spray-can in Bredballe, Denmark during the 90s. He later expanded his career by studying at the Royal Art Academy where he learned how to incorporate a plethora of tools into his art.

The music will be supplied throughout the night with a hot line up consisting of DJ Andy, DJ IRK and our own Ollio who will be spittin’ some drum n’ bass tracks.
DJ Andy is a notorious underground producer in the Swedish scene who have scored several iconic street-art movies such as XTC and Lady in Red.
DJ IRK will blend a mix of beats that truly resonates with the hustling and bustling energy of the city. Together they will create an intensive atmosphere that blends the boundaries of the public and art, in an environment inspired by Boiler Rooms.
In tandem with the DJs, a group of performance artist will interpret the music using a special video installation that will combine movement, lights and sound for a truly hypnotic experience, for a night that never sleeps.
