The Artists
If you want to meet a typical local artist; Aniel is your guy. Aniel started out in the graffiti scene around 1985 and can therefore be called one of the most experienced man in the graffiti scene. He is a renowned artist in Rotterdam and the artwork he has created for Rewriters, de Gouvernestraat, was previously also featured with one of his works.
Bier & Brood
Bier&Brood, the men of Rotterdam who can do magic with the non-colours black and white, but when necessary also know where to find the coulours. This duo focusses on realistic paintings and are known for their detailed work. Besides street art they also associate themselves with other graphic work. For instance they have created illustrations for the Volkskrant (Dutch newspaper). To see their other associated work and their street art, you can keep an eye on their website.
Lastplak
Without a doubt this is the most colourful group of Rotterdam. Monsters, colours, animals, colours, cartoons, extra colours…Lastplak is a graffiti/street art-crew that consists of 9 members. Their first project for Rewriters were made by Ox-Alien, Sake, Pinwin, Grrt, Boortorrie en Oles with the help of the extern painters: June, Edo Rath, 6of7 & KBTR. Want to know what they are up to?
