On November 22nd at 7 PM, we are opening the group exhibition "STENCILS ONLY 2013" at the Pretty Portal Gallery.
In the exhibition STENCILS ONLY, Pretty Portal presents various positions of international urban art artists who work with stencils. Among them are the Spanish artist BTOY, who was featured this year with her series of Cleopatra Portraits at the Bundeskunsthalle in Bonn; Stefan Winterle, known for his photorealistic still lifes and who, in addition to his artistic work, also curates for the Carhardt Gallery in Weil am Rhein; FinDAC, one of the outstanding artists of the STROKE Urban Artfair 2013, as well as Jana&Js, Orticanoodles, Tankpetrol, ICKS and Psychoanutes.

Stencil (English for template) refers to an artistic technique in which paint is sprayed onto the painting surface using stencils. The French term "Pochoir" is used less frequently, although the technique, initiated by Blek le Rat in France, found artistic use on a larger scale for the first time.
