Brief Summary
“Street artists, street art, graffiti, collage, tags, engraving… Theses words, before underground and marginals, are today even more difficult to qualify. Street seems to be more and more present into people mind as a common exposition place, faddish, but accessible to everybody. However isn’t art present in the street since ages? Stefan Eck knows that perfectly, and even he grinded his style over some walls in the north of France, it is through the ancestral art of parades, creating large metallic structures and performing it in the streets, that he build a strong style and vision. From Beijing to New York, he developed a strong and flourishing universe, evaluative, colorful and inspired in a direct relationship with his public.” Jekyll&Hyde magazine
