that's it, what happend if you give Käpt'n Kalle some colors and a wall. big thanks to the bHK (bureau Heuchel Klag). One of the best parts of working on this project was seeing the happiness of those who walked by. thank you all for the positive feedback.
further Käpt'n Kalle is pleased to represent some new artworks at the bHK exhibition on 16./17. september 2023 and 23./24. september 2023 in bellheim (a village between mannheim/ludwigshafen and karlsruhe). on this occasion the wall painting can also be viewed. feel free to come by. you are warmly invited.
now a few lines about the artwork in the picture above:
the repetition of the repetition of the repetition.
it's time. high time.
we live in a world of vast quantities.
tons of unnecessary stuff.
we are too heavy.
sinking steadily
too much of everything.
crash.
garbage. so much garbage. only garbage.
quantity instead of quality.
to blame?
clearly: the west wind.
they have sown wind now they are reaping the artist's storm. his response: 42 portraits sprayed on the arthouse. he has enough, he's fed up with the omnipresent browned sausage.
goose-stepping armies of soldiers, which conquer the
public space everywhere and
leave behind a trail of PRopaganda. capital
allows to enter the minds of the people with any nonsense.

bowed heads are just as ubiquitous an effect of PRopaganda as dissatisfied, fearful people. it's like magic. millions are controlled by PRopaganda - all it takes is the push of a button.
the consequence: absence. escape to other places, virtual rooms, flickering rooms, resounding rooms. any anesthetic is right. the total devil's circle, which leads to even greater inner emptiness. it constantly sparks the demand for even higher doses of narcotics. no matter which drug - this circle is endless, but it always begins with PRopaganda: ... alcohol, fortnite, soccer, instagram, fashion articles, morphine, tiktok, ... .
the 42nd portrait shines in the dark: is there hope after all? but where is this portrait?
here a sketch of the wall painting:
