DO THE STARS NEED A REASON TO SHINE
Exhibition

Krome Gallery presents the first exhibition of Markus Weisbeck. “Do the Stars Need a Reason to Shine” is his first exhibition that brings his artistic approach to image production. On large wooden panels he renders typographic images (Schrift-Bilder) of slogans and neologisms that are both poetic and nonsensical, while playing with the visual aesthetics of late ’80s and early ’90s pop culture. All used texts are derived from his close friend, the writer Christian Arends, whom he lived with from 1985 to 1990.

For the traditional vineyard Dr. Deinhard in Deidesheim the new corporate design 
"von Wining" was created. The unusual vine stock growing in the renowned area

Staedelschule
Website
The website for the Staedelschule employs different geometric possibilities- using various color ranges as the formal basis for individual information about the institution. As a pragmatic side-effect, the graphic elements structure the information horizontally for navigation and  vertical with columns. The gradient objects refer to the "Verlaufsgedichten"  (Verlauf poems) of the graphic artist Wolfgang Schmidt, who created these in Frankfurt in the early 70´s. http://www.staedelschule.de/
