In the web series YASHA’S FRIENDS for ARTE Creative, curator Yasha Young presents nine of her favorite international artists and, finally, her own project: the first museum in all of Germany for urban contemporary art. Here, the freedom-loving art form will be presented on a large scale hanging from or literally on the gallery walls. The web series of artist portraits doesn’t focus “only” on trendsetting artists, but also presents the sheer diversity of a bubbling, active, and ever-developing scene of innovative thinkers and movers and shakers who are pushing boundaries.
Concisely narrated and with elaborate FX animations and detailed sound design, YASHA’S FRIENDS offers an in-depth look into the world of urban contemporary art in 9 compact episodes.
