COMMUNITY WALL BY LAKE

The URBAN NATION MUSEUM presents a programme that goes beyond the current group exhibition ”Loneliness and Other False Friends”. In this programme some of Berlin’s most renowned artists, namely: Caro Pepe, Devita, Honey Beebs, Lake and Mate created a series of murals, the C-Walls, that address the exhibition theme in and around Bülowstraße.

Lake was born in East Berlin in 1979. From 1996 -1998 he lived and worked in Munich. He had his first exhibition in 1997, followed by around 60 more to date and collaborated with the Berlin agency “Graco”. Apart from Germany, he has commissioned works, exhibitions in Spain, Portugal, Italy, Poland, Sweden, Switzerland, Canada, Mexico, Chile, Argentina, Brazil, USA, Denmark and Greece, among others.

Between 2005-2019 he published his first, second, third and fourth art picture books of his own work, production and distribution run by himself. Lake is a co-founder of the Panjika cooperative in Leonidio (Greece).

Lake invites us to follow the meanders of his work in soft tones at Bülowstrasse 97 just next to the exhibition in the URBAN NATION Project Space ”Loneliness and Other False Friends”. Let you dream in front of its composition!
