Visited & Jumbled Cuba’s Capitol City Habana in June 2006:
The 2nd Cuba Crisis: Trippin’ in Habana! (Book Contribution: “Cubabrasil” by ‘From Here to Fame‘ Publishing)

We invented Graffiti to one of the last standing nations. They need the streets to react to their leadership. You won’t see any US-tourists around. I liked that ,-)
This country is fucked up by the US-Trade
Embargo. They got blackmailed like Angola, Panama and Iraq. (a. o.)
But these people know that
Castro is saving them from crack & capitalism. They got rum, chicks, green caribbean sea and sun. What else do they need? Of course:
Freedom & Cuba Libre! Patria o Muerte…

CUBA IS A LITTLE CROCODILE-SHAPED ISLAND in the Caribbean Sea.
Trapped between Florida and Jamaica, the Bahamas and Haiti, the island offers rum, cigars and a whole lot of love on top of an azure-blue sea and ample sunshine.
But Cuba also stands for slavery, racism, revolution and bloody battles. Despite being such a small part of the world, Cuba has been through more than its fair share of misery and is certainly going to see some more. Guantanamo Bay and an aged dictator, a psychotic climate and a Big Brother state that controls and restricts its people in spite of defunct technology and infrastructure – Cuba stands for all of the above. If you go to Venezuela you find Burger King and McDonald’s on every street corner and everyone’s on crack. In Cuba, there are no drugs or advertisements, apart from the omnipresent hand-painted propaganda posters celebrating the revolution and its leaders.
Propaganda and censorship determine every day. Free-thinkers, like artists for example, have it particularly hard. For them, the image of the boat has become a symbol of freedom, since there are no boats in Cuba. Because of the trade embargo against Cuba all products and commodities are rare.
Even in the capital Havana it’s difficult for a painter to buy a simple brush.

The people in Cuba don’t even have paint for their house numbers.«

The name “Cuba” comes from the Taíno language and though the exact meaning is unclear, it may be translated either as “where fertile land is abundant” (cubao), or as “great place” (coabana). Additionally, there is the claim that native inhabitants called the island “Cubagua” in the Columbus era starting in 1542.
Cuba is located in the northern Caribbean at the confluence of the Caribbean Sea, the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean. Cuba is south of the eastern United States and The Bahamas, west of the Turks and Caicos Islands and Haiti, east of Mexico and north of the Cayman Islands and Jamaica.
Havana is the largest city in Cuba and the country’s capital. Santiago de Cuba is the second largest city. Cuba is home to over 11 million people and is the most populous insular nation in the Caribbean. Its people, culture, and customs draw from diverse sources, including the aboriginal Taíno and Ciboney peoples; the period of Spanish colonialism; the introduction of African slaves; and its proximity to the United States.

I left Havana by taxi. About one hour to all directions out of town…
I instructed the driver to slow down whenever we pass a propaganda signboard aside the road – to photograph it.
I did some fotos – browse some of the most representative and interrestic ones!
They are all handpainted. These ones highlight health, education, socialism, the embargo and other topics.
Commercial Advertizing doesn’t exist in Cuba at all.
It’s interesting to see how much spiritedness is invested by artists and government for those few people passing the highways. Propaganda is a part of our life and human history. Don’t get confused ’bout it!
CubaBrasil is a German-Serbian-Brasilian-Cuban co-project, founded by Carlito Stone two years ago.
Urban art and graffiti are coming together to form an all new category at the biennial in Havana.

The History & Definition of isometric Pixelart:
The term pixel art was first published by Adele Goldberg and Robert Flegal of Xerox Palo Alto Research Center in 1982. The concept, however, goes back about 10 years before that, for example in Richard Shoup’s SuperPaint system in 1972, also at Xerox PARC.
Some traditional art forms, such as cross-stitch, mosaic and beadwork, bear some similarity to pixel art by constructing pictures out of small colored units analogous to the pixels of modern digital computing.
A similar concept on a much bigger scale can be seen in the mass games.
Pixel art is distinguished from other forms of digital art by an insistence upon manual, pixel-level editing of an image (without the application of image filters, automatic anti-aliasing or special rendering modes), often at close magnification. In this form, it is commonly said that “each pixel was placed carefully” to achieve a desired result.
ICE = Intercity Express:
(German pronunciation: [iːtseːˈeː]) — is a system of high-speed trains predominantly running in Germany and neighbouring countries. It is the highest service category offered and is the flagship of Deutsche Bahn.
It’s among the best-known brands of Germany. It’s the most secured Train in Germany – Go and paint it!

Kestner Museum Hanover:
Thousands of years under one roof
The lawyer August Kestner (1777-1853) lived as a diplomat of the Hanover king house in Rome for many years, where he gathered an extensive collection of antique art. Its nephew gave the works of art to the city of Hanover in 1882. Together with the 1887 acquired art collection of the printer and Hanover senator Friedrich Culemann they form the basic stick of the today’s collection of the museum, which was opened 1889.

»People who do not see the terrible things therefore do not see the beautiful things, either. «
