ABCDEF Marble Paintings

ABCDEF Marble Paintings is a Zine from Stickit.

Abcdef is always exploring the possibilities with aerosol. Quick drawings, numbers, lines or dots. During free executions and research he came up with the idea of coloring square pieces with marble filling. The desire arose to make these marble paintings on a larger scale. Somewhere in Germany he found a random wall, that turned out to be suitable for his marble addiction. This wall, 90 meters long and 1.70 meters high, was painted more than 70 times between September 2021 and April 2023.

Stickit Publishing

Stickit started in early 2001 as a platform to promote the emerging street art movement. Stencil graffiti, poster and sticker art as well as murals and street installations. The website became a fast-growing database to show the diversity of the scene. Creations from young, local artists as well as from now renowned artists. The website also contained a forum to discuss the subjects and meet other artists and like-minded people. Stickit made a lot of friends back then, some are still good friends to this day. For many, this burgeoning scene was a movement without rules and boundaries. Anyone could jump in to express their creativity.

Over the years, their focus has remained the same but now promote the scene in a different way. Today Stickit invite artists to put together a monograph of their work. Usually in the form of a zine. In terms of interpretation, they are completely free. Artists come from different disciplines, with a background equally in street art/graffiti. Stickit is based in Utrecht, The Netherlands, but focused on an international audience.
