Neue Arbeiten von Filippo Minelli! “Filippo Minelli is a conceptual-artist with a graffiti-background who dedicated the last 10 years to urban communication, in the direction of the first steps of the international street-art movement, becoming a pioneer for Italy. The beginning of Minelli’s production is almost spontaneous, he is the Steinbech boy who wants to leave a trace of his existence. Not only words, sentences, searched and wanted non-senses, but also drawings, nearly tales. The next steps take him to inusual and provokingly productions, changing the aestethic of conventional graffiti: not anymore a logo or an inscription serially repeated, but site-specific artworks, contextualized with the location.” Via
