  • Movingart: a Rolling Work Of
    Munich, 26.10.2017 #movingART: A rolling work of art Using a lot of tape, the Berlin-based tape artists, part of the Klebebande collective, turned a NEOPLAN Skyliner into an impressive work of art. Further joint projects are to follow. MAN Truck & Bus Dachauer Strasse 667 D-80995 Munich Tape artists designed the NEOPLAN Skyliner under the motto “Urban Perspectives” Should any questions arise, Strong shapes and clear lines bring design to the please contact: Anne Katrin Wieser forefront Phone: +49 89 1580-2001 First performance at the Busworld fair on the occasion of [email protected] the 50th anniversary of the NEOPLAN Skyliner www.mantruckandbus.com/presse Equipped with a design, a lot of rolls of tape in neon pink, black and gold, as well as music, it took just four days to turn a white NEOPLAN Skyliner into a rolling work of art. The tape artists from the Klebebande artist collective were inspired by what was on their own front doorstep: the skyline of a large city provided the lines and shapes that now adorn the double-decker coach. “The design is a very abstract interpretation of an urban space. It’s just like sitting on a coach, driving through a city, looking at the sky and the houses flying past you,” said Bruno Kolberg, one of the three Klebebande artists, describing the approach to the motif. Accordingly, the title of the work is also “Urban Perspectives”. Piece by piece, the artists built their image on the unusual canvas, producing three-dimensional effects by using various strong lines in line thicknesses of 5 mm to 10 cm and in different colours.
