The
Art of Rebellion
Hi my name is Christian Hundertmark,
i'm the author and designer of the book : The
Art of Rebellion.
i'm 28 years old, started painting graffiti in 1989 then switched
to so- called streetart three years ago.
i'm running a small design studio in munich called C100
studio,
normally i work for clients in the music and sports industry.
Is Art of Rebelion your first book ?
yes it is, I'm so stoked because i didn't really expect such a
great feedback.
Actually it all started really small, with some demo layouts which
i presented to the publisher.
Now i hold a book in hands, together with a mix cd and we had a
great book launch last weekend.
it's crazy!
Yeah, definitely. i'm so stoked how many good photos , stickers,
interviews and other material i got.
although i've seen the layouts the last six month every day, i'm
still excited when i look at it.
There was a release event at "Die Registratur" in
Munich on the 10th October. How was it for you ?
Man, i'm still excited when i think about that. we (Joseph from
beautiful days prod and i) tried to get sponsors for the release
event but they all weren't really interested or had their budgets
planned
for other stuff. so we decided to do it by ourself and share the
cost.
Somehow all of a sudden a lot of great artists said they will
come even i can't pay them the gas money or flights. compost records
paid
d*face flight, who helped me a lot - hessenmob- a german skatebrand.sent
us some blank decks, which were painted during daytime + some printed
boards by dave the chimp & kinsey, we also painted some canvases.
then in the evening we had a great party, music by the Plastic
jugganots ( 5 turntables !!!)- massive!,
i remember dom from stickernation saying "this is like wildstyle".
Thanks for the interview!
cheers,
Chris
