Creativity and courage. Conquest and style. Surfing as well as skateboarding is a combination of physical and creative elements. The interaction of the sport with art, design, film and music creates a dynamic, constantly moving culture. The roots of skateboarding lies in the drop-out mentality of the surfing scene in California of the 50s and 60s. As a consequence aspects of subculture remain until today in the thematic focus of both linked cultures.
The appropriation of the public space plays an essential role for skate-boarding, while surfers conquer landscapes and open space. Through this originates a structural relationship to aspects of free art – above all to Urban Art and photography. To offer the topical state of the development of Surf and Skate Culture an adequate platform is the
aim for the group exhibition „CYAN/ANTHRACITE“.
The motivation and thoughts of the participating artists and was presented in cinemas in Copenhagen, Flensburg, Kiel...and Hamburg. The success of the exhibition as well as the ongoing thrive of the curators create the urge for a further development of the subject. A productive base for a continaution was created through the additional and related aspect of skateboarding.
So a wider range of artists can be presented and a broader audience can be reached.
