Graffiti artist Maximilian Wiedemann's work explores the dependent reltionship between pop culture, media and consumerism. This exhibit examines the perplexities of grand industry against the trials and behaviour of modern society. His sense of humour is perfect for our ambiguous times, with quotes such as "Closer to God in Heels" and "The better you look, the more you see". Picking up the heels where the bourgeoisie stopped, Wiedemann has continued the quest into the life style of the rich and famous. He takes somethong iconic and turns it upside down.

Never having seen the inide of an art academy, Wiedemann's roots lie in the urban landscape, which he then traded in for the blank canvas. On his journey he perfected the skill of spray can art and developed a range of techniques, allowing him to capture and express the strong accent of urban art in a new context.

Wiedemann's art revolves around peole's identity and their evolution. He plas with the game of hype, having a little fun with sensationalism and seduction. His sarcasm show through bright happy colours and clean, delicate lines. Wiedemann has a tremendous gift by taking the siplicity of street art, creating a new sence o appeal and bringing this to a distinguished and modern level.

Wiedemann has been exhibiting and curating both collecive and individual shows throgout Europe since 1999 and is represented in various collections around the world. He lives and works in West London, where he creates his personal art and commissioned portraits.
