Cologne, Germany / 2024

The idea for this project was founded in mid-2024 by the Cologne artist SHEEPART.COLOGNE and has its origins in an earlier collaboration with a Cologne artist from the street art scene. Over time, it evolved into the sticker project that can be found on the streets of the world today. In contrast to conventional sticker collages or digital collaborations within the sticker community, the “UNITED WE STICK” project sees itself as an exchange within the global sticker scene in a more collective sense. First and foremost with each other, but of course also with the sticker fan community. 

The individual works were developed in close collaboration with the respective artists. The emphasis was placed on combining the artists’ respective characters into a harmonious collage under a jointly chosen theme. This process is just as important a part of the artistic statement as the resulting work itself. In order to represent the solidarity within the scene, as well as to the project, all works bear the slogan “UNITED WE STICK” as a common heading. Nevertheless, this gives the works a certain recognition value.

The project aims to draw attention to the cohesion within the international sticker community and support the exchange of street art in a transnational way. As the stickers are produced and distributed by the artists themselves in at least two locations, a global network is created over time that ultimately benefits all participants in the project. It also helps the individual artists to expand their awareness in other parts of the world and, if desired, to find new contacts with other artists.

Cologne, Germany / 2018

The idea to deal with this topic artistically, through collages with designs of participating artists, was born in October 2018 during an exchange of ideas between the Cologne artists: Planet_Selfie, Greentaxonomy, VCTRPLNT, Maidincologne, Adultremix, Cuts.and.pieces, Sweetsnini and 8arms2hug. Hatred is a global theme and shows its nasty face in many different facets. It’s time to act, it’s time to get loud. About art as a means to an end and about social media for the worldwide networking of artists to set a sign against hatred.

The non–profit project has been launched via Instagram in November 2018. The viral effect was already clearly perceptible on the net after a few days. Right from the beginning more than 100 artists from all over the world took part, among them many well–known ones like Thomas Baumgärtel (Bananensprayer) and Dave the Chimp joined the #nohatefamily movement. In February 2020 around 1400 artists are already actively setting a creative sign against hatred with their own individual desigend #nohatefamily sticker.

To set a sign against hatred means concretely to demonstrate by the union of the artists in the sticker collages that we united stand for love, diversity and a peaceful togetherness. The bigger sticker collages are called « Wall of love ». Cologne, London, Berlin, Toulouse, Munich, Amsterdam, Hamburg, New York, Leipzig, Ohio, Frankfurt, Rome, Düsseldorf, Rostock, Isla Holbox/Yucatan, Siegen, Opladen among other worldwide spots – the #nohatefamily movement is present with walls of love designed by local artists and supporters.

¿En qué consiste el proyecto Sticker Art Museum?

SAMRO (Sticker Art Museum) nace de una idea de los artistas PinoVolpino y Stelleconfuse. El primer museo, creado en 2022, se instaló en el interior de una cabina telefónica en desuso de Roma, Italia. Sin embargo, al cabo de unos meses, el interior de la cabina se estropeó por completo y decidimos trasladar el museo a un espacio más grande. Esta nueva versión de SAMRO se ha convertido en un “Museo Matryoshka”, ya que se encuentra dentro de un museo más grande, el MAAM (Museo del Otro y del Otro Lugar), también en Roma.

La idea del proyecto es realzar y dar visibilidad al movimiento artístico de la pegatina, reconociéndole por fin la importancia que merece. Musealizar la pegatina artística, insertándola en un museo, significa dar dignidad a esta forma de arte de pequeño formato, hoy extendida por todo el mundo. El proyecto tuvo éxito y nos pareció natural, como evolución, abrir otros museos de arte pegatina en otras ciudades. Las oportunidades abundan: en septiembre inauguramos un nuevo museo en Florencia, Italia, situado en el interior de un ascensor.

What is the Sticker Art Museum project?

SAMRO (Sticker Art Museum) was born from an idea of the artists PinoVolpino and Stelleconfuse. The first museum, created in 2022, was installed inside a disused telephone booth in Rome, Italy. However, after a few months, the inside of the booth completely broke down and we decided to move the museum to a larger space. This new version of SAMRO has become a “Matryoshka Museum”, as it is located inside a larger museum, the MAAM (Museum of the Other and the Other Place), also in Rome.

The idea of the project is to enhance and give visibility to the sticker art movement, finally recognizing it the importance it deserves. Musealizing the sticker art, inserting it in a museum, means giving dignity to this small-format art form, now widespread all over the world. The project was successful and it seemed natural to us, as an evolution, to open other sticker art museums in other cities. Opportunities abound: in September we inaugurated a new museum in Florence, Italy, located inside an elevator.

Rome, Italy / 2022

SAMRO is not only a place where you can exhibit sticker art, but above all it is an idea that has been around for some time in the minds of Stelleconfuse and PinoVolpino: stickers deserve their museum display. The first experience of SAMRO took place by redeveloping an abandoned telephone booth in Rome (Italy), its interior had been covered with a series of combos by the most important sticker artists in the world. The opening of the museum was on July 22, 2022, and after more than 2 months, on October 1, 2022 after being vandalized, this experience was declared closed. On March 25, 2023, SAMRO becomes a « Matryoshka Museum » and opens again inside the Maam (Museum of the Other and Elsewhere of Metropoliz, a mestizo city) in Rome (Italy) More than 250 artists from all over the world, especially Europe, the United States and South America, to which many more will gradually be added.

Toulouse, France / 2019 – 2020

The FIST unites in a single space little pieces of art that you would usually encounter in the street, on a street sign or high up on a drain pipe. Street art includes many different kinds of techniques and practices, such as sticker art, graffiti, stencils, mosaics and installations… Practices that bring change a true re-appropriation of contemporary art by the artists. Urban art should not only finds its support in public spaces, which is why TLSE SLAP decided to step out of that frame and create a link between the street and the art gallery, to show some still unappreciated sides of this alternative movement. Believe us when we say they are plenty, and each year the festival exhibits more artists, whose art works are stuck on different supports all around the globe.

The festival collects contributions sent throughout the world by artists who are active in the movement of “sticker art”. The great majority of these contributions are used to create original installations for the exhibition, and the rest is made available to the public for the whole duration of the event! Wether you are curious or a collector, you will dive into a very special universe, a space of ephemeral creation and of shared efforts, where the exhibition enters an interactive process with the participants. Creativity’s only limits are the ones that we impose on it, feel free to bring your creations to share or exchange them !
