  Gallery Of Illustrations By Low Bros - Germany

The Low Bros is an artist formerly active as graffiti design.
Their work most often centers around stylized animal characters with human features, and addresses graffiti, hip hop, skateboarding and other elements which influenced and shaped the artists’ youth in the 1980s and 1990s.The Low Bros also address current topics in their work, which hint to future developments.
Their documentation of the youth culture of the 80s and 90s is intended to conserve a former way of life. The use of contemporary methods, however, gives thematic glimpses into the future.
The protagonists of their work embody codes and attitudes of city life, which are in contrast to the natural purity of the animal and nature motifs.
The work of the artist duo is fueled by the complex interaction between two-dimensionality and three-dimensionality: It is the synergy of geometric and flowing organic shapes, cubic effects, expressive color grids and multifaceted patterns that brings their work to life.
Influences from design and illustration can be seen, as well as the cool and abstract video game esthetics from the 80s and 90s, and the psychedelic shapes and colors of ancient cultures.
Great attention is also given to technical precision and detail. This is done, however, in a rather light-hearted way, thanks to many humorous details, which become apparent upon closer examination. This is how the world of the Low Bros could be described; a world where painted scenes are transformed into surreal places of wonder.
