In Zusammenarbeit mit dem Schweizer Streetart Künstler Harun „Shark“ Dogan entstanden die costumized Fußball-Trikots.

Er wirkte an der Fotostrecke SMUDGE als art director mit und unterstützte damit den kreativen Teil der Fotografie von Kai Stuht.

Fußballstars wie Luca Toni, Franck Ribéry, Bastian Schweinsteiger,Tranquillo Barnetta, Mladen Petric und Sebastian Prödl stiegen im Münchner Studio des Fotokünstlers in einen 12 qm2 großen, randvoll mit weißer Farbe gefüllten Pool, um dort mit Fallrückzieher und Seitfallzieher ihre Spuren zu hinterlassen.

Harun „Shark“ Dogan`s Wurzeln liegen in der urbanen Subkultur. Sein Arbeitsspektrum reicht von Graffiti/Streetart über Grafik/Illustration bis hin zu Textil- und Industrie Design.

Nach seiner kürzlich abgeschlossenen Weltreise als «Got2b-Trendscout, sammelte der «Networker» weltweit Kontakte für neue Projekte. Eines davon ist „TheRedFlag“, eine für Sommer ‘09 geplante Messe in den Bereichen «Fashion-Sport-Lifestyle-Design». Das in Zusammenarbeit mit Starshot.de entwickelte Konzept zur Messe sieht darüber hinaus vor, weitere Events, Produkte und Präsentationen im Vorfeld zu realisieren. Der Startschuss erfolgte nun mit „TheRedFlag“ Magazin im Januar ‘08 an der Ispo in München und bis Sommer 08 sollen weitere Mini-Events folgen, in Städten wie Tokio, New York, Barcelona, Berlin, Istanbul, München.

Im Rahmen einer kleinen Ausstellung stellt Shark „TheRedFlag“ Magazin vor.
Ausstellungsdauer: 4 Wochen, Veranstaltungsort: Galerie zur Nachtigall, Zürich..

We already reported on Shark`s trip around the world, always searching for trends in the name of the got2be-Trendscout.

He visited cities such as New York, Buenos Aires, Los Angeles and Tokyo so far, and now presents impressing pictures of this trip.

Read his reports at got2be-trendscout - it`s worth visiting!

-> Feel free to visit his new Website too

Shark is got2b - Trendscout!

On June 16th 2007, the jury of the got2b - Trendscout contest together with the audience in the «Härterei» in Zurich elected the winner of the got2b-Trendscout award. And the winner is: Shark!

From the beginning of August, Shark will be looking for trends in cities such as New York, Buenos Aires, Stockholm, London, Berlin, Tokyo and a city of his choice. He will report on his trip to the community on the got2be - Trendscout website.

And this is what you can expect from the got2be - Trendscout:
- Trendreports from various cities
- A travelblog with his very personal impressions
- The possibility to ask him some questions
- Furthermore, you can buy some hot and trendy things on ebay, which were selected and bought by Shark on his trips and which are probably not yet available in your country! The gains of the auction on ebay are 100% forwarded to UNICEF, the United Nations Children’s Fund.

Congratulations Shark! We are thrilled to see and hear from your exciting trip!

The «Art Clash» is the designers’ «Battle of the Year», the illustrators` «Write for Gold», the artists` «MC-Battle».

The «Art Clash» is a contest over 3 rounds with 16 international graphic designers, writers, artists and painters.

The goal of each round is to design the given objects as special and as fancy as possible. A famous jury judges the designed objects and selects the winners of each round. The winner of the final round achieves fame, prize money and his own T-Shirt collection by Carhartt!
Nevertheless, the basic idea of connecting artists in this special and unforced way of the «painters battle» remains the main purpose of this event.

During 3 days, 9 artists from Eindhoven and 6 artists from Zurich produced this work in Zurich.

This work should point out how mobile art and design can be. And it should also show how the creativity expands, when artists from different cities, countries and cultures improvise and interact together.

Once you start, you never know where the journey will end!

The design office Rutan from Darmstadt will create a 500 m2 lounge at the international furniture design fair «IMM» 2007.

The main attraction is an installation of 10 tables, which have been designed from international artists and designers. Among these are also designs by Shark, Mate and Zora aka Suki Bamboo.

The original item was a table with a white surface, the motive (picture or vector) was free to choose. The only demand was to perform the design only with black colour and one additional colour at designer`s option.

You can find details as well as further information about «N’TISCH» here

You can also find the three Conquest Creatives table-designs here.
