Berlin Street Art: Paste Ups

Paste ups are pieces of art that are created before hand and then pasted up with an adhesive, normally wheat paste and a brush or broom (depending on the size). Because they are fast to put up and often legal to paste up (it's basically just like those concert posters they paste up everywhere) some other street artists look down on them somewhat. The fact that they are created at leisure means that they can sometimes be very artistic, and sine they are often printed out, like stencils, the same image can be easily reused. I already gave a good look at Berlin artist El Boco in an earlier post, but he's by no means the only person doing paste-ups in Berlin.

LiskBot goes about town putting up these sinister looking robots.

I'm not sure who puts up these children, but they are even creepier than the robots.

You already know Little Lucy. The weird sheep thing is by an artist from Paris that goes by the Sheepist, who puts up paste-ups of sheep everywhere. I've run into his sheep in Paris, Prague, and now Berlin. I'm not sure of the artist on the third piece, but there are a lot of similair ones all over the Mitte area.

Here's an assorted mix of other interesting paste-ups from the city. I don't know who the artists are, but I'll try to find out when I have more time.
