STREET PAINTING & PUBLIC EVENTS

        One of the few recognized Master Street Painters in the world, Kurt Wenner creates original street masterpieces, live, before the public.  Classical figures and stories, richly portrayed in handmade pastels, rise from the pavement to delight and astonish onlookers.  Wenner is a performing visual artist who turns the celebratory folk art of street painting into a performance art spectacle.  The opportunity for groups and individuals to see fine art in the making and talk with the artists generates a tremendous public interest and press coverage drawing enormous crowds at festivals, conferences, galas and other cultural events.

        In community settings, Wenner’s images often reflect local history, current events, or a specific them for the occasion.  For corporations, he can weave a logo or marketing message into his design.  Corporate team building events often include Wenner working with small groups that create their own paintings.
