A long time before the rise of urban activism the German brothers Maik and Dirk Löbbert have been doing their thang already. Subtle urban interventions, often on photo only that were made to alter your perception of public and private space. Get a C-print of ‘Antalya’ today or visit their current exhibition ‘Streetworker’ in Cologne to see what they are up to now. Catch a glimpse of the artists in this rather boring video.
