Michel Cren Pietsch has been influencing the urban art scene since the 1980s. He continues his craft today, inspiring the next generation of artists. In the beginning, Cren started with graffiti on walls, a passion which he has kept alive today. His, bright creations have made his international reputation in the street art scene, as art lovers from Switzerland to the USA seek his work. He has an unmistakable and distinctive style, somewhere between abstract graffiti and pop art, playing with shape and colour to create playful works of art, that are sometimes figurative and sometimes more abstract. My husband and I bought a piece from his Funkhaus series in 2020, which Cren delivered to our front door here in Paris himself! Since then, we have enjoyed a cordial friendship and I am honoured to be able to work with this interesting and influential artist.
