Notes


Jeremias Altmann, also better known as his street art name ‘El Jerrino’, is an incredibly talented Austrian street artist and lecturer at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna. Jeremias’ art can be seen on buildings and streets all over the world: Brussels, London, Delhi, Vienna, Potsdam, Buenos Aires and Dublin to name just a view.

The artist explores each city he visits. He takes time to prepare, understands the city and finds that corner, the empty space where he can add his graphics and colours. During this time of exploration, he is constantly sketching and absorbing the city around him.

Khirki and Malvya Nagar main market are the results of one of these moments of exploration in Delhi where he produced a series of street drawings, wall paintings, oil paintings and etchings. Such was the impression his art left on the city and its inhabitants that, with the support of the Austrian Cultural Forum New Delhi, he was invited back to continue to draw and paint the Indian city. A city the artist describes as a “magical place of mind-boggling complexity”.
