Mike Friedrich and Timrobot "NOW IN 2D" at West Berlin Gallery

West Berlin Gallery proudly presents Mike Friedrich and Timrobot - NOW IN 2D* from September 30th to October 30th 2010 at the West Berlin Gallery.

The 3D trend is rising and everything is jam-packed with 3D effects, new products flood the market everyday, everything gets a 3D facelift. It's like Botox for the media. Even the art world is not safe from this trend. But do we need all this? Mike Friedrich and Timrobot - both members of The World Organisation, a Berlin based art collective- say «NO!» At least not yet.

At the West Berlin Gallery they will show a potpourri of illustrations and paintings dealing with the 3D theme in a humorous and satiric way. Watch as 2D collide when Timrobot's cute characters enter Mike Friedrich's underworld. Coming from a background of comics, Saturday morning cartoons and a time where 3D was more like blue and red lines than hightech effects, the artists want to set a statement and present their artworks in a maybe not so serious way – completely in 2D.

* Special 2D-glasses will be provided at the Opening at 7pm on the 30th of September. The evening will be completed by music and drinks to make it a date.
