Alice, why would you leave wonderland?

<div>&nbsp;L.E.T.(Abbreviation for “Les Enfants Terribles”) is a street artist from the very beginning.Since 1992 - roughly as long as the legendary Banksy - he has been actively shaping the streetscape of his hometown of Düsseldorf.While there is otherwise a lot of competition between the cities of Cologne and Düsseldorf, this does not apply to art in public spaces and that is why L.E.T. works.also like in Cologne.He works with paste ups and the stencil technique.Today L.E.T.rightly considered one of the best and most creative street artists from Germany and is also highly regarded internationally.And it is always the issues of our time that L.E.T.takes a critical look at it and thus reveals the grievances in our consumer and fun society in a tongue-in-cheek way.L.E.T.'s artistic significance is constantly increasing through worldwide exhibitions and street artist conventions.His works can also be found at auctions - usually at multiples of the original price!This stencil has L.E.T.Created for City Leaks in 2011 and has since been restored.&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;</div><div>L.E.T. (Abkürzung <em>für „Les Enfants Terribles“</em>) ist ein Street Art Künstler der ersten Stunde. Seit 1992 – also in etwa genauso lange wie der legendäre Banksy – prägt er aktiv das Straßenbild seiner Heimatstadt Düsseldorf. Gibt es sonst viel Konkurrenzdenken zwischen den Städten Köln und Düsseldorf, so gilt dies aber nicht für die Kunst im öffentlichen Raum und deshalb arbeitet L.E.T. auch gerne in Köln. Er arbeitet mit Paste Ups, als auch mit der Stencil-Technik. Heute gilt L.E.T. zu Recht als einer der besten und kreativsten Street Artisten aus Deutschland und wird auch international hoch gehandelt. Und immer sind es die Themen unserer Zeit, die L.E.T. kritisch aufs Korn nimmt und so auf augenzwinkernde Weise Missstände in unserer Konsum- und Spaßgesellschaft aufdeckt. L.E.T.s künstlerische Bedeutung steigt ständig durch weltweite Ausstellungen und Street-Artist-Conventions. Auch auf Auktionen finden sich seine Werke vermehrt – in der Regel zu einem Vielfachen des ursprünglichen Preises! Dieses Stencil hat L.E.T. 2011 für City Leaks geschaffen und wurde inzwischen auch wieder restauriert.&nbsp;</div>

<pre>Yann Mathé aka L.E.T. (Les Enfants Terribles) is of French descent and lives in Düsseldorf. </pre><div><br></div><pre>L.E.T. sprays and sticks on walls, electrical boxes, bridge piers, site fences, old doors and more. His stencils and paste-ups are often cryptic. They show children or adults with sometimes funny, sometimes provocative messages. </pre><div><br></div><pre>The street art motifs have meanwhile also found their way into German galleries, where you can buy them – captured on canvas, cardboard or wood – and then hang them up at home.</pre><div><br>Its a reference to Robert H. Schullers book from 1984 <br><br>Dr. Schuller shows you how to build a positive self-image, no matter what&nbsp; your problem. Whether it's unemployment, poor&nbsp; health, loneliness, fear or <em>anything&nbsp; else</em> that blocks your success, you can turn your negative into a positive. No matter how tough&nbsp; times get, you have the potential to achieve the best of life. Through Dr. Schuller’s dynamic principles</div>

ART IS A DAUGHTER OF FREEDOM

I'm drunk and you'really still ugly

<p>This artwork is known with several sayings on the front of the little girl. It is nearly impossible to see the sentence here. That´s streetart at it´s best. It´s nothing that lasts forever, time and sunshine will change the look, it is fading....</p>

Little Girl (?)

<p>This artwork seems to be timeless, it is here for years and even the supermarket respects its existence. The wall around the shopping cart is grey painted, only the edge protection on the floor hides the last centimeters of this work.</p>

Shopping Cart (?)

<p><strong>L.E.T. integrated the building's existing architecture into the painting by utilizing the overhead concrete canopy directly above the wall. He painted the wall to look like a water surface with a shark emerging from it. This visual trick turns the solid concrete canopy into a floating pier or dock positioned right over the water.</strong></p><p></p>
