Various & Gould and Flower Power in Berlin

When was the last time you sent your grandma a greeting card? Huh?

You know she likes those ones with all the fancy swirly fonts and flowers growing up the trellis and probably a couple of cats wrestling. Get going son. You won’t have Grandma forever and you know how she loves her grand babies. And no, an e-card is not the same thing.

That’s what we were thinking about when we saw this new piece from Street Artists Various & Gould, who found an old abandoned billboard in Berlin and decided to bring it back to life with a nostalgic nod to old-timey signage, advertising and their own collage robotic style. “It was just a perfect summer day for painting,” says Gould, who say it is a collaboration with their friend Chula. You could call it a personal beautification project, and Grandma might wonder about that mustachioed fella in his pajamas.
