#InYourFace- a series of
creative lectures. Made to inspire.

#INYOURFACE. One of the easiest ways to have your blinkers torn away and to open up new vistas you not even dreamt about. It is about seeing people rise through failure, having the right thoughts and ideas at the right time and – above all people never willing to accept limitations and boundaries. With one saying: „Some people see things and ask why, those people dream things and ask why not?!“ #INYOURFACE is the perfect dose geiler Zeitgeist, preparing you for tomorrow. Global. Fundamental. Radical. Don’t care? Go, and shoot yourself in the foot.

Lukas-Pierre Bessis "Kill Your Agency"

Die Agenturen schaffen sich ab! Einerseits weil sie für generische Werbeideen, wie z.B. eine Familie sitzt in der Küche und isst ein Fertiggericht, nachdem alle ihren Teller leer haben, streiten sich die Anwesenden um die letzte Portion im Topf, Kreationshonorare berechnen, andererseits weil Lukas-Pierre Bessis in seinem Buch “Kill Your Agency” die Meinung vertritt, dass jeder Mensch in der Lage ist schöpferisch tätig zu sein. Mit seiner Forschung beschäftigt er sich seit Jahren mit Creative Effectiveness Ideen. Also mit Ideen, die richtig sind in dem WAS sie sagen und radikal in dem WIE sie es sagen. In seinem kurzweiligen Buch erklärt er die sechs entscheidenden Faktoren einer Creative Effectiveness Idee und anschließend gibt er einen Einblick in den Ideenentwicklungsprozess der sicherstellt solch eine Idee zu entwickeln. Schritt für Schritt und in einem durchdachten, wissenschaftlich begründeten und in der Praxis erprobten Prozess kann jeder erlernen Creative Effectiveness Ideen zu entwickeln. Jeder Mensch kann – es genügt Step by Step – dem Creative Effectiveness Prozess folgen. Um heutzutage ein Produkt, eine Dienstleistung und sogar eine Marke erfolgreich zu platzieren, braucht es weder Marketingagenturen noch Branchen-Gurus. Mit Hilfe dieses Handbuches ist es jedem möglich Ideen zu entwickeln, die auch verkaufen. Das Buch ist im Mai 2015 im renommierten Haufe Verlag erschienen und überall im Handel erhältlich. Auf Amazon gibt es Kill your agency auch zum download für Kindle.

Lutz Wagner a.k.a. Moto Waganari`s

sculptures emerge from virtual space at the intersection of art, architecture and science. Within the interplay of their inherent lighting conditions—both natural and artificial—they once again generate new images as material manifestations and polymer images of their original digital archetypes.

To attempt to place Moto Waganari’s work within the familiar coordinate grid would mean to negate the work’s contradictoriness and to ruin the polymorphic magic radiating from it, something which is also inherent in the creative process. Born in a virtual wonderland and shaped from the binary clay of bits and bytes, Waganari transforms his digital golems into analogue and polygon grid creatures by way of an intricate technical process.

The sculpture itself becomes space, within which light is reflected and—along the lines of a labyrinthine net structure—gives birth to new forms and images. Where does sculpture end, and where does space begin?

Far Eastern minimalism harmonises with the iconographically-charged figurativeness and expressive strength of the old European masters in Moto Waganari’s art. These are sculptures whose visual dynamic playfully adapts the fluent elegance of samurai depictions and—at the same time— quotes the rugged physicality typically associated with classical busts. Multiple semantic levels emerge within and from space. It is here where true 21st century art emerges: where reputed contradictions and feigned incongruities—between tradition and modernism, process and result, artificiality and authenticity, prototype and copy, virtual and real—are not perceived as antagonistic, but as creative and within the realm of possibilities of the 21st century. This is the art of Moto Waganari.

Andre Levy a.k.a. ZHION

was born on Instagram, and it’s an initiative by Andre Levy a.k.a. @zhion, a Brazilian illustrator, art director and visual artist based in Frankfurt, Germany. “We are constantly surrounded by pop figures – in films, in music, comics, and even in gossip magazines. They are sometimes our escape from reality, our fantasies. Coins portray something opposite: the real, the everyday. his project is about individual expression in opposition to massified thinking, about how our personal passions are more worthy than things that are imposed to us. The paint brings to the faces of kings and presidents borrowed narratives from other famous characters and unleash individual alternative stories.”
