About Borai Kahne Ateliers

Borai & Kahne Ateliers - painting on newspaper and apply style elements of graffiti and comics. In a joint working process we arrange pieces of information spontaneously and remind of future current events. Information materials of all kinds are changed, supplemented and combined.Our collaborative work has its origin in Berlin during the 1980s - it is a spiritual experience. An important part of our technique is "Paperplaining". About us ARTE Creative: ” Today in the newspaper, tomorrow on it! Borai & Kahne Ateliers not only read, but also paint their daily morning-reading!”- 21.05.2011, ”A mix of comic and graffiti turns newspaper into artwork” - 20.12.2011,” Borai & Kahne Ateliers make their own banner lines, only with far more style and humour “- 27.02.2012, The Huffington Post - 02.08.2012, Photo-Collection: "The Olympic Spirit" from Saatchi Online, sheet 11.
