Together on a concrete wall

A while back I posted about street art that I found around Hochstadenring in Bonn (Dec 2025). What I omitted from that post was a section of the wall that was heavily covered with paste-ups, stickers, and other small pieces of street art. This is that section.

below: A red frog clings to a character that looks rather concerned about that large skull lurking behind him. I think that this is a good example of an interesting juxtaposition, whether intentional or accidental, that you can get when you have a collection of pieces from different artists together in one place.

below: The paste ups that reference art history (e.g. Rodin’s “The Thinker” and other statues) are the work of Jam Paste. In the center, “It’s not dreams that escape me, but reality”.

below: Several posters are here too – One says “WAS HATTEST DU AN!” (= What were you wearing!) while another proclaims, “das Kleben ist schön” (which translates to “pasting is beautiful”).

below: Another section with a lot going on including a Zastoj character with 2 X’s for eyes who holds a gun that is almost as big as he it. At the bottom, the striped shirt on that shape suggests Sailordude by TRP613 but his head is different – a collaboration with another artist? Perhaps Metraeda?

below: Once again, there is a lot happening here – from Jams Pastes version of the Thinker, to a small woman carrying a protest sign that says “Frieden, Bier, Sonne” – peace, beer, sun. My apologies to the artist of the latter piece – her name is written on the arm in the image but I can’t read it (b. chandre?).
Three of the paste ups are text, made like beer coasters, and these are by Bierdeckel Street Art.

The three beer coaster inspired paste ups:
1. “Wickl Dich Nicht Ich”: this translates roughly to “Don’t wrap yourself,
2. “Liebe das Leben”: This green sticker translates to “Love Life.”
3. “Be Kind To Your Mind”
