An Artist Talks with Victor Landeta, 26.05.2011, Kunsthaus Tacheles, Berlin.

Victor Landeta comes from a family of painters. His grand-father, his father and him are painters. He has studied in London graphic design and moved to Berlin a couple of years ago to  build experience.
He has developed his talent within the field of graphiti. He lived in Bilbao in Spain and has also travelled alot with his sister at first, then alone, and recently with his partner.

He finds his inspiration in foreign asian cultures and beliefs. He documents his research with photography and uses them to create his characters and portraits. His use of mixed media techniques are a mix of both painting and printing layered together, to create new effects inside the landscapes and portraits.

His family supports him to help him go through this period of creativity, until he finds a gallery and structures himself. Alike all young artists, it is a difficult choice to find a way to support your work and have a family life.

He also works on a organizational level and creates events with artists in Berlin, mostly musical events, often in the Kunsthaus Tacheles in the Goldener Saal Theater. The parties are called "Underground Society " check out the Kunsthaus program for up coming events.This organizational experience  has been very successfull. 

Victor Landeta has also started to work as a vj, through the graphic design study and has work with several djs and groups.. He has worked with Dj Trauko, A guy called Gerald and also vjed in a performance festival in the Werkstatt der Kulturen, last year called "Home sweet Home" with the group Egypt 77.

  1. Cuando alguien obtiene la satisfaccion de poseer,aunque solo sea por la vista un cuadro...siente una emoción...una sensacion que lo transporta a sus sueños.Mi padre antes de dormir siempre se metia en su cuadro Cumbres del Eretza...Los "Landetas" valen porque su obra continua....j.Landeta.
