Dutch artist Mick La Rock redesigned the approximately 70 square metre façade of the district library at Solmitzstraße 26 in Lübeck-Kücknitz.

Mick La Rock is Europe's grande dame of cans. She has been marking her artistic territory since 1983, first in her native Groningen, later travelling between New York and Amsterdam. Her list of collaborations with scene legends is of novel proportions, and in recent years she has also become an increasingly sought-after curator for exhibitions on the history of graffiti, in which she herself has played such a key role.

The starting point of her most recent works is the question: "What does a letter do when it no longer needs to be read?" In her answers to this question, she alienates every element of her old graffiti name into radical abstraction, away from its original essence and composition. Her minimalist two- and three-dimensional works show influences of brutalist architecture and abstract art of the early 20th century.
