Kunstrasen is a German stencil artist who derives his name from the German term for Astroturf.  In addition to a sly bit of wordplay, kunst=art, and rasen=speeding in German, his chosen moniker is relevant to lots of questions in the art world today, relating to issues of authenticity, mimicry, and mass production.  Kunstrasen’s artwork makes comments which question everyone’s relationship to art, especially within urban and street art genres.
