Hello, Bertrand!
Bertrand is the first Frenchman of 2018 intern cycle, who joined the team at SAMA on the 12 of February 2018. Within a few days he got the nickname “BeBe”, mainly because it’s faster and easier to pronounce. He is quiet, focused and good at observing his surroundings. Probably these are good qualities for his work and moreover necessary skills which we need to build a functioning team. Bertrand comes from the small town Saint-Martin-en-Haut which is between Lyon and Saint Eti

Hello, Martin!
This week I was asked to Interview Martin Naundorf, who is currently doing volunteer work for SAMA (Street Art Museum Amsterdam). He will tell about himself, where he comes from and what he will be doing for SAMA during his time Amsterdam. Hi Martin can you please tell me who are you, where you’re from and can you tell me something about the place you live or come from? I’m Martin (23) and originally I’m from Germany. I moved from Berlin to Amsterdam to do a semester abroad.

Hello, Tristan!
Every morning, I take a photo of Tristan’s bright colorful socks. They peek out of his pants and he laughs when he tells you about his collection that’s full of patterns and prints. Tristan is a 21 year old student from Amsterdam, born and raised in the Nieuw West. He’s working with us at the Street Art Museums as an intern and is currently studying Cultural Heritage at Reinwardt Academy. To earn money he delivers mail and gives tours at SAMA, so he has excellent knowledge of

Painting with Uriginal and Irene
On the 12th of January 2018, I went to assist two great artist Uri & Irene near Ten Katestraat, just outside of Huygens College. This was the 2nd day of production and Anna was super excited when I finally arrived. My task was to support the artists through the production. On the street. The weather wasn't all that pleasant, it was very cold and very windy. In fact it was awful. I was genuinely surprised by Uri and Irene's ability to continue to work so hard without any signs

A NEVER ENDING STORY ABOUT AMSTERDAM, STREET ART & PARIS - PARIS ON
CHAPTER 3: PARIS ON (A FANCY FAIR) When the Fair’s opening commenced, SAMA’s stand was finalized: each wall and corner was shining with raw material, genuine art and committed individuals. Last elements were added, recent finds among which, another wooden closet door (found the night before in front of a crappy Chinese diner) that Moste painted, or Vincent’s belongings. This first day was about press visiting and vernissage partying, the rest of the week would be about regula

Behind Street Art or Active Learning
Day1 - Illustrating with MOSTE My first day at SAMA was nice - I didn't have to do too much. My work was illustrating and studying more on Keith Haring. It was kind of like an introduction by Moste (Ricardo Moste), a very cool artist from Mexico. We were preparing some illustrations for the upcoming event (Keith Haring Family Day at Stedelijk Museum) and spent a few hours drawing symbols based on Keith Haring's art, along with some keywords to 'get people started'. We ended u

A NEVER ENDING STORY ABOUT AMSTERDAM, STREET ART & PARIS - PARIS
CHAPTER 2: LANDING AS LOONIES, STANDING AS STARS The morning was young and wet, but on this Wednesday, the 11th of October, our brave SAMA crew was waiting in the cold of Sloterdijk station to take a coach to Bercy station. Three people, one huge suitcase full of t-shirts, two luggages of personal stuffs, one big box of art material and a wooden painted door got on board, travelled together across Netherlands, Belgium and finally, France. Landing in Paris was tough, lonely a
