Flying Fortress

“The Art of Rebellion” I & II sold more than 70.000 copies world-wide.


Flying Fortress, who named himself after a World War II bomber long time ago, the creator of the always on the go being Teddy Troops, has origin in Munich and is rooted in graffiti culture. From Bavaria, which is probably better known for exporting beer than those subversive teddy bears, Flying Fortress troops march out into the world. As rockers, roadies or cannibals these helmeted guys riot and cause high spirits from Los Angeles, to Munich or Hong Kong. "Part of Rebellion # 1 Flying Fortress" doesn’t only show the peacefull Teddy Troops in the streets, in galleries, on stickers, skate boards or as vinyl toys, but also Flying Fortress collaborations with other artists such as Pez or The London Police Crew – and of course with Dave the Chimp and their collective project “Visual Rock Stars”. Completed is the whole thing by illustrations and t-shirt designs for labels such as Stüssy, Fenchurch or Hessenmob.




"Part of Rebellion" shall be the answer to all those books about street art, which are put into the market without having any relation to the scene. Every four months a new volume will be published, next artist will be Flying Fortress colleague Dave the Chimp from London.
