Acclaimed artists from across Europe have confirmed they will be attending the Nuart Festival in Aberdeen.

German duo Herakut, French artist Julien de Casabianca and Scot, based in London, Robert Montgomery will all be part of the spectacular street art festival that takes place in Aberdeen from April 14-16.

This is the first time the Nuart Festival, which originated in the Norwegian city of Stavanger, has come to the UK.

The event provides artists with a platform to showcase their work to the public through site-specific murals, installations, interventions, and temporary exhibitions and 11 artists have already signed up.

Herakut comprises artists Jasmin Siddiqui (Hera) and Falk Lehmann (Akut).

They started working together in 2004 and have displayed their art all over the world.

Mr de Casabianca is a visual artist and filmmaker.

The Frenchman is known for embellishing streets around the world with portraits of characters plucked from classical paintings.

Mr Montgomery is known for conceptual art and has had solo exhibitions at venues in Europe and in Asia.

Adrian Watson, chief executive of Aberdeen Inspired, is looking forward to the event.

He said: “We are hugely excited to be bringing an art festival of this scale and stature to Aberdeen.

“Nuart is hugely popular in its Stavanger birthplace and it is a huge coup for us to be holding it in our city.

“It is an honour to announce the first four incredibly talented and thought provoking artists that will be taking part in the festival.”
