Otto Schade  

Rare Work by This Artist

I am offering this superb colored pencil drawing created by Otto Schade for the mural he painted at NV. Barbers in 2022. (See last photo.) The drawing depicts a royal guard holding a hunting rifle that he blows into. When he blows, he creates a hypnotic music that makes a cobra (crafted from a roll of banknotes) dance out of a basket.

This snake moves to the rhythm of the guard’s music but is sliced and enters the box. From the box, the banknotes spill out.

Created in 2022, dimensions: 30 x 21 cm.

Born in Chile in 1971, OTTO SCHADE is a talented contemporary urban artist and architect based in London. He began creating artwork in 1997, but truly emerged as an urban artist in 2009, after living in London for three years, where he began producing the vibrant art he is known for today.

Otto Schade is renowned for his surrealistic and sometimes abstract figurative paintings, as well as his powerful drawings and street art. He developed a unique and recognizable graphic style, using twisted and interwoven "ribbons" to depict his subjects.

For the past 13 years, Otto has exhibited and painted murals in Europe, America, Africa, and Asia.
