Free exhibition of the artist LKN in Carlos III of Pamplona for a month

LKN acts at night and stealthily. Create and exhibit overnight, in unexpected corners of the city. Any facade, any board becomes a canvas for him, in a game where surprise and the ephemeral are co-protagonists.

Throughout the last five years this anonymous artist He has managed to create an expectation and have a significant number of followers, who appreciate his street works, in which he intersperses free representations of people from the political, social, sporting and cultural news of Pamplona and Navarra.

A good part of these works are now visible together in the street, their usual setting. Carlos III Avenue, at the height of the bullfighting monument, converts until November 24 in an open-air exhibition hall, where citizens will be able to see fifteen of his most representative works.

There will be some of the most controversial paintings, like “The Kiss”, which was originally in front of the seat of the Parliament of Navarra, where it represents the president of Navarre, María Chivite, and then spokesperson of EH Bildu in Parliament, Bakartxo Ruiz. Others also which aroused passions like “Santo Roberto”, in homage to the Osasuna player Roberto Torres, immortalized under the name of Jesus Christ “Salvator Mundi”, with a ball in his hand, or the singer Amaia Montero in the role of the Virgin Mary, under the title “The Queen of Pop”.

All will coexist in the same space, in an exhibition entitled “Pray for me.” The title of the exhibition is a nod to a letter to the editor published in response to one of his exhibitions, in which a prayer was requested for the artist.

In response to this request, LKN campaigns for freedom of expression, showing not one but fifteen of his works in conversation, in complicity. These are reproductions of the original works, made to original size, printed on aluminum panels. There you can see the artist’s representation of the footballer Nico Williams, in the work “Orígenes” or of the actress Clara Galle, in her work “Clara y Pura”, among others.

Due to its location, the exhibition will be open to all types of public, with the artist’s aim of bringing his work closer to each of the citizens of Pamplona. It is precisely about one of the reasons why an open space was chosentransit, instead of locking the sample in a showroom. Another reason lies in the nature of street art, transgressive and satirical, which does not want to lose its origins and its reason for being: the street.

The works can be touched, seen up close and even They can be photographed and recorded by those who come to see them. The exhibition indeed opens the door to the creative world of LKN, in a close and magical way.

This is not the first time LKN has shown his work with the help of Pamplona City Hall. He has already done so in 2021, in Condestable, with around twenty paintings created during his first two years of life. He is now going through his first five years of creation, showing the evolution of the themes, but without abandoning his style, which makes him unique. What emerged as a clandestine creation, which was going to be unique in time, is now five years old, but retaining the essence of this furtive and clandestine art which emerges in the light of the moon.
