Abstract: Through his works, the contemporary art creator does not tend to represent only the aesthetic interface of the social environment, but, first of all, to develop suggestive and deep messages related to everyday challenges, his work being able to have an interactive role and, at the same time, an educational purpose. In this context, the street pastels of the visual artist Kurt Wenner are edifying images that meet the public, interfering with the latter in its pedestrian environment, in both a pavement and parietal display. The dominant subjects of his works attract by bringing back to attention the values of classical and ancient culture as well as by complex compositional schemes substituted for extremely accentuated perspective axes.
