"Make your world more interesting!" — that's the motto of The Raum für Illustration (RFI), located on the charming Paul-Roosen-Straße in Hamburg, St. Pauli. It truly captures the essence of this multifaceted venue. Whether you're buying art or simply soaking in the creative atmosphere, RFI is a place where art comes alive.
It is a vibrant hub of creativity and design. More than just a gallery, RFI encompasses a studio and shop, showcasing a diverse array of illustration work from both emerging and established artists.
The space bursts with colorful world of zines, prints, and even T-shirts. Recently, visitors had the unique opportunity to purchase stickers from various artists, which could be directly printed onto T-shirts they brought with them, adding a personalized touch to their fashion.
Regularly transformed for exciting exhibitions, events such as summer parties and book release gatherings make RFI a dynamic place to explore.
