Humanism means that the human being is at the center of all thoughts. Taking a step further, transhumanism means that the human being, as we know him, is abolished and is then redesigned or transformed. Improved, of course. Nietzsche can be seen with his “superhuman” as a father of the original principle: “Man is something…...

Still highly in demand: 50 % of our works our still cover ups. Not without a reason  - back in 2015 we had many enquiries and also we had over night TV and Radio channels at our doors. Laszlo is not a TV guy but we appreciate it so much he explains his works and…...

We are very proud to say that our colleague and friend James Tattoo Art from Budapest will be a guest at Augustenstr 73 at the end of September. We don't need to add much – whoever counts in the industryalready knows the name James more than well – regardless of where you are on the…...

It has been years since we came into contact with Fantasia Art Supply. After months of talking and testing the colors, a friendship has developed which we greatly appreciate. Brian from Fantasia in Texas, USA always informs us about news and we coordinate the composition and usability of the latest developments together. This creates an…...

... but what does NEW mean" – David is constantly making new designs to the delight of his customers. Also available on request – or at an appointment that has already been booked. The advantage is that the motifs are always individual and adapted to the customer's request. Of course, his style should not be…...

Snakes as a motif Snakes have found their permanent place in many mythologies. Opinions regarding their meanings are very different. For many people, snakes are the main cause of discomfort, fear and disgust. This is despite the fact that hardly anyone has personal experience with the reptiles that are naturally shy. It is the horror…...

We can still vividly remember the sigh of relief that was triggered by the permission to reopen our studio. Of course, we have been paying even more attention to hygiene and cleanliness since then. In the meantime, people have become accustomed to the new restrictions, the only really noticeable changes are the obligations to wear…...

...now, wait a minute. Are we reading everything correctly, what’s going on at the moment? Tattoo studios across Germany were only allowed to reopen in May. Hygiene measures were important and have all been implemented. There has not been a single case of COVID – whether through us or our colleagues – and do decisions…...

To vaccinate or not to vaccinate? To provide clarity, we are neither anti-vaccination nor advocates (whoever is behind it whether it is good or not). We just want to do our job again and do it responsibly. The first approval for the vaccine is in the UK and it is probably just a matter of…...

The tattoos are trending and don't seem to want to change. However, especially today, there is a big discrepancy in the most popular trends. On the one hand, small inconspicuous motifs are becoming more and more popular, on the other hand, there have never been as many neck and finger tattoos as now. But where…...

COMPLAINT AGAINST CORONA REGULATION (Saarland) Something is progressing! This time the effort was definitely worth it! So it is worthwhile to standing up for yourself and all the tattoo artists! Tattoo and piercing studios in Saarland are now allowed to reopen – from here it is only a matter of time before it can start…...

SCHWABING-MAXVORSTADT-AU-HAIDHAUSEN TATTOO ANANSI WILL BE BIGGER Admittedly; we and our tattoo colleagues have very different problems at the moment than expanding our business. We all have to get through the Covid-19 Lockdown Phase 2, which is not so easy for all of us. In 2015, we opened our small shop on Leopoldstraße, which is around…...

Our earth is 70% covered with water and yet so little is known about the world's oceans. Therefore, it isnot surprising that many people feel such a high fascination for the water world. The sea can be soothing when you stand on the beach and look into the infinite expanse of sea level. But it…...

Tattoo Anansi takes the current situation relaxed, but also very seriously. The current Corona measures are discriminatory and unjustifiable against our industry. Figures cannot prove the closures and bans. Now we can reiterate what everyone has mentioned 100 times, - everyone knows that we have 10 – 20 times fewer customers than, for example, a…...

A few years ago, there was hardly a tattoo that had no meaning. Every tattoo immortalized on the skin of the wearers had a story; was meant to remind of something important or was a symbol of the goals inlife. Some are tired of the meaningful motifs and so the ignorant style began. In doing…...

Now all gyms in the Free State are allowed to reopen for personal training. The Administrative Court in Bavaria has overturned the complete closure of gyms. An operation ban – and as we have already mentioned: violations of the principle of equal treatment – is therefore clear discrimination,, say thejudges. The Bavarian Corona Ordinance has therefore…...

David has had a mad development since he started getting tattooed by us – since then, one tattoo tops the next. We are very pleased that our colleague has found his style and technique so quickly. He can hardly be stopped and is moving at the speed of light. It is high time for an…...

Current status: Dates can be made starting in December. Is it worth making appointments now when everything is so uncertain? Yes, because you have to expect long waiting times. Deposits are securely retained – booked appointments take priority. In addition, we must logically be able to plan for our livelihoods and be able to continue…...

Pushed to the limits – Ed Hardy struggles with his demons People who take to the streets these days with Ed Hardy clothes or accessories don't have it easy. They stand out negatively. The once so conscious provocation with artificial luxury now only appears amateurish. Too much trash: rhinestones, pseudo-kitschy skulls with flaming hearts, ornate…...

"It's really an art to make a tattoo. Just to find the motif phew.... at the ARTMUC in Munich / from Thursday, November 8th through Sunday, November 11th, 2018 /... I may not find any tattoos for me, but hundreds of ideas on how to design my tattoo..." That's what Trotsky the dog says. And…...

The comic style sparkles with energy and joie de vivre. Presumably this is why so many can be tattooed on a motif or in this style. As the name suggests, the style has the look of comic books, a splendor of color coupled with a certain sense of humor in the foreground. Motifs for this…...

As expected, James' visit at the end of September was a little sensation at our Anansi home. With Jameswe had a good old friend and probably the most famous face of the Hungarian and now worldwide tattoo scene with us in Augustenstraße. Mainly Joe Brigi, however also Ritchey and Mimi got to know the great…...

Would you like to tell us your story and discuss your tattoo with one of our artists alone? Possibly outside of the appointment times? Or do you just have more questions you would like some clarification on? Book a 60 minute consultation with one of our artists (for a fee) using the contact form. Please…...

TattooCon 2019 in Dortmund is a very well-known event - and this year we are there! Fantastic artists, an incredible event - it's definitely worth being there - because we're there with David.  And even more: we still have dates to offer. Take the opportunity - Anything about Blackwork, Neo-Traditional, Line, Dot you can send…...
