Yes, it seems to be true.
Quote from Kurt Wenner's artist atatement: "In 1984, Wenner invented an art form all his own that has come to be known as anamorphic or illusionistic street painting. The form of perspective known as anamorphism was used by the great European Masters to give the illusion of soaring architecture and floating figures in ceiling frescoes. Wenner adjusted this geometry to create compositions that seemed to rise from and fall into the ground. In anamorphic perspective, painted forms appear as three-dimensional when viewed from one point in space. Wenner created a special pictorial geometry that corrected the specific distortion caused by viewing his large images at an oblique angle. The number of newspaper and magazine articles, television spots, ads, and documentaries featuring his work are too lengthy to list." ~ http://www.kurtwenner.com/images/PDFs/Artist_Statement.pdf
Also, here's a quote from Edgar Mueller: "But Kurt Wenner was the first guy who used anamorphic illusion for street paintings. His skill and drawing technique is perfect always look like a renaissance master painting." ~ http://www.metanamorph.com/faq.html
