But I’ll have to settle for the book. And the exhibition that runs until November.

Saturday excursion
Friday, July 9th, 2010If you’re thinking about getting out of the city this weekend, here’s your destination: Art Biesenthal. Located about 25 km north of Berlin.

Artists:
Robert Barta, Michel de Broin, Thorsten Brinkmann, Andreas Gehrke, Franziska Cordes, Martin Flemming, Gregor Hildebrandt, Michael Kalki, Markus Keibel, Katja Kollowa, Alexej Meschtschanow, Ingo Mittelstaedt, Yudi Noor, Michael Sailstorfer, Rainer Sioda, Peter Welz
If you can’t make it tomorrow, go on

Melody meets minimal and flowers grow on paper too
Thursday, June 3rd, 2010My friend Sanna just released her super groovy EP Flowerhead exclusively on vinyl (300 copies, hurry up!)
The supernatural illustration on the cover was made by German artist Olaf Hajek who is currently doing an exhibition at Johanssen Gallery here in Berlin.
Your checklist:
1. Listen to Flowerheads on Sanna’s myspace profile.
2. Stop by Johanssen Gallery before July 20th to see Olaf’s beautiful, imaginative and spiritual work.

Indoor drive in cinema follow-up
Saturday, February 6th, 2010On Monday at 19:00 film critic Bert Rebhandl talks to Phil Collins (the artist behind the indoor cinema) about his work, about the exhibition at Temporäre Kunsthalle and about the history of drive-in cinemas (in English).
After the talk DJ Barry Burns (Berlin/Glasgow) will play a theme he composed for the Auto-Kino! trailer followed by a set of “naive positivism” (which is apparently electro, italo and other danceable sounds) at Montags Bar.
Free admission!
A cultural highlight !
Wednesday, January 27th, 2010I probably mentioned before, that I’m not much of a museum goer BUT maybe some of you readers are.
When I come to think of it, this is probably a good opportunity for me to overcome my phobias towards museums.
This Saturday is the 26. long night of the museums. Venues accross Berlin are open from 18:00 – 02:00, presenting special exhibitions, guided tours and various events.
