STASILAND

Friday, November 18, 2011

Our friends at Ein Magazin über Orte recently published their latest issue dedicated to Berlin, and I’m really happy that they asked to include a few images of a series that I started working on quite a few years ago (and since then shamefully neglected), on the city’s layered past, in this case its East [...]

STORE OF THE MONTH: VOO / BERLIN

Tuesday, November 15, 2011

It was only a matter of time that Berlin’s Kreuzberg district would get its own proper fashion store. Lucky for us, it happened to be Voo, which has its own particular style of fashion, magazines, decent coffee and understatement that blends in perfectly with our favourite area. A great selection of designers including Henrik Vibskov, [...]

Monday, November 14, 2011

In the wake of the digital turn, the book is becoming a precious and extravagant superfluity and an aesthetic emblem. While the book is shifting from an inevitable cultural experience to a specialized one, the artist’s book undergoes an explosion of activity, proving once again that “when a medium dies, it becomes an art form.”

15 YEARS OF RASTER-NOTON

Friday, November 4, 2011

Speaking of music, tonight is a special night on an entirely different kind of wavelength: our friends at Raster-Noton will be celebrating their 15th anniversary at Berghain this evening, and they really threw in everything they have to offer (which is a lot), from our very first cover star Carsten Nicolai to Atom TM, from [...]

INSIDE THE SHIPS

Thursday, November 3, 2011

Just when you thought there are so few bands from Berlin, you remember one… Tarwater. With their 10th album just out, they’ve been around since 1995. Their new album is called Inside The Ships and was meant to be a space opera. The band tried their best but in the end did something completely different. [...]
