by Adela Lovric, 30 Sep 2013Last week's events weren't about seeing as many as possible like the week before, but they did keep some of the festive glow. From the posh L40 to the happy-go-geeky LEAP, each one was packed and full of positive energy. People were talkative and friendly, especially in places where the glasses were... -
by Adela Lovric, 23 Sep 2013Aufwiedersehen Berlin Art Week, see you next year! Slightly exhausted and highly inspired, we look back on all of the places we visited and (dis)liked (read the first two diaries of our pilgrimage through the art venues of Berlin here & here).

by Adela Lovric, 8 Sep 2013FRIDAY 06.07 Berlin Masters @ Arndt An exhibition of works by selected master students from two Berlin art universities turned out to be the most exciting opening this week. There were more people in the gallery than seeds in a pomegranate, and still nobody wanted to give up on jostling their way in and through the... -
by Adela Lovric, 1 Sep 2013WEDNESDAY 28.08 Languageleaps @ Galeria Plan B Recently I got the feeling that Tyrannousaurus Rex (known as T-Rex) is getting quite popular. Like an icon. I have met one here as a star of a poem written by Hanne Lippard. I would call it the same word I have heard from the audience after...
