Fans of New Contemporary and Urban Art will be delighted to hear that the STROKE Urban Art Fair is moving from Munich to Berlin for its third edition this coming October. Not only the move from Munich to Berlin - the melting pot for urban and street art - but also the move from spring to fall makes a lot of sense to us because there will be a lot of art fairs and exhibitions taking place to that time during the Kunstherbst.
The venue will be The Station at Gleisdreieck that is also home to the Premium trade show during Fashion Week. We are particularily looking forward to their special exhibition When Bloggers become Artists where 10 bloggers were invited to create a piece of art that will be printed by Whitewall and exhibited at the fair. Participating blogs are LesMads, Amy&Pink, Ignant, Artschoolvets, Styleclicker, Uberding, Eve Without Adam, Whudat, Looky Looky and Suz is submitting something for iHeartBerlin.de.
After the jump you’l find a recap of the last STROKE.ARTFAIR as well as details for the next one.

George is an Australian curator who has put together many exhibitions here in Berlin for instance at her own gallery We Make Stuff Good at Stattbad or at Tape Modern and other places. Not being from Europe makes it a little tricky for her to stay here in Berlin, so her buddies of Stattbad are throwing a party for her at their new place called Pavilion which is right opposite Stattbad at Gerichtstr. 23. The profits should co-finance her visa and laywer. We wish her all the best!
And for those of you who are hungry for guestlists. We are raffling off tickets for the open air party Reisen Macht Den Kopf Frei in our Facebook group.
More parties for the coming days and the weekend after the jump!

Snax (Friday at the Skyy Swap Market)
Hooh! What’s up at former fun fair Plänterwald? I hope they have plans in case the rain doesn’t stop. Apart from that, the new shit: get your new outfit right at the party, no need to go shopping beforehand, just swap your clothes. What else is up, smaller though, right after the jump:

I have heard so much about this place. I always wanted to go, but I never really got quite round it. I’m talking about the Spreepark at Plänterwald. It’s that abandoned amusement park with a quite dramatic backstory. The owner and his son actually sit in prison for trying to smuggle drugs in one of their rides from Peru back to Berlin. It’s all really Hollywood actually.
This coming weekend I will finally have a chance to go to this mythical place. Luna Land is opening it’s doors there for a two-day party marathon with Tiefschwarz, M.A.N.D.Y, Matthew Johnson (live), Ame, Hugo, Un Homme et Une Femme, Crystalmafia, Joey Handsome and many more. A few more impression and the flyer after the jump. Win tickets in our facebook group.

While others dance the way they feel I will again not be able to participate to one of my favourite Contemporary Dance- festivals for holiday reasons. But I hope that some of you guys might take the chance to visit one of the several performances, workshops and lectures that the Tanz im August Festival offers. So stretch yourself and make your stiff body ready for some ballet action and I will think of you while sitting in the sun. I promise. A trailer of the festival with some nice Berlin impressions after the jump.

The crazy monkey up there does not bear much resemblance to extraordinary Karin Dreijer Andersson off-of Fever Ray. But it’s her anyway and it’s the teaser image for her upcoming release. It is a cover of Peter Gabriel’s Mercy Street that she has already performed live a couple of times. It drops supposedly today. After the jump a nice recording of her live version.
UPDATE: Well, they seemed to have not met their deadline. But now here it is: Only for a short time downloadable for free here. A wonderful track.

Pat Ferry (Saturday at backyard)
I was asked if all the good places in Berlin were secret! I don’t think so, really!
It seems the summer vacations come to an end, a bit more action this weekend, a secret open air in the middle of nowhere, a secret opening in Kreuzberg, secret ice cream during a party, just joking. Iam trying my best to give you all the information, read carefully, then go and find it! Parties after the jump:

I dedicate this post to my dear friend Franco from Scandinavia which is where this little story comes from…
Welcome to Barbieland! Here you see Barbie-Gym, upstairs there is a little party going on with a band and dancefloor and all that jazz. Downstairs we have the spa with jacuzzi, sauna and massages. It’s magical! But what is this really? And why does it have this vibe of weirdness about it? Find out after the gym - ehm, jump.
