Feeling attraction to an artist because of his work is kind of weird. After a while you can’t really say if the love you feel is bringing you to the point of not being objective anymore about the art itself. Nevertheless being in love with Mr. Pollesch, one of the most amazing theater directors on earth, has never let me doubt my taste in theater (and men). I was always struck down by lightning before, during and after every piece that I saw and I enjoyed them as other people would enjoy sex or drugs. So, is it relevant what the source of your pleasure is? Or is the pleasure itself the key element in our decisions of consumption. Now I can attend to my pleasures even digitally through Pollesch’s Blog.
If you can you should check out his new piece Kill Your Darlings, premiering on Wednesday at Volksbühne and promissing a lot of intelectual mindsex. Dates and details after the jump.

Helloooo 2012. We were thinking a lot if we should do a 2011 recap or a 2012 forecast. But, frankly I’ve seen quite enough of these on the big wide interdolly and I want to spare you yet another. So let’s get 2012 rolling with our event of the first week. We have the usual mix of art, movies, parties and other opportunities for a fun night after the jump.

I am quite in love with Scandinavian design, fashion and interiors. But I never got the chance to learn more about their perfomance art scene. Today the Nordwind Festival starts at Volksbühne. So, I finally get the chance to get rid of this culture lack in my head. Recommendations for specific parts of the festival will be done when I have actually see any of the perfomances. But for now I hope you will check out the program and perhaps also dance at the opening party tonight at HBC.

Most of the time we are used to taking. Take a photo, take some time, take a piss, take the cake, take that. How about this week we do a little giving. And what giving feels better than one that includes taking also? Take a piece of art, give money to charity for instance. Swell! Take this, as well as short films, concerts, gallery openings, workshops, parties and much more, as usual after the jump!

This week starts big with those few Halloween parties that took the timing a bit more serious. On Wednesday we have a re-opening of an old familiar party in a brand new club, on Thursday we’ll also meet an old familiar dinner club coming back to life, while Friday and Saturday are an eclectic mix of music, art, fashion and parties. The details after the jump.

Meet Protectorama. She has the blue skin of Smurfette, a red-haired wig from Tori Amos, a sporty avant-gardistic dress by Bernhard Willhelm and crazy high red latex heels stolen from Lady Gaga. She is a world-healing witch and she lives in the world-healing forrest and is mostly babbling on about her world-healing ritual that involves a lot of cell phone LED lights and the random contents of a couple of Kinder surprise eggs. Despite all this extravaganza she talks like a dude.
Last Saturday the Hebbel theatre transformed its HAU1 and HAU2 houses into a multi-disciplinary wonderland of stage art. While the main building at HAU1 was taken over by the performance group basso who transformed it into a Funeral Charade of Poses with multiple installations and performances taking place all over the building, the HAU2 was hosting several experimental performances by young artists from different schools and classes, including students from the Städelschule in Frankfurt am Main and from the Institut für Raumexperimente by Olafur Eliasson, UdK Berlin and many more.
A lot of crazy impressions of this magical night, including many more of the lovely Protectorama, right after the jump – on 2 pages…

Imagine yourself in a mystical place, a playground of beauty and immersion of senses. Picture it in your mind and you might get a glimpse of the Lunapark that took place at the Spreepark last weekend. Unfortunately, masses of amateur photographers where walking up and down the abandoned amusement park in search for the best shot. Several times I was in situation like that. Visiting Venice, the pyramids or even Japan. And so I knew that the best way to enjoy the experience was to simply let the others disappear around you and use your imagination to create your own world. Helping the immersion from reality to fantady was the Alternative Reality Game called Spreezone that started at Lunapark. The goal is to create a giant amusement park in the whole city! More paparazzi shots of my own after the jump.
