..one of the last untouched non profit art spaces in berlin presents ENCORE open art festival. ARTY mammoths in berlins backyards…welcome to the ….MMX Open Art Venue / Encore MMXi…:this open art venue is part of the famous transmediale festival….for sure this is a must go and see art event..vernissage is on the 28th january, 6 p.m. – 10 p.m. on linienstr.142-143

MMX open art venue is an artist run, non-profit space that has existed for one year in Berlin’s commercial gallery street Linienstraße in Mitte. Run by Berlin-based photographer Jonathan Gröger,

artist Rebecca Loyche from New York and American Jason Burgess also make up the team. MMX occupies the ground floor and surrounding garden area of one of the last untouched, unrenovated buildings on Linienstraße. The art space transformed out of a squatted dilapidated building into one of Berlin’s most popular alternative art venues overnight. There is a concentration on presenting qualitative but underexposed art throughout the +1000sqm that MMX occupies with its several gallery rooms, video screening room, music venue space, back courtyard, and one of the only front gardens in the district. MMX strives to bring people and art together by presenting exhibitions, film screenings, lectures, musical performances, and unique weekly events.



…berlin fashion week unexpecetd new talents

   
..2 of the highlight shows that surprised us concerning creativity and power. both collections are quiet new, but we think there is a massive potentail in both lines:
schmidttakahashi is a berlin based duo working on conceptual recycling .. amazing details and poetry in the show on wednesday evening…picts and fresh talent from romania…after the jump

romanian designers show @the bebelplatz was really tough late after (10 p.m) the  a.f.vandevorst show at 10 a.m and the complete day researching at the premium…BUT … 2 collections paid off 180 % : alina botea, and most of allthe show lucian broscatean was breathtaking. great colours, minimal shapes but with powerful volumes, a kind of yamamoto meets street and minimal art.
lucian broscatean : we are sure…..we wil hear from him in the future !!!
schmidttakahashi : recycling couture


…berlin fashion week bbb_premium

   

premium and bread and butter day one and two: crowded like never before in the 9 years that we visit the shows. buyers from all mayor countries, great collections, and … the most important fact: all the 170 brands we interviewed on both fairs mentioned the  the high level and quality of the buying  teams … see the selection of the best styling directions _ street shots  after the jump…
