Yesterday I entered the Heitsch Gallery. First I got captured by the poligon-works of Moto Waganari aka Lutz Wagner, or rather Lutz Wagner aka Moto Waganari. However. His 3D-grid-sculptures apear as they are thrown into light-installations, mirroring themselves in clear 2D on the walls. Some of them are hanged up and they move very slowly, taken by soft turbulences within the premises, performing changing formations with their shadows.

“Tape” by Moto Waganari

“Skydiver” by Moto Waganari

“Beretta” by Moto Waganari

“Fiction” by Moto Waganari

“Baby Prayer” by Moto Waganari

In another room abstract paintings by Antonio Marra and sculptures by Yoshiyuki Miura where waiting to be seen and absorbed.

Three pictures in one. The perspective makes the deal. A multi-dimensional painting: “Fernwehfreude” [Wanderlust pleasure] by Antonio Marra.

One more multi-dimensional painting: “Die Logik des immer Mehr” [The logic of more and more] by Antonio Marra. The artist works with holographic furrows reflecting new variations of op-art and orphism.

Impressions of Yoshiyuki Miuras sculptures, which apparently have no titel.

All in all a very nice exhibition and it was a pleasure having a walk-through [Thanx to Bianca & Felix for company]. It is still running till the 23th of february 2013 and is definitely worth visiting.

You can find more and deeper information about the artists at Gallery Heitsch [Website >>].

Deepest Winter in Munich can’t stop art! Yesterday I managed slogging myself through the snow to visit the opening of the exhibition “Consume against all reason” (Konsumieren wider aller Vernunft) at Galerie Stephan Stumpf. The show is still running till the 23th of february [flyer pdf >>]. All the artworks examine critical thoughts about consumerism. There are a lot of things to see on three levels. Since I got sucked into the basement first I will start from bottom to top with the impressions:

In the very last room in the cellar is a screening of the truly remarkable stop-motion-short-movie “weirdo’s Brain” by Bianca Kennedy. You should definitely grap a seat and watch protagonist Lenny in his surreal world, freaking out completely after trying to get down with an inflatable doll, falling even deeper in even more surrealistic rooms, finding strange tasks. [Website of Bianca Kennedy >> Youtube-Channel >>]

Grandmas recycled cups by Anka Büchler [Website >>] (Thanx to Illian and Patrizia for modeling on the picture)

“Finger” by Fabian Fontain [Website >>]

“Seibutsuga” (Japanese for still life) by Giuseppe Fiore [Website >>]

“reCODE me VICTIMS” by Barbara Rapp [Website >>]

On my way back up from the basement I got hit by the performance “Berries of Wrath” by Carolin Weinert where she eats and disgorges strawberries into a bowl. The performance is finished when the bowl is empty (!) [Website >>]

Photography by Ute Friederike Schernau. Pretty hard to take proper fotos there, I couldn’t remove all the humans [Website >>]

“Portrait”, sort of a braiding made of packaging film by Anna Schulz-Pitsch [Website >>]

And finally the great Oilpainting “Cempedaks Aufbruch – Stachelquell” by Illian Sagenschneider [Website >>]

There were two more artist but I was unable to take accurate pictures of their work. I am terribly sorry about that! Photography by Jan van Ijken [Website >>] and paintings of Marcus Günther [Website >>] (You can find a nice painting of him on the flyer to the exhibition >>).

Today I entered the Richard Tator Cult Szosziety at an exhibition in munich and I was astonished by some great artworks and by the performance of the guy Richard Tator himself. I am not sure if he is one person or the four of them. Let’s keep it a secret! But anyway in total it was a nice show! The exhibition is still running till the 18.12.2012 in the subwaystation of university, munich! Make a visit! Its worth it!

Flicking through my folders with photos I just found the photos of this funky exhibition from last month called “Stress Ratio – Spannungsverhältnis” which took place at the Provisorium in Munich. I always knew that Veronika Christine Dräxler [>>] is an excellent writer, but now I found out that she is a very talented artist as well. She presented her painting “Liquid Molly”, which I liked a lot, even if she said herself, that she didn’t touch any brush or colour before that since childhood. Apart from that, artworks were shown by Michaela Herzog, Fabian Bross, Florian Aigner, Valentina Eppich and Julian Schulz. All in all nice works. Thanks to the Provisorium for an interesting evening! If you wish to see the picture “Liquid Molly” live and a lot of other cool stuff, you should visit the Galeria Autonomica at this OFF-Location in Berlin: Münzstrasse 20, Berlin-Mitte, by Metro U8 – Weinmeisterstrasse – Exit Münzstrasse; Vernissage on Friday, the 21th of September 2012, from sixish p.m. till open end; Finnissage on Saturday, 22nd of September 2012, from twelve a.m. till open end. It’s definitely worth it!

Ok! This was nice for once: Last Thursday and Friday the AABER AWARD 2012 opened temporary doors at an old police-station in Munich, which will be razed down in a while. The second day I went there to be confused by over 65 rooms with artworks, installations and performances. All in all a felicitous event! The first place went, not surprisingly, to Botho Willer and his great sound-sculpture. Pure interactive fun of creating noise with a piece of artwork. Second place went to Camill von Egloffsteins Cockayne (Schlaraffenland), which was assembled by two nice paintings placed in an installation of a cowshed stuffed with empty burger-boxes. Nice! Well done! The third place went to the photo-project HAUT, which I didn’t really see, but no wonder, there was just too much to absorb; and besides I made far too many photos, so I will just present my personal best-off here [Sorry about that: I can’t remember who is who and what is what for some of the things]…

Sorry for all the images I can’t show. Further information you might be able to gather here >>

Yesterday I had the pleasure visiting the exhibition of the Artist Noureddine Chater (born 1975 in Marrakesch). The event took place under the theme “Art in the northafrican spring” in the Hops-Museum in Wolnzach. Besides the nice calligraphic Artworks, there was a great arabic buffet and finally a brilliant bellydance-performance. [Thanx to the Kastners for the invitation]

For the purpose of checking my new camera I took this picture at the Riviera in Munich.
And I gotta say: Funky, goody, dooo, the G1 Lumix. I hate making advertising, but whoooo!

Check out the tasty fischmac-advertisement on the polluted Huangpu-river in Shanghai.
Mmmmmm. Yummi! Thnx to Q.B.

These photos were taken on a walk through downtown Munich last summer.
We found this crazy showcase of some shop (I forgot what it was. Ads don’t hit me no more).
On the picture in the middle you can spot my mate Martin.

Once again the U.A.M.O (Urban Art & Media Organisation) festival took place in Munich City.
And they surprised with some nice pieces of Art (Like the Cephalopodas of Joe Image). And it
was a nice party as well. There are too many pictures, so I can only show a quick review of it.

The crew of Karl110, C. Behr, Alive and Pusher (who missed the show) put up this funky
lemon-squeezy-machine and produced a lot of good mood for the visitors…

Well visited festival. So a lot of people had a look at the new picture of Adrian Schober, 3,99…

The contribution of Jon Torre, Raingirls…

The Black Bloc introduction-kit of Sebastian Perdighe, visitors looking at a doodle of Noem Held…

Cultivated humans observing the meat-collage of Lisa Meier, look at the close-up… (I like meat!)

Surprise! The police popped in too. I’m not sure if the reason was an interest of Art…

I liked this work by Loki so much that I just nicked it from the Wooster Collective…
