Vernissages / Group Show at Künstlerhaus Bethanien
Thursday 6th March – 7 until 10pm
The latest group of artists opening at Künstlerhaus Bethanien features a very special individual, known by many for his door policy etiquette but not so much for his photography. Head doorman at Berghain, Sven Marquardt is actually a rather talented photographer, his latest work unveiled this evening entitled ‚Nachtblende‘, will present portraits of women in East Berlin taken around 1990, and portraits of men taken as part of a collaboration for Hugo Boss in 2013. Other artists presenting their work this evening include Australian video artist Sam Smith and architecturally inspired Donna Ong.
We actually met Sven Marquardt next to Berghain and had a lovely talk with him about his artist career. You find the interview here: Sven Marquardt

Vernissage / Katie Armstrong at Eigen + Art Lab
Thursday 6th March – 5 until 9pm
The first solo exhibition in Berlin by New York based artist Katie Armstrong, ‚Dark Spring‘ will present amongst other pieces two new video works by the artist. The video ‚interlude‘ (the trailer for which you can see here, below) was created during Armstrong’s artist-in-residence at Axel Springer’s Plug & Play Accelerator in Berlin, and deals with the relationship we have with technology in our modern day world. Armstrong uses traditional hand drawn animation techniques to create her pieces, scanning them together after the initial drawing and adding sequencing and music.

Film Festival / Berlin Feminist Film Week 2014
Saturday 8th March until Thursday 13th March
Are you a feminist? Before answering, ask yourself, do you believe in equal rights for men and women? If the answer is yes, then essentially yes, you are. Even in our modern day society people seem to have a problem with the label, something which the recent destruction of posters promoting the event seems to prove. Starting on Saturday Berlin Feminist Film Week will celebrate women both in front of and behind the camera, with a series of shorts and full length, feature films across a great variety of venues including Babylon and Villa Neukölln. And no, of course you don’t have to be a woman to attend one of the screenings.
