Last night we had a lovely evening with Gemma and friends as we celebrated the opening of her exhibition at the Kunstbox as part of Pictoplasma, but earlier in the day Sandra and I decided to take a walk through Mitte and explore some of the other venues and artists that are taking part. It was fun to explore such a familiar neighbourhood with a different purpose, looking out for those pinky-orange flags hanging from the drainpipe, before stepping into galleries, shops and other spaces, some of which I had never been in before.
Of course, everyone has their own tastes, and I can only offer up mine, but I especially enjoyed the work of Julia Bott at Bold on Torstraße, Andy Rementer’s Pronto at The Early Bird Hype on Rosa-Luxemburg-Straße, and Jon Fox and Dan Arnold at Zentralbuero on Karl-Liebknecht-Straße, where the boys from Bristol were still painting their massive mural when we stumbled across them. You can find out more about all the different venues and artists on the Character Walk on the Pictoplasma website, and here are some more pictures…
