On the 27th and 28th of August 2011 fifteen of Berlin's finest screen printers will come together under one roof to display their talents, collaborate with each other and showcase their work. Druck Berlin 2011 will be held at the Stattbad in Wedding and hosted by Berlin based screen printers 'Mother-Drucker'.

This 2 day festival is the perfect opportunity for you to gain an insight into Berlin's silk screen print scene. During the two days artists and printers will be working with a range techniques such as art printing on paper, yardage, book and fanzine printing, large scale mural printing and much much more.

Unlike U - Trainwriting in Berlin ... was about to be released on DVD but release was denied after a lawsuit by Berlin Transport Services, so the originators put it online...
thought it might be of interest for you all.. German language but English subtitles

Forgive me if someone posted about this before, but I visited one of the best exhibits I EVEr saw on the weekend and wanted to share it...

Since I'm all too used to not seeing any kind of prints I like other than buying them myself, I was totally floored when I entered the current exhibition at me Collectors Room in Berlin yesterday. While I expected thousands of vinyl toys and maybe some art prints, I was treated to some massive walls full of Obey, Faile, Banksy, JR, Blek, Swoon and what have you not.





The real jaw-dropper for me, however, came after climbing a flight of stairs:





(Sorry for the poor picture quality, I only had my iPhone with me and the lighting was pretty dim).

I NEVER expected to be able to view almost all of Josh's prints side by side and couldn't believe my luck. Sooo cool!

And, really, there is sooo much more. I definitively plan to visit again, and bring looots of time

So, if anyone contemplated a visit to Berlin until the fall, I urge you to stop by this exhibit. It's WELL worth it!

[Shoot Again]

When does it finish ? I might give it a shot visiting my cousin there ;-)

[Deleted]

isnt this the show from the collection of one guy? a forum member (gallery owner too???) My memory is very poor but it looks like I've seen that wall of shep before!

All? I don't see a 'Lifted' there.


It's a great exhibit - Ideabolo's killer collection.

Was just about to post the same. Pretty sure this is the collection of someone on here.
Very fine collection.

Haha, right! Missed that one

The exhibit's going until September, so there's plenty of time to visit.

It's an exhibition of the collection of Selim Varol. I don't know what's his name on this board, but he's ideabolo at Expressobeans. There is a long thread about this exhibition in the Expressobeans forum: forum.Expressobeans/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=86767 .

The show is called "Art & Toys". I expected to see much more toys (because Selim has a collection of some 15000 figures), but fortunately they have plenty of prints on the walls. It's very impressive. You should definitely go there if you have the possibility to do so. Here are some more pics taken by another visitor of the exhibition: www.flickr.com/photos/derpap/sets/72157630029228472/ .

Any official information regarding the show can be found at the website of the gallery. Look here: www.me-berlin.com/ausstellungen/ . Show is open until September 16, 2012. Regular admission is 6 EUR.

Enjoy the exhibition!

Selims collection is fucking retarded, I love it.

[confused2]

He must have a very understanding wife.

Just moved to Germany not long ago, was wondering if there where any galleries worth checking out.

Live about 20km from Karlsruhe, with Stuttgart and Frankfurt being about an 1.5 hours away.

Any urban art galleries around?

Any members in this neck of the woods?

[Someones Brain]

Try "Galerie Kasten" in Mannhein, they seem to be active in the contemporary and urban art scene. Did an urban art print show together with Mannheim Kunstverein this summer. Or "Pretty Portal" in Duesseldorf. They consider themseves as an urban art gallery as well. "Feinkunst Krueger" in Hamburg was pretty active in the gigposter scene and is still involved in Flatstock Europe (as far as I know).

There are some Germans on this board, even though I don't know whether there's anyone near you.

[seba]

not that near, but cologne has some urban art galleries:
there`s:
-able and baker
-artyfarty
-die kunstagentin
-ruttkowski68
-30works

- and museum ludwig has a huge collection of pop art with a david hockney
exhibition starting end of the month.

there is also selim varols "toykio" in düsseldorf.

you definitely have to visit berlin, if you haven´t been there already.
there`s always something going on there.

[ivantankl]

Thanks all for the help, will definately checkout a couple this weekend!
