London rehersal

On my way back from Berlin I had two days of wandering around London like a tourist, later on Me and Lyall sat and had a glass of wine while Annie and her band 'Coy carp burger' practiced thier super dreamy show. Muy bien

box of jesus

I took this picture in Alaxander plats Berlin on a Sunny Sunday. I like the preachers tool kit.

Exhibitionists

The top picture is of the artists and organisors of Transparent at KKB Berlin.
And then two art enthusiasts Walter and Jordie (hope I spelt that right)

muy fragil

this is how my recycled cardboard box turned out.

turistica

As all the other tourists headed out for sightseeing, I went to the heart of any culture, their Do It Your self shop!

carton viaja

I traveled to Berlin to show some work in a project space there in the Kunst klub Berlin Gallery
and along came a cardboard box as my fellow traveller.

vegie barbeque

A walk ,some snacks and chats

An afternoon trip to Salinas and then a cliff walk further west.

displays

Its the Easter week and the local Catholic ornament shop has an elaborate display of Jesus, this being only one of about ten variations.
The second picture is of a menu board I saw outside a resturant, it seemed to serve every dish imaginable and the carved letters are realy impressive... someone had a fun winter project!

Laboral entertainment

The thing to do when its realy raining.... now that the new Laboral centre has opened we went to the free bee weekend to give the space a test run. So the exhabition on now is all about digital/ machine art and there is some good interactive quriosities. There is a gaming floor which has many computerised digital games for all ages to get completely confused as to how they work or do they work! Some of the interactive pieces were already bust after day two, and alot of the exhibits were out of bounds unless the artist was there to give permission, which is a bit of a joke when the artist lives in America say or the U.K. So again quite alot of baffled audiance walking around this ginormouse space looking a bit lost. I had a good time and was glad to be in a play pen out of the rain.

Laboral centre

So this week has just been so rainy I dont think ive left the house apart to go to the gym. As were moving in a month, ive been hoping it will dry up so I can go and collect some good strong boxes from the streets. As the weekend came around just as quick as the last one left we had an agenda to visit the exhabition space in the newly built Laboral centre and attend a seminar in the old renevated Franco building on the outskirts of Gijon. The complex was originally built as some kind of training centre to teach the youthnof Asturias practical skills to later benafit the northern economy. As you can see we were enjoying the funny murul in the cafe area, original chairs and tables from Franco time but covered over with new upholstry, it was like being stuck in some kind of Soviet boutique hotel.
