Character Walk
Walking Tour of Galleries and Project Spaces as Part of Visit Pictopia
Tue, Mar 17–Sun, Mar 22, 2009
The walk leads visitors through 30 galleries and project rooms throughout Berlin, presenting outstanding international Character Design in all its diversity. The Argentine Juan Pablo Carambiere exhibits archaic, artfully carved wood robots. Francois Chalet (CH) animates geometric figures in a charming TV show projected onto the facade of the Collegium Hungaricum Berlin. Street Art-Artists the London Police (UK) and Flying Fortress (GB) transform a former gas station into spatial graffiti. The English designer duo Tado, masters of New Cuteness, stage an erotic shop for panda bears. In the gallery Bongout and the project space klub berlin, drawings rage against the sterility and perfection of digital images. And the gallery Neurotitan im Haus Schwarzenberg shows the analog realization of computer game worlds from the group "I Am 8 Bit" (USA) and the installation of the Russians Protey Temen, whose works combine pop and constructivism.
