Culture in Berlin: Gemäldegalerie

When you start studying Art History you simply can’t avoid to go to the museum. The Gemäldegalerie is an art museum and holds one of the world’s leading collections of European art from the 13th to the 18th centuries. You can find masterpieces from artists such as Albrecht Dürer, Lucas Cranach, Hans Holbein, Jan van Eyck, Raphael, Caravaggio, Rubens, Rembrandt and Vermeer. Just to name a few.

Goodbye 2012

The year has been so amazing and equally absolutely shocking. We finished school and started a new life.  From highs to lows everything was packed into the past months. The pictures here just slightly capture the whole impressions and experiences we have made. Life has tested and challenged us in every possible way… We would like to Thank You for all the support over the years and wish  you a great start into 2013. Make the best out of it!

Culture in Berlin: Berliner Liste

Last week we were invited to the Opening Party of the art fair Berliner Liste (thanks to PEO).  We got a glimpse of the work presented there (did you see them on Twitter?!) and enjoyed  some techno sounds at the Tresor Club which is located in the same building. We sadly couldn’t snap some more pictures of the art, since it wasn’t allowed to take pictures.

Sweet Treat in Berlin: Wonderpots Part II

When you hear the word “Wonderpots” you kind off think about something magical, something extraordinary. In this case you wont be disappointed – in fact, you will be mesmerized. Behind Wonderpots, a guilt-free goodness, you will find one of the loveliest Frozen Yogurt stores I have ever been to. I had the pleasure to talk to Björn Welter, CEO and founder of the store. Without doubt a really inspiring man, showing and telling me what is possible if you just “through yourself into it”. He studied architecture at the Bauhaus University in Weimar, a renowned institution when it comes to architecture. Afterwards he worked for Pret a Manger in London and travelled all over the year between New York, Hong Kong and London because of his work as interior designer for the branch. And here, in the streets of NYC, the idea for Wonderpots was born, a crazy one as he said, a risk of course. He took the chance and made himself, together with a partner, self-employed. They opened their first store in Berlin …

Culture in Berlin: Berlin University of the Arts

♫ Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros – 40 Day Dream ♫  The Berlin University of the Arts (short in German: UdK) is probably one of the renowned public art schools in Germany. If you manage to get hold of a place at this institution you are more than lucky and already (if you graduate successfully) have a high-light on your curriculum vitae. So, it was no surprise that a lot of people were going to take a look at it on the annual open house days of the university. Jana is on holiday at the moment, she will bring some lovely summer pictures along when she comes back (hopefully!).
