HoF Villa RÜ in March
There is not much space at Villa RÜ, but nevertheless those walls are very busy. It’s always worth a flying visit and guarantees something new every time again. Whenever I’m in a bad mood – and thats often in these days (#FUCKCORONA) – you don’t have to look far to meet someone who cheers you […]

Spring is upon us …

After resting and refining their strengths for another year, artists crawled out of their holes and nests, where they have spent the winter in hibernation.

#CHALKUP – Stop CATCALLING
Everything quite harmless? Today is International Women’s Day, but street harassment is an everyday experience of women, young and old. Everyone can do something about it. Do not ignore Don’t be quiet!

#HOPE – Better times are coming
The first time I noticed that new gap at Huyssenallee / Baedekerstraße, where RWE administration high-rises had been knocked down, was in July 2017. What a wonderful eyecatcher wall – that was my first thought. Nothing happened ever since. Now Kölbl Kruse, owners and building project developers have discovered the potential of that spot and […]
