Berlin art galerie pilgrimage

The setup
Back in Berlin for a few days, equipped with a bike, bottle of water, a camera, I'm ready to my what's used to be my usual galerie tour. There is some much stuffs to see here, made me realised how small was the scene in Montreal in comparison.

The coffee
I stay at a friend's place near Rosenthaler Platz, so no other choices than having a first stop early in the morning at St. Oberholz, they have coffee, internet and usually good music.

The tour
Direction the South of Berlin and the Galerie Thomas Schulte. Finally visiting this address I have been passing so many times in the last 10 years. Beautiful building and space inside with a kind of corner glass house, very cool. Always or almost always an in situ art piece in this corner. Once inside there is more to discover. A beautiful very late discovery for me.



Deeper South into Kreuzberg
Direction König Galerie for the all in concrete church turned into a gallery. As usual the two persons at the entrance don't pay attention to you, quickly you go up the main big room above, this time a giant picture framed installation, very cool.

The classic
Now that I'm there, I just need to cycle a few meters away and the Berlinische Galerie is waiting for me. What can I say? It's always a good address to visit and if the temporaries installations do not suit you there is always the permanent collection. This really rarely happen to me as there is often something that pleases me, so one more time I found something, a new artist I didn't the work, but what do I know...

The artist Loredana Nemes is presenting her work (and here on Artsy). Her world was very inspiring to me, especially the series GierAngstLiebe in black and white such that you don't know if you are looking at negative images or not, beautiful.

Below what her imagery has inspired me to produce.
