INTRODUCING Guglielmo Castelli

  When, two years ago, we first encountered the work of Italian artist Guglielmo Castelli at Künstlerhaus Bethanien in Berlin, we found ourselves borne off into a poetical darkness, to a dimension that left us with an unhealthy longing for the kind of...

STUDIO VISITS Hajime Mizutani at Künstlerhaus Bethanien

Aug 3, 2019

A white space. The morning light has just passed. Atmospheric sounds of Brian Eno's New Space Music fill the room. The sound of boiling water. Hajime Mizutani, a current Kuenstlerhaus Bethanien resident, welcomes me to his studio and invites me to a Japanese oolong tea. His studio is very clean. There are no brushes, no paint stains or any traces of creative artist chaos.

INTRODUCING Maria Thurn und Taxis

Jul 5, 2019

MON CŒUR FAIT VROUM with David FeBland

Jun 25, 2019

In the right context, repetitions can be a beautiful thing – or to put it another way, less can indeed be more. So the tradition of the so-called "Three questions" – an easy way of finding out what it is that drives artists in their work – seems a natural fit for...

SPECIAL leikela featuring Edie Monetti, Rahel Gorten und Alexander Warhus

Jun 11, 2019

While reading Magda Grüner's text to introduce “Grimpo”, Edie Monetti's 13 octopus-objects, for leikela’s latest exclusive art edition, I not only instantly fell for the “brightly colored, shiny little bodies with black beady eyes“, as she describes them, but also found myself in a swirl of emotions.
