It happens that we live across the street of an old crematorium with cemetery. That’s pretty decent and gives you a warm cozy feeling when falling asleep and even more when waking up again the next morning. Today we noticed an exhibition called ‘waves & partciles‘ starting there from Feb 6th as part of the Berlinale Forum Expanded.

The itself impressive building is now filled with all kinds of different morbid video installations. Nice hangout. Don’t know how long it will last. So make sure to drop by and take a nap in the huge hall watching some dove-action projected on the cathedral like ceiling called ‘Spirits Still’ by Lucien Castaing-Taylor and Vérena Paravel. I shot a video that can transport the vibe, i hope.

The 8th edition of Forum Expanded opens on February 6 with the “Waves vs. Particles” group exhibition at Silent Green Kulturquartier (former Crematorium Wedding). The opening starts at 6 pm; the exhibition will then be open daily from 11 am to 7 pm. Another exhibition with works by Marie-Hélène Cousineau in the Marshall McLuhan Salon of Canada’s embassy will be opened on February 7 between 5 and 7 pm and will then be open daily from 2 to 8 pm. In the Filmhaus installations by Basma Alsharif and Lucien Castaing-Taylor/Véréna Paravel can be seen from February 8, and an exhibition with works by Hélio Oiticica runs from February 6.
