The Black Market Room

As visitor I found myself in a crowded opening at Künstlerhaus Bethanien in Berlin
of the exhibition In Other Words by NGBK. At "The Black Market Room" is CHADAL.
A multiple project by Cherimus about music and art from Sardinia to Senegal with a lot
of involved musicians and artists. For more details go: Cherimus !
Gladly holding an object by Michele Gabriele in my hands while I was watching a guy
copying himself a free Chadal Mixtape with a cassette recorder by Matteo Rubbi. Also
CHADAL can be bought on vinyl and cd, plus Shirts and the magazin DAKAR.
On the way home I was travelling with my own Chadal Cassette in my pocket.

SPACE...

There was a lot of fire going on during the days of the workshop SPACE... (Spazio Per Arte, Creatività E...) in Carbiona,
Sardinia. Diego Perrone, Bathie Tounkara and me gave a workshop at Territorium Museum of Contemporary Pubblic &
Social Art, Grande Miniera di Serbariu, Carbonia, around 25 to 28 January, invited by Cherimus.
It was about an improvised video shooting that contained things that Giorgia, Giuliano, Marco, Marta and Viola
were drawing, making, talking and dreaming about...

The final video is soon to come!

Kanga

Designing a pattern of a Kanga out of pictures by Laboratorio Zanzara which are drawn in a
Cherimus workshop at Artissima Lido in Turin.

The kanga (or khanga) which comes from the old Bantu (Kiswahili) verb ku-kanga to wrap
or close, is a colourful garment similar to kitenge, worn throughout Eastern Africa
predominantly in Tanzania and Kenya. It is a piece of printed cotton fabric, about 1.5m by
1m, often with a border along all four sides (called pindo in Swahili), and a saw (jina) is
within the central part (mji) which differs in design from the borders.
Kangas are usually very colorful.

Zanza Kanga

The Zanza Kanga will be very soon available in cotton!

Kanga B!anca

The Kanga B!anca is a handmade unique with remained fabric.

These Kangas are developed by me for the Kanga Kokomanga Party by Marco Colombaioni
by invitation of Cherimus on 04.11.11 at Artissima Lido in Turin.
I worked in Bubble Belly space of Motel Lucie and also made a poster.

I'm very excited to take part of the KANGA KOKOMANGA PARTY 4th of November
22pm at Artissima Social Club, via Sant'Agostino 28E in TURIN. Moreover there will
be a lot of performances and exhibitions around Kanga from 3rd to 5th of November.

Sing a Song

Il Gioco dell'Oca

is a work by Marco Colombaioni, that was realized in 2009 in the village Valledoria
in Sardinia. A painting as a game on a ground that's best viewed from the sky.
Everybody who steps on it is invited to play. Known as Game of the Goose the
players simply follow the fields of the spiral. Marco selected more than just the
goose but the world's variety of colorful animals of every kind.

In occasion of the exhibition IL BELPAESE DELL'ARTE: Etiche ed Estetiche della
Nazione at GAMeC-Galleria d'Arte Moderna e Contemporanea in Bergamo from
28.09.11 to 19.02.12, Marco Colombaioni's work is reproduced in the courtyard of
the museum by friends:
Giuseppina Rubbi, Simon Njami, Yassine Balbzioui, Leonardo Chiappini, Michele
Gabriele, Giovanni Giaretta, Isa Griese, Cristhian Raimondi, Beatrice Bailet, Matteo
Rubbi, Carlo Spiga, Edna Gee, Gemma Noris, Derek Maria Francesco Di Fabio,
Alek O., Santo Tolone, Cleo Fariselli, Elena Nerina Reverberi, Alberto Colzani,
Emiliana Sabiu, Andrea Rossi and the super support of the Cherimus association.

These are only a few pictures ...more you find here !

The adventure of the game as painting as game is still open as other participating
artists are invited in continue to draw animals and also the rules are growing up.
It's made to be permanent.
Hopefully it'll resist a long time on the grey concrete, long last forever...!

Derzeit

A friend Nina Trippel is blogging for fashion, design, lifestyle and travel in
the World Wide Web and she writes freelance for magazines. For Fashion Week
in Berlin she comes up with fresh stuff for Derzeit, a daily that displays to put
fashion in the context of Berlin's fluid cultural scene. Above you see one of its teaser,
an extra fashion in motion clip for the recent Fashion Week that just has ended.
Needless to say it will continue and on its website http://www.derze.it/ you
can find all editions that appeared so far.
In Volume 5, Issue 4, 2011, I read about Petrovsky & Ramone, a photographer
duo that is interviewed by Nina Trippel and Manuel Schibli. While looking
into pure photos with sincere aesthetics I discover them saying, We want to do
the first fashion shoot on the moon. Wow, who doesn't want to see that!?

7 minutes at Klub Dialog

Klub Dialog, Photo: Stefan Ziebach

On my phone I saw that he called me. I tried to call him back but he didn't pick up. Then he called
again but I was unreachable. Somehow we managed to have a quick talk about if we want to take
part of Open Space at Klub Dialog and make a 7 minutes lecture ...yes! It was only a few days left but
as fast as we prepaired our 7 minutes as fast we talked on stage. On April 14, Pascal Howe and me
brought a sofa with us and pictures about how we composed star constellations in Italy were screened
behind us. (Go and see the current exhibition Bounty nello spazio by Matteo Rubbi in GAMeC, Bergamo)
Inbetween we introduced Plantage 9 and its open day that was on April 10, in Bremen. We modified
our studio into a big cluster of everything we have inside and my new collection crossed over.

Pegasus for Matteo Rubbi. We cutted little triangles of textiles according to the number and size of stars and sewed them together
to a big triangle. Until 15th May you can see it with other constellations in the exhibition Bounty nello spazio at museum GAMeC in
Bergamo, Italy http://www.gamec.it/PagStd.aspx?Codice=MOS940 ▲◀▼ One of the stars of Pegasus I knitted by hand of pure
wool in a bright color gradient. The same triangle I made in variations for some cotton bags which you can have in the street at
Glasbox or order in my shop!
