Teufelssee"

(Leslie/Lohman Gallery -Basement Annex -, 127-B Prince Street, New York, NY, 10013)(noon -6pm)
The work I is a story of tolerance and liberal
thinking, of „laisser faire“ and „joie
de vivre." I work in large charcoal
drawings on nettle cloth, which will
cover the entire walls of the Prince
Street Project Space.
The drawings are based on the theme of
"Teufelsee," a small lake in the
middle of the forest Grunewald in
Berlin. The area draws a wide range of
people looking to bathe in the sun or
swim in the water. Although
„Teufelssee“ means „Devil's Lake," it
has also become a "Garden of Eden."
Young families bring their kids.
Skinny full bearded hipsters lay side
by side with a couple of chubby
skinheads. Lesbians kiss in front of a
group of young men trying to cure
their hangovers. An allover tattooed
mother breastfeeds her newborn child,
while a middle-aged man snore in the
sun and a couple of young girls
discuss their recent love affairs.
Everybody is nude, relaxed and
peacefully enjoying life. No
restrictions exist. No aggressions
occur. Teufelsee is a place where the
soul of Berlin is breathing, and one
can feel how wide and open the heart
of Berlin has become.
