<big><b>Further information</b><br>

As Berlin's growth as a global creative hub continues,
SUPERMARKT's home in Wedding has taken on particular
significance within the city’s cultural atmosphere. Raw
warehouses and their surrounding 'street' stories reveal
traces of history and layers of memories of a Berlin
gone-by. Wedding is a neighbourhood on the verge of
socio-economic transition. As young creatives begin to
infiltrate this part of Berlin, fears of rising rents and
living costs give way to frictions between communities
past and present.
<i>Illuminations of Wedding</i> is a
project exploring forms of urban expressionism from the
perspective of Wedding and its identity, with SUPERMARKT's
facade and interior used as a digital canvas. Artists
explore Wedding's changing role in relation to their own
artistic developments. How does the city and this
particular neighbourhood reflect our desires and notions
of identity? How can a place like SUPERMARKT remain in
balance with its surrounding communities?<br>
<br>
On Thursday afternoon you're invited to our 'Trash'
Workshop on upcycling and creative uses of waste for
Wedding's community, led by Julia Vernersson & Ruuta
Vimba from Kulturlabor Trial&Error e.V.. On Friday
evening, the<i> Illuminations of Wedding </i>exhibition
will be launched, featuring a video installation and a
series of photographic works by Vancouver-based
artist Malcolm Levy, all produced in Wedding's
Brunnenviertel, and sculptural works by architectural
sculptor Hendrik Czakainski. A site-specific, LED-Throwie
installation on the facade of SUPERMARKT by Semiramis
Ceylan & Jaime Schwartz [Graffiti Research Lab
Germany] and projection mapping installation by
Wedding-based artist AUTO64 [STATTBAD Berlin] will
celebrate the community, with visual material mapped onto
the physical structures in and around SUPERMARKT. The
evening will conclude with an audio-visual performance
from Berlin-based composer and musician, Peter Kirn
[Creative Digital Music & Create Digital Motion], an
abstract musical topography produced from words and sounds
recorded in the neighbourhood. Live visual performance
by Jem the Misfit creates a collage representing these
narratives in optical form.<br>
<br>
On Saturday afternoon, a panel discussion with take place
with artist/curator Malcolm Levy, curator/cultural manager
Susa Pop [Public Art Lab Berlin] and representatives
from Graffiti Research Lab Germany, moderated by Kristin
Trethewey and Michelle O'Brien. In fitting
with transmediale's 2013 theme BWPWAP, the discussion will
focus on the themes of urban expressionism, shifts within
network culture and society, and the role of public art
and technologically-mediated interventions for evolving
communities.</big><br>
