This week Berlin plays host to some rather eccentric and exciting events. At the experimental arts project space
MicaMoca in Wedding, the Polish are taking over and claiming the city as theirs in a weekend of exhibitions and performances entitled,
POLAND IS NOT YET LOST. They tell us to expect blood, sausage, and art - so worth a look just to see what exactly this intriguing description means! Whilst at Alexandra Rockelman's
Galerie OPEN (which was included in the Guardian's Top 10
Berlin Galleries recently), emerging curator Leen Horsford has taken over for the summer and presents an exciting and original performance-dining experience, DON'T PLAY WITH YOUR FOOD. This promises to be a dining experience like no other - expect a tasty 3-course meal whilst somehow participating in an art performance. With a somewhat vague description, I've got no idea what to expect, but my curiousity matches my appetite for good food and so this is one event I won't be missing! There's a limited number of guests, so email quick to reserve your place
