See my first attempt at making a cartoon…

As you can see everybody was very happy Saturday night at heliumcowboy artspace.
The images of my new artwork, some exhibition views, the making of and setting up and some impressions of the opening party are online now!

Before turning my back on Hamburg, I will display my current works in my third solo show at heliumcowboy artspace.
This time I’ve worked exclusively with textiles. I’ve knitted and sewed an installation, pictures and sculptures.
The opening will be on Saturday, May 24, at 8 pm. JLu plays laid-back Indie Hop, Electronic and campfire music.

You are warmly invited! Nina

The helping hounds of hell show up in Hamburg!

The Berlin show two weeks ago was a big success and that will hopefully be continued at the heliumcowboy artspace tomorrow night: come to the opening party  at 8 p.m. and see unique artworks on 100 skateboards!

Buy! All benefit goes to the SAGE hospital for children in Senegal.

As an exception here is a little advertising concerning someone else: my boyfriend, one of my best friends and two other nice guys who do a good job playing their instruments, release a record today: Sing What You Know is the name of their second album, Home Of The Lame is the name of the band.
I am not very good at describing music with words, but Walter Schreifels says, that Schopenhauer says “Only he who takes what he writes directly out of his own head is worth reading”, and Sing What You Know spells out and illustrates the point. Ja genau. Aside from that this is a solid piece of pop-music that dares to rock. I really like it and if you want to check it out click here (myspace) or here (regular website).

“The helping hounds of hell” is a charity project initiated in summer 2007 by twilite skateboards in association with GDBG for the Sage hospital in Senegal / West Africa.
100 boards will be painted (Well - maybe not all of them, as you can see below I knitted again!) by more than 30 international artists.
These boards can be seen & of course bought from the 25.01.2008 - 03.02.2008 at the Neurotitan gallery in Berlin and from 08.02.2008 - 12.02.2008 at the heliumcowboy artspace in Hamburg.
All people participating in this project work without commercial aims. All benefit will be donated to the SAGE HOSPITAL e.V. .

Enjoy your holidays, recreate and then: a mind-blowing 2008! Jehaw.
