	THORSTEN SCHLOPSNIES
	In 2000 Thorsten Schlopsnies—aka Todosch—attempted to attack the ongoing Hannover Expo with a paramilitary convoy. He intended to raze it all to the ground, but the police stopped him. A few years later, he had dog teeth implanted into his jaw, and he established the myth of a Dog Tunnel (Hundetunnel) in Chicago—an event that has yet to be sufficiently documented. Even though the details have…

	BJÖRN MELHUS
	War provides us with many images, duly generated by the media. In the last 15 years, however, one institution more than any other has put its stamp on our collective consciences with respect to images of war, namely, the Pentagon. And thus the US Defense Department took precautions in the Second Gulf War that the war itself could be summed up as little more than all those people who in fact…

	CHRISTIAN RIEBE - SEVEN WORN MUNDANE OBJECTS SHINING IN THE FRONT YARD
	Labore in Secreto Born in 1963 in Lübeck, Christian Riebe currently lives and works in Hannover. Not only does he feel lost in this office-ridden German city, he is lost in time in his own way. Between 1984 and 1990 he studied painting at the art school in Hannover and, to this day, he teaches painting there. The school was later moved from an old building in the non-existent center of Hannover…

	BELARUS -GERMANY :FORBIDDEN LOVE
	Particularly populist and eternally partisan, this subject is intimately associated with contemporary Belarusian art. It cannot be disregarded that partisans always appear together with the enemy—the one against whom they can carry out their raids. German fascist invaders were the most recent visible and real enemy. Notwithstanding the seeming remoteness of events, new technologies, appearances…

	MAIX MAYER
	We paused on our night stroll through the city to gaze at a model of an airplane in an illuminated window of an airline office. It was propped inconspicuously on a thin metal rod among advertisements and flowerpots, in an arrangement that hadn’t been altered much since the 1970s. Airline companies have borrowed these elements from each other to demonstrate that their machines really do fly…

	VERNISSAGE POISON IDEA
	The vernissage—the art opening—is simply part and parcel of the art business. It’s where individuals meet, maintain contacts and where the actual reason for the event itself—the christening of a new exhibition and the display of new works of art—is more often than not pushed to the background. For most people, sometimes yawning disinterestedly or tensely, it is a routine, but the hope of…

	BLALLA’S BLASPHEMY: REDISCOVERING
	Earth is a sickening foam mattress………climb into my dreamboat of love, of madonna’s shit……….I can give water to everyone………congrats from us over here to you over there…….images on the borders of pain. Blalla W. Hallman, Blalla’s Cosmic Inspirations Were it not for the inherent injustice of the world, the very injustice that Blalla W. Hallman railed against in his vitriolic paintings, Hallman…

	CULT OF COOLNESS
	With an international retro craze for 80s New Wave cool in full swing, everyone enjoys a bit of German chic. Now, Germans try it, too. What’s the problem with this? Of all the caricatures of German intellectuals, I best like the one from the film Liquid Sky (USA, 1980). The film plays out in the New York new wave scene of the early 80s. Aliens have landed in the city and anyone who takes drugs…

	LEIPZIG PAINTERS-A CRITICAL COMMENTARY FROM THE CURRENT CONTEMPORARY ART STRONGHOLD OF LEIPZIG
	When the annual students’ exhibition of the Leipzig Academy of Arts (HGB) occured in February, it was clear to all participants that more was at stake this time than in years previous. The year 2004 had surprised (not only) the city of Leipzig with the unprecedented hype surrounding the artistic output from the German city—especially with respect to painting within the HGB milieu. In fact, so…

	THE LEIPZIG LENS GOES AMERIKA
	The Leipzig Academy of Visual Arts has blossomed into one of the most exciting locations for photographers in Germany—and is exhibiting nationwide self-consciousness in the process.Whereas once the city coughed in the thick smog of East German industry, those clouds have slowly lifted over Leipzig. Likewise, the public attention on painting from the Leipzig Art Academy has somewhat obscured a…
