A Gallery With Humor






Within the last week I have visited Charlotte Fogh Gallery twice and each time I got more drawn to the exhibition and the gallery itself. This months exhibition is by Andreas Schulenburg with the title For Satan for Helvel (for satan for 'hell' - where hell is written wrong... or at least different). Andreas Schulenburg is educated at The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in 2005 and is born and raised in Germany. He has a unique sense of humor and his dyslexic challenges is what makes the text in the pictures unique. Besides the exhibition it is possible to buy reproductions, unique pictures and books in the store. In a little backyard behind the exhibition room there is an interesting place with art by different artists. I can't say anything else than: VISIT!

Mejlgade Surprise


Yesterday we where lucky. We drove through the city from north to south and without being prepared we ended up in Mejlgade. Every year a street party take place on a Saturday where diversity is celebrated - Mejlgade For Mangfoldighed. The weather was beautiful and upcoming artists made the festival atmosphere one big party. I especially fell for Lotte Rose - electronic with a twist. A couple of hours there and we had been on a mini festival in Aarhus. Perfect.

Discoveries: Råbar / Street Art Mini / Dream Car





Sun and a day off made us take a long walk by the water from Risskov to the middle of Aarhus. On our way we went out on the harbor. Lunch and coffee was enjoyed at Råbar - in the city center - witch turned out to be more than delicious. I enjoyed a thai wrap - yummy - finished with coffee and luxurious chocolate. On the way home I noticed a car that would fit perfectly into my taste - and the Jopo bike I enjoy to take a ride on every day. But with no drivers license a photograph of the wonder is enough.

Post 300: Celebration






Well I'm not really able to hide it - so here it is. Post number 300... OMG how time flies, and I realized that the blog has been alive for five years. I have been thinking a lot about how I could celebrate it. The most honest celebration for me would be to take my new bike - Jopo (witch I love) - and ride down to the ocean. Yesterday I noticed that the changing room again was placed on the wooden pier, and then I knew exactly what I wanted to do this afternoon - and what Birdie Nam Nam should have. On my way home I bought a bottle of red wine and some cashew nuts, witch where enjoyed on the balcony. What more could I ask for. Nothing.

Framework / Spring Snow


It's freezing cold outside and I just feel like staying in the apartment, work on my little frame project, notice what happens outside, drink coffee and listen to music. I have to force myself to go out. But when I'm out there, with my headphones and a warm sweaters under my jacket, it actually makes me feel light and fresh.

A New Path







Last week was filled with consideration, talks with both strangers and connoisseurs and enjoyment of small things (as always...). I went on a short trip to Copenhagen - where I had lunch with a good friend at Café Charlottenborg - a lunch place I will not forget. Both taste, size and price of the menu made sense. After that we went down to Black Box Gallery where we saw the Evalajka Pervin exhibition. Interesting elements - especially the photos mixed with drawings caught my attention. After deep concentration we enjoyed a coffee break with cake and talks in the backroom. Cozy. The day before I drank my cappuchinno at 'Verdens mindste kaffebar' (the worlds smallest coffee shop) Tullinsgade 1 on Frederiksberg. The mini café opens up to talks between other guests and a talkative barista. Back in Aarhus the weekend was spend with walks and a new project for our little apartment - more to come. On our walk we found a tiny road which we haven't noticed before. The Love Path.

Berlin: Katies Blue Cat







One more coffee café to mention is Katies Blue Cat in Kreuzberg/Neukölln - Kreuzkölln. Tip was given by connoisseurs - and we where not disappointed. The café had a cozy atmosphere, full house and people coming to pick up bread or cakes. We shared a delicate breakfast containing youghurt with müsli, fruit and homemade bread with a cheddar cheese we could agree on ;-). The coffee was tasty and we could hear and see that bread and cakes was made in the kitchen. Luxury. I decided to buy a cookie to share for our trip home later that day - success.
