About Us Tips Trips Friends ... Talk Travel C onnecting: Solo Travel Network Information Lucky Me! I Was There During World Cup 2006 I planned to spend my time in Germany this summer checking out family history , unlike thousands of visitors who had World Cup 2006 foremost in mind. Not myself a huge fan of "football" (soccer in North America), I didn't realize my good luck until I landed in the midst of a country-wide party. And I got in on all the fun, beginning with two days on my own in Berlin while waiting for friends. Frommer's Germany 2006 Unter den Linden , Berlin's signature boulevard. World Cup fever was evident everywhere. Flags and souvenir shops paved my approach to Brandenburg Gate . A giant soccer ball looming to its front prevented me from getting a "pure" photographic shot of this famous symbol of freedom and Germany's reunification. World Cup guests waved their flags among German youth who wore their own as skirts and sported national colors in their yellow, red, and black Mohawks. Even the Berliner Bear dressed for the occasion. The city's age old mascot was decked out in sundry forms of dress to herald this big international summer event. Motherlode of Culture Walking towards the Island of Museums (Museuminsel) in the middle of the Spree River, incredible sculptures and museums punctuated Unter den Linden, all of which had been off limits before the infamous Berlin Wall came down in 1989.

65. Bienal - Official Artists - Saint Lucia - Winston Branch This initiating trip was extended to Rome, the United States and berlin and regular He reached maturity at the moment he went back to Saint lucia. http://www1.uol.com.br/bienal/23bienal/paises/iplc.htm

Mother Weep No More (Homage to Eugenie) 1996. Acrylic on canvas, 130X190 cm In the Golden Afternoon 1996. Acrylic on canvas, 130X190 cm Winston Branch by Andrë Chapot Winston Branch, the Inner Landscape Attracted from the beginning to lights and colors, Winston Branch has given them even more emphasis in his last works. This is not surprising when we are informed that he comes from the Caribbean and that some years ago he went back to live in his native country, Saint Lucia. It would be a simplification to characterize his work only with geographical traces, but this return to his origins is surely not haphazard; not he, who lived for such a long time so far from his native land; it was maturity that enabled him to go back and discover his real nature. Having eventually reached his life balance, he moved back to the place where his art blossoms. The journey was not an easy one. A talented adolescent, he had to leave his little island because there painting was either hobby or decorative craft. He did not have any other choice than choosing exile, going towards places that had a rich artistic legacy but are frequently overcast and where light is gray. Nevertheless, those formative years were fundamental. From 1966 to 1970 he attended Slade School of Fine Arts, in London. He had the willpower to overcome barriers and increasingly extend his artistic experiences, following the example of other painters such as Wifredo Lam and Roberto Matta, whose works he discovered at that time. Like himself, they are artists that come from countries where light prevails and that had to struggle to be able to master their art. He realized that this difficult period of research was necessary to attain the universal pictorial language that allowed him to express his personality as a Caribbean painter.

MARTIN RANDALL TRAVEL Art Architecture Gastronomy ... Music Germany BERLIN AT CHRISTMAS WITH FOUR OPERAS AND A DAY IN POTSDAM Lecturer: Tom Abbott Numerous excellent collections of fine and decorative arts and first-rate architecture. B ERLIN POSSESSES One of the grandest capitals in Europe for the first forty years of last century, it then suffered appallingly from aerial bombardment and Russian artillery. Then for forty years it was cruelly divided into two parts and became the focus of Cold War antagonism, a bizarre confrontation between an enclave of western libertarianism and hard-line Communism. Since the Wall was breached in 1989 the city has been transformed beyond recognition. From being a largely charmless urban expanse still bearing the scars of war, it has become a vibrant, liveable city, the very model of a modern major metropolis. The two halves have been knitted together and cleaning and repair have revealed the patrimony of historic architecture to be among the finest in Central Europe.

IDEFICS commenced in September 2006 and is scheduled for a five year period. The study will deliver reliable data to make an European-wide assessment of the problem of "obesity in children" possible. It also includes an intervention on 17.000 Children between the age of two and ten. I am chairing the Working Area "Consumer Science", together with Professor Suzanne Beckmann, CBS/IKL. Another research project I am involved is a four-year (2003-2007) transdisciplinary research project financed by the German Ministry of Research titled “The Mediatization of Sustainable Development” (www.balance-f.de; www.balance-p.de). The idea is to use mass media (television, Internet, podcast) to sensitize low-interest consumers for issues of sustainable consumption. The basic approach is an “edutainment” strategy that communicates sustainability topics in an entertaining way by creating positive emotions towards the subject. We closely cooperate with a TV producer („Welt der Wunder“) and „Gesellschaft für Konsumforschung“ (GfK) in Germany. I am responsible for the research module „consumer research”.

Guests Dietmar Post and Luc­a Palacios Birgit M¶ller Daniel Kothenschulte Dietmar Post and Luc­a Palacios Hannah Herzsprung Search Together with the Spanish director Luc­a Palacios he directed his first feature-length documentary (2006), on which they’ve been working for about eight years. „Franco’s Settlers“, their next corporate project, will concern the fascistic Spanish Musterd¶rfer of the 1940s. Luc­a Palacios was born in 1972 in Madrid. She studied Cinema Studies at the Complutense University of Madrid. In 1996 she obtained a scholarship at New York University through the Spanish government. She lived in New York until 2002 and worked during this time as production manager for several films and as TV news reporter for Canal+ (Spain), TVE (Spanish Public TV) and SAT1 (German TV). She currently lives in Berlin. "Monks – The Transatlantic Feedback" is their second film to be released as a team of co-directors and co-producers. It took them eight years in the making and it happens to be a witty and absorbing story about the transformation of five American GIs into the rock band the Monks. The group took its name seriously - they took the stage in black monk outfits and even went so far as to shave the crowns of their heads in a monk-style tonsure. Dietmar and Luc­a portray a band that aimed for a countermovement to the Beatles in 1966, a cult-band that was among the punk movement's most salient influences. Daily Sessions

home sitemap search deutsch ... Contact © Hartwig Klappert Karla Suárez Cuba/France Guest of the ilb 2007 Karla Suárez was born in Cuba in 1969. She spent her childhood and youth in Havana, where she studied computer science. Her literary career began with stories which were published in various anthologies and magazines. Her story »Aniversario« (t: Anniversary) was adapted for the stage in 1996. Two stories from her first collection »Espuma« (1999; t: Foam) were adapted for Cuban television. Two years after their publication her second story collection followed, »Carroza para actores« (2001; t: The carriage for actors). Her début novel »Silencios« (1999; t: Silences) was translated into French, Portuguese, Italian, Slovenian, and was published in German in 2001. It covers twenty years of Cuban history, beginning with the period of relative affluence in the nineteen eighties and moving up to the »Special Period« following the collapse of Communism. It is a classic coming-of-age novel, in which the narrator describes her life from childhood through youth to adulthood. The silence of the title is the child’s response to the hysteria of a large Cuban family, in which every family member has a secret and so lives a double life. The child observes and reveals the individual stories. At the end, the curious little girl has become a disillusioned young woman, the family breaks apart, and the main character is isolated in loneliness. Suárez's new novel, »La viajera« (2005; t: The traveller), also contains many autobiographical elements. Starting in the late nineties, it tells the story of Circe, a strong and fascinating woman, who, with her friend Lucía, flees the restrictive Cuban society to find the right place to live. Lucía soon marries an Italian and moves to Rome, while Circe continues to travel from city to city. Six years later, Circe follows Lucía to Rome. Along with her son, born in the meantime, she moves in with Lucía and her husband. Their old friendship moves into a new phase. In this lively, ironic novel that has been translated into three languages, there is a special emphasis on music, and this provides the book with a kind of soundtrack, which is why the Spanish original edition was accompanied by a CD containing the most important pieces. »It’s important for me to develop characters with their own musical theme, to give them their own identity and traits«, says the author.
