Artists to Action – Gängeviertel in Hamburg

Not far from my neighborhood there is a little area that is called Gängeviertel. About 12 houses that are really old – some of the few left over in Hamburg of this construction. This area was the living area for the very poor workers and a couple years ago an investor bought those houses with the plan to demolish about 80% and build up something modern. But then they hadn’t had money and now for years those houses are just stand there empty, they rot and it looks as if some day those historic houses will be just demolished at all.

Last weekend about 200 artists – a lot of them art students – squated the houses and put installations, paintings, sculptures, spray art – art in every imaginable way into the rooms of those houses. And finally the city started talking to them and right now it looks as if they can stay for a time and the rooms will be opened to the public in case they are safe.

Not my video

So I have been there several times to see if some more reopened – and I will be back for sure- but here are some things I saw so far.

this one below totally cracked me up

The video is not mine! I found it on youtube- and love it!

Project 365 – Week 34

Such a crazy and exciting week – I liked it :) So here we go with pictures again- sorry about the photo overload at the time, but I was so busy I hadn’t had time to create – or what I created I can’t show at the moment! But I promise I get better ;)

Was für eine verrückte und aufregende Woche – hat mir sehr gefallen :) Hier also mal wieder Photos – tut mir leid, dass es gerade so viele gibt, aber ich war so beschäftigt, dass ich kaum Zeit zum scrappen hatte – oder wenn doch, dann für Projekte, die ich noch nicht zeigen kann! Aber ich gelobe Besserung ;)

*229/365*

Lunch with Liz – such wonderful time :)

*230/365*

Such a nice evening. Had an office party on our office balcony- with bbq, music from YouTube on our Computers and cake and fun :)

*231/365*

Day went by in a blur – packing, organising, cleaning, “migraine-ing”. Niles “why are you doing this to me???”

*232/365*

Arrived in Odense, Denmark. The cute street where Hans Christian Andersen was born just across MultiScrap where I taught.

*233/365*

Love this pic of Iben- that was too funny!

*234/365*

Somebody got a new hammock ;) Happy Anniversary!

*235/365*

Did a bicycle tour – went on the ferry to go to the other side of the river and rode around there. Fun, beautiful and relaxed day.

Wishing you a gorgeous start into the week!!!!

Wünsche Euch einen tollen Start in die Woche!!!

A hammock is a pretty fun relaxing tool- LOL

*227/365*

well- if you go to Ikea you need to eat this- LOL. Love the little flag they put in your food. I can’t believe I have actually never been to Sweden!

*228/365*

My two wonderful grand aunts and me in the Lüneburger Heide. It was such a fun afternoon. My favorite saying by Aunt Margot who turns 90 in December: “This time we have a lot of REALLY old people in our travel group!” Me “Ahhh – how old is really old?” She “Well, one of the woman is 91!!!!!” It was a running gag the whole afternoon ;)

OK- wishing you a wonderful day!!!

You just gave me an idea on what I might eat tonight (I have some of those Ikea meatballs in the freezer). Sweden is great, go there if you get the chance! We’ve been there twice this year and might go back some other year, so much places to see!

Unglaublich…der August ist schon da! Und während ich eigentlich ein wenig traurig bin, dass das Jahr so schnell an mir vorbeifliegt….freue ich mich schon total auf die nächsten 4 Monate. Es wird super aufregend! Aber zunächst mal …meine nicht so aufregende letzte Woche ;)

I know you saw this pic already :) Had a lot of fun at the Yeah Yeah Yeahs Concert in the Docks in Hamburg

*189/365*

love that flower at Planten un Bloomen

*190/365*

stumbling stones in Hamburg – always make me sad and think about who lived in those houses and what happened to them! Makes me also realize how unlikely it is when people say they didn’t know.

*191/365*

St. Pauli Game – 2 : 0 – good game, lot’s of rain, cold, but still fun

*192/365*

Crop & Grill at Scrapbook-King– awesome day- and finally seeing Andrea again – it’s been a while

Project 365 – Week 26

I’m a bit late with my pictures of last week- but finally- LOL

Ich bin wieder ein wenig spät mit den Photos der letzten Wochenende- aber nun denn – LOL

*173/365*

Kimmy gave me those awesome pencils- I can’t wait to try them :)

*174/365*

LOL – I guess I told my husband pretty stern that I’m not happy about the fact that he ate the whole melon alone that I had bought for a special dessert. Guess he made up with it this way- LOL

*175/365*

That was the day I started working on my Canvas Album.

*176/365*

and after working on the project my fingers do look like this :)

*177/365*

Love cornflowers- I miss them in the city – so I was happy to find a bunch on the farmer’s market

*178/365*

Such a cool painting on a wall in the neighborhood.

*179/365*

So much ribbon – I guess I should use it more often :)

– Wishing you a great day :)

Wünsche Euch einen wunderbaren Tag :)

Hmmm…lecker, Du hast mich grad mit Deinem Bild an meine Melone im Kühlschrank erinnert :-)
Übrigens ein cooles Foto, dass Du in der Nachbarschaft aufgenommen hast.

LG,

Tanja

*sigh* I know I say it over and over again – your photo’s always put me in a good mood. I had to giggle hard though at the reference to Nat’s melon..
