Catwalk In Public Space During Art Fair in Basel

June 4, 2009

Reh4, organisation for the support of subculture in Basel, will hold the second volume of “Catwalk in Public Space”. Young fashion designers will have the opportunity to show their collections to the public – open air and in the street.

Feldbergstrasse in Basel is the center of designers’ and artists’ potential in Basel. You find here a number of shops dedicated to giving a platform to young, fresh and uprising designers. There are double as many exhibitors than in 2008. You’ll see assortments and presentations from Airasmus, By Coming Soon, Claudia Güdel, Deleni, K-Pony (Peter Müller), Le Magaz-1, marinsel, Spunk und Riviera.

The catwalk covers a hundred meters of sidewalk. When taking place in 2008, the public interest was remarkable. Click here to see a video of the first Catwalk in Public Space.

Catwalk in Public Space II will take place on 11th June 2009, starting from 7pm until 11pm which is when the doors of the art fairs in Basel close for the night, so it’s definitely a nice and interesting thing to do after a day at the fair.

Volta 5

Pecha Kucha Zürich neu im Seefeld Razzia

June 2, 2009

Am 29. Juni 2009 findet die fünfte Zürcher Pecha Kucha Night statt. Die Besucherzahlen stiegen während der ersten vier Nächte so stark an, dass der Veranstaltungsort nun gewechselt werden muss. Neu findet Pecha Kucha nicht mehr im Cabaret Voltaire sondern im Seefeld Razzia statt.

Pecha Kucha heisst soviel wie “Geschwätz”. Jeder Vortragende hat die Gelegenheit, zu 20 Powerpoint-Folien je 20 Sekunden zu sprechen. Ein Vortrag dauert also exakt 6:40 Minuten. Pecha Kucha wurde in Japan erfunden und wird seither in alle Welt exportiert: bereits in 199 Städten auf der ganzen Welt wird Pecha Kucha durchgeführt.

Jeder kann bei Pecha Kucha mitmachen. Ein Mail an die Veranstalter genügt, um sich zu bewerben. Und vielleicht stehst auch Du schon bald auf der Bühne, mit Deinem Projekt, Deinem Anliegen, Deiner Story.

Pecha Kucha Night am 29. Juni 2009
im Seefeld Razzia
Einlass ab 19:00 Uhr
Beginn um 20:20 Uhr
Eintritt CHF 5.-
