The „Zwischenraum“ collective is continously scouting vacant spaces throughout the city of Mannheim. This summer, they transformed a vacant kiosk at Neumarkt (Neckarstadt-West) into a temporary art space featuring music, literature readings, workshops, art shows, movie screenings, food etc. We were happy to contribute our share to this project with a poster that was presented at the final exhibition on the closing weekend.

We have designed a new magazine for the museums & castles network and the office for cultural affairs of the Rhine-Neckar-area (Europäische Metropolregion Rhein-Neckar). The magazine titled „Die Mussen & Schlösser“ features stories, interviews and information about upcoming exhibitions and special events in the museum and castles of the region. Network members are, among others, the Administration of Castles and Garden of the State of Baden-Württemberg (Heidelberg Castle, Schwetzingen Castle & Garden), Reiss-Engelhorn-Mussen (REM), Kunsthalle Mannheim and Wilhelm-Hack-Museum. Our assignment included devising a graphic as well as an editorial concept. In addition, we have given the magazine “Die Festivals” a facelift. This magazine is published by the network of cultural festivals of the Rhine-Neckar-area. The second issues 2014 of both magazines are out now and can be downloaded at:
