Antwerp / Bookstore

Simply the best and most beautiful bookstore in our city.

Madrid / Hotel

This is a fabulous Hotel called Silken Puerta América, where each floor is designed by a different architect. It is open for public visiting. This year the Hotel was hosting the art fair Just Madrid and I was totally amazed by the first floor design of my favorite architect Zaha Hadid.

Vienna / Place

There is one thing finally that is good about vienna’s small size, to reach the river danube and its two side arms in summer, when its boiling hot, takes only few minutes. All the life is transferred from the center to the river banks, swim and barbecue in summer, ice skating in winter. If you exit the subway at Neue Donau station you will see the small tower of viennas biggest mosque that is located on the danube island. You can go there and visit, if you are lucky, you will be offered dryed figues and dates and you can watch the prayers repose themselves lying on mattrasses in the cool.

Mumbai / Restaurant

Homely restaurant specializing in veggie & meat dishes from North India, from tandoori to tikka. Real indian food, I mean r e a l .

Utrecht / Creative Space

Kapitaal is a silkscreen workplace where i used to be involved with a lot. After leaving it, I still return quite often for silkscreening, a lecture, exhibitions, a party, or just for good talks.

Berlin / Shop

Best record store in Berlin. A great selection of Rock, Folk, Indie, Wave, Industrial and especially the huge floor dedicated to House and Techno Records. Staff are typical Berlin-Style - not very friendly but very knowledgeable.

Springfield / Shop

Springfield is a good place to find junk, and the STD Central is a fun place to start. Visitors from out of town will be sure to find all sorts of Missouri ephemera and other goodies.

Portland / Cafe

Home to the best breakfast burrito in the world. But their hours are unpredictable and they often run out of eggs (possible?) early and have to close. So get there early or plan for a weekday visit.

Brunswick / Place

This image was taken on my Rolleiflex in my beautiful little Brunswick cottage whom I share with my fella Jacob and two cats, this one is Min, the other one is Charlie. I love our little home so much, it is really cosy and I am lucky to come home to these guys every night.

Paris / Shop

Lovely space in the 10th arrondissement, near place de la République. With a fine selection of home decoration and useful things.

Düsseldorf / Art

The Polish Institute Düsseldorf is one of many Polish Institutes worldwide which were established by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Poland. It aims to promote the cultural relationships between Poland and Germany using the presentation of Polish art, cinema, theatre, music, and literature and to intensify the mutual exchange of history, politics, education and society. The Polish Institute Düsseldorf was founded in 1993. It is active not only in North-Rhine Westphalia but also in Rhineland-Palatinate, Hessen and Saarland.

It frames programs of theatres, cultural festivals, cinemas and concert halls and organizes study tours and educational and youth projects.

London / Restaurant

Wonderful place for an indulgent afternoon tea. My favourite room is the millennial pink bathed Gallery room where the walls are covered in a sea of original David Shrigley art. The bathrooms feature beautifully designed individual egg-like pods and there's even a waiter whose sole focus is to serve you caviar.

Art director, designer and sometimes-trying-hard-to-be-conceptual-artist who enjoys exploring all kinds of puzzling ideas, vibrant concepts and non-linear thoughts.

Treviso / Music Producer

The music of Isaac de Martin, otherwise known as IKE, blends jazz and electronic influences into warm, smooth, and often cinematic soundscapes. A certain eclecticism is not surprising considering that the composer, producer and guitarist was born in Italy into a musical family with British roots, lived 10 years in Berlin, studied classical guitar, graduated in jazz and went on to develop his personal style through creative experimentation, live touring and collaborative work with artists from a variety of disciplines and countries.
