Of course it isn't just art

The house that I saw that had shoes all down the front of it turns out to be a really interesting project, particularly for someone like me interested in the intersection between brands and culture (in this case high culture - art). It is an empty house where different artists have been allowed to install their work in the different flats. And the whole thing is sponsored by a DIY chain, Hornbach, here in Germany. I like that. I think it's quirky and interesting. And above all surprising for a DIY brand,which are generally much less interested in art and more interested in wallpaper. So good on them. I am definitely going to go and have a look. And you should too, if you are in Berlin. Torstrasse 166. Open from 12-22.00 til 12 October.
