Escheresque- modern house allows flow by Berlin Wall memorial. video: youtube: Kirsten Dirksen
When Helle Schröder and Martin Janekovic (XTH-Berlin) signed a 199-year lease on some land along the old Berlin Wall, they had a permit to build a row house, but despite the two shared walls, they wanted something that felt airy and light-filled. ( text: Kirsten Dirksen)

‘Two Guedras’ by Irving Penn, Morocco 1971.
In case you wonder, my new avatar is a canvas painted by Keith Haring in 1989 and called “Unfinished Painting”. Haring died few months after and this is his last painting. This is supposed to be a self-portrait. Haring knew he wouldn’t have enough time to finish it. This is one of the saddest but certainly the most powerful thing I’ve ever seen.
