Pixeleye Vernissage 21.11.2008 Ludwigsburg
Am kommenden Freitag findet im Four Runners Club (Ludwigsburg) meine Vernissage zur kommenden Solo-Ausstellungstour statt.

Gezeigt werden ca. 30 großformatige Fotografien aus den Bereichen Hot Rod & Pin-Up. Leider kann ich nicht persönlich anwesend sein, da ich mit von Donnerstag bis Sonntag in Basel & Zürich/Schweiz bin, um eine neue Werbekampage mit Zoe Scarlett zu shooten. Das sollte Euch aber nicht davon abhalten am Donnerstag vorbeizuschauen, denn es gibt auch noch ordentlich etwas auf die Ohren! :)

Pixeleye Exhibition Flyer

Ausstellung ausgewählter Werke von Dirk Behlau aka "The Pixeleye"

Pünktlich zum Erscheinen seines neuen Bildbandes "Hot Rod Empire Inc." zeigt der Fotograf Dirk Behlau aka Pixeleye eine Auswahl seiner Werke. Behlau fotografiert mit Vorliebe "Kool Lifestyle": amerikanische Automobile der 30er bis 70er Jahre, klassische Pin-Ups voller Glamour, Rockstars und außergewöhnliche Menschen mit Attitude.

Organisiert und umgesetzt wird die Ausstellung von Damned Clothing und Redcat 7. Beide Berliner Modelabels haben sich die Vernetzung von Designern und Künstlern, Mode und Kunst auf die Fahnen geschrieben und bereits in der Vergangenheit Ausstellungen mit verschiedenen Künstlern sowie Bühnenaufbauten für Bands und Musiker realisiert.

Die Ausstellung wird am 21.11.2008 im Four Runners Club in Ludwigsburg eröffnet. Zur Vernisage spielen die Bands V8 Wankers, Slam & Howie and the Reserve Men sowie The Carburetors. Anschließend werden Dirk Behlaus Fotografien von 5.-7.12.2008 in Berlin im Rahmen der 18. Tattoo Convention zu sehen sein. Im Januar wird die Ausstellungsreihe fortgesetzt, so u.a. in der Berliner Titty Twister Bar. Weitere Locations sind in Planung.

Drink and Drive: Coffee Cup Competition


The best coffee in town can be found right opposite the DESIGNSPOTTER headquarters in the Belgian Quarter of Cologne: At the Red Vic on Bruesseler Street.

We can’t even estimate how many gallons of coffee we’ve drank this year. With every other cup we had a thought though: In the days of global warming and climate change modern urbanites choose their bike as their preferred means of transportation. On their way to the office they like to grab a “coffee to go”.

Or more likely would LIKE to grab a coffee! How can you ride your bike and drink your coffee safely at the same time?

This is more than enough reason for us to initiate a competition together with the Red Vic. We are looking for the coolest and most relaxed solution on how to ride your bike and simultaneously drink a scrumptious coffee.
