for on shaky ground you just couldn't get in the first round of this review. and it is. not just. the angler dish the dawn of islam is an exclusive d.w. report starting april twenty first. i want to welcome to another show i'm your host and meghan lee from sleeping giants to award winning sound artist we have a packed show in store here's a look at what's coming up. life like models of photographer creates miniature worlds with a quirky touch. limited access to location scouting and her

unusual finds for film locations. in swiss specialty we enjoy a hearty meal from swaziland right here in the german capital. for a job or for a frank crew not to likes to play with people's perceptions now aside from taking photographs cronut spends hours building minutes for models of buildings streets bridges or various scenes then he photographs them to the viewer these look like real settings until you look a bit closer and that's when you notice that something is a bit off or out of the ordinary or his photographs are meant to make statements about society as he perceives it. a place to sit down with a good book become few reading in an underwater. just calls it a diver's paradise the photo and its object.

basic idea is that you immerse yourself in another world far away from your everyday problems it's like a piece. this model served as the setting for a photo titled. an allusion to the carefully composed holiday snaps in travel magazines. illusions in the studio and i suppose to a local fenton i always think that's fascinating it's a way of playing with reality. it. chronicles his miniature worlds. some a caricature and some are quirky. he calls this image into the blue yonder. downwards is aimed at escapist who refuse to see the abyss beside them. i want to show the whole spectrum of life from tragedy to comedy. before he reaches for the camera he constructs the settings in his studio. the bed the sink and the parts every detail

gets the same attention he finds many of the miniatures online he also uses modeling clay customized tools and paint. in this scale syringes are an essential tool a bottle of red wine he stands ready to welcome this apartments new residents. but actually the apartment listing probably reads like this a fully furnished one room apartment and upon arrival the prospective renter gets a surprise. cancun draws inspiration from the real world he lives in the west in germantown of pop art on the rhine river when he's on the road he looks not so much for beauty. traces of time passing. he was born in france as in one nine hundred sixty three and after leaving school trained to be a photographer. starting up professionally in commercial photography he began constructing his little boats as he calls them in the mid nine hundred ninety s.

. come from every day life and i mix them up with impressions i get such as the way an old have the passage of time and the lives that were laid out. and i try to funnel all that into my image. i am the transitory nature of modern everyday life the people's worries and dreams these are the things that we currently miss where this bridge provided the inspiration for this photograph under the bridge. once he's had an idea he stands to sketch for a model. that we haven't yet made any place other than this is my favorite alter bridge come this way and at one point the idea came china there's a housing shortage across germany especially in the cities so what are the little house were built in the bridge pillars that are sort of tiny houses totally

fashionable right now and. it will show a lot of problems. back in his studio he gets to work on his solution to the housing crisis. invests from two weeks to three months on his meticulously crafted three d. models. sometimes i wonder why i do this to myself it would all be much easier if i use photoshop but by doing it this way i feel like i'm breathing life into things. once it's finished his three d. model photographs the result with an analog camera that's around thirty years old. his photographs depict just like the real thing only not quite could it doesn't alter the images digitally before he publishes them. his most recent book is called

life style. it's his. stage the thrills with his or her own imagination. to me that's more exciting than filling it with people. people might be absent from his images but some of the miniature models are imbued with the human presence funny. stories that linger in the mind. more artistic expression is coming up as we take a look around germany's biggest trade fair for contemporary art that plus a focus on fashion in london coming up in today's express. since thursday two hundred ten exhibitors from thirty three countries have been welcoming the public to view works of contemporary art and classical art. over two

thousand artists from major names to young talents have works here. alone is germany's biggest and the world's oldest art fair it started out in one thousand nine hundred sixty seven. this year it will run until april twenty second . more prominent on friday an exhibition titled the empty house featuring work. opened in berlin franco american artist who died at the age of ninety aged twenty is often described as a pioneer a feminist. exhibition center piece is how work. rabbit skins which scrutinises origins family life and the sculpture devoted her life to art but only gained international recognition after turning seventy exhibition will run

parking lots dams or on the sides of buildings now their signature style includes large sleepy characters which can mostly be seen in public spaces but they also have paintings in galleries throughout the world of they say they really don't care where they display their art as long as they can paint or draw. the sleeping giant while the work of the artist and peter. snoozing and exhausted characters can be found on the sides of buildings and carriage doors in. central france that makes a statement about the underprivileged members of society refugees the homeless or the elderly who are often neglected or even forgotten. for many of these projects the artists receive sponsorship and it's enough to be able to live from their.

work out of their studio and. there are a couple both personally and professionally with no clear division of labor in their work. our point of view. now maybe people are. there. because they feel. stuck in. maybe something like that. that. was once a boom town for coal production but the last of the mines closed down in the early one nine hundred seventy s. and since then the town of struggled to find a new industry to sustain it as well as its residents. learn peter's murals reflect this reality in almost every corner of the city back in the studio the artists prepare their subjects on paper they then paste them on a wall or on the side of

a building for the larger murals they use paint the themes depend on what inspires them or the size of the space. we just love to do so every day everywhere it's a good. inside our. we don't. we just need to pay and. they never ask for permission to put on one of their drawings public reaction to their work is mixed with some people viewing it as vandalism of a public space. we just need. somebody of them. about their problem for their off the floor before. the scale of their drawings varies from post to murals and they don't limit themselves to something. from norway and eastern europe to canada and japan. peter travels where

the next project will take. one of the most challenging works to date was painted on the. outside. so we heard about these. from somebody with dennis maybe there is a. there but i don't know exactly where it is so we decided to do founded because maybe it was interesting we decided to. the small i react do you mind if we ban something on your name and yes it could be so nice for us to have a growing from you on this so. that. the local council pitched in and meanwhile continue to spread and social message all over the. before

a movie or television series takes place lots of preparation goes into finding the exact locations for the shoots and that is the job of a location scout now they go out weeks even months ahead of time and test spaces until they find the right one will berlin as a film location has been growing in popularity over the years so we've companied a scout on the job to see which spots are the favorites. be it nazi thrillers darkseid fire films or historical movies berlin's temple airport is a popular filming location with movie makers also because film crews don't bother anyone when they work here in the disused airport. mario in your heart is a location scout. she suggested that counterpart be shot here it's a u.s. spy series set in berlin. i have come to this building every day

and my job. decades i've given to this office. but honestly sometimes it scares me. i don't know what we do here. for several years now filmmakers from across the globe have been frequenting berlin to shoot movie scenes here but that's making things harder for the local movie industry. fulfilling the occasions of rising american movie makers have more money than local film projects they can pay high rents those who rent out the locations think prices will just keep going up said things are tricky for small german film crews with small budgets. but the film business is booming despite location rents now sometimes as high as ten thousand euros a day. the area around berlin central train station is also very popular. crew for counterparts filmed in a nearby hotel. they wanted

a very particular angle it was pretty complicated and we couldn't get it done anywhere on gendarme mocked is unfair let's do this so then we thought of the starting back a hotel in this area and that worked out. fine to me. there's not one favorite filming location in town but some spots are more popular than others. as. filming is done near the iconic. in the cults back district so much in fact that the city's traffic management has put an end to it. noble feeling that it's megabit. good thing then that tempelhof airport is no longer in use since two thousand the site has been the location of choice for sixty different movie and t.v. productions and it'll probably remain just a sought after in the future. time now for something to eat and berlin is not just one of the most exciting cities in europe it is

a melting pot of nations people from some one hundred eighty nine countries live here and many of them bring a piece of their homeland with them in the form of call unary delight so today for our series fifty kitchens one city we're trying out a specialty from switzerland. doesn't help much but i may have a swiss passport but at heart i've always been a big fan of germany from what i like about berlin is that it's so multicultural we're but different cultures come together here so it was clear to me that if we left switzerland again then only for berlin and then fly. on sligo was born in germany in the one nine hundred seventy five to a swiss father and german mother but he often spent the holidays at his grandparents in the swiss come. up to training as a chef ever worked all over the world before settling in switzerland. in twenty

explore the architectural concerns of fire and and home can make you aware of the place. while heightening a sense of yourself and place. the scottish sound artist feels an uninterrupted listening experience is vital. this is so people of justin have an affinity for music some singers and they'll be excited by this work and love this conceptual contemporary piece and that's exactly what we're trying to achieve. the installation is truly intriguing and it can be experienced until late may. and before we sign off we want to announce the winner of this week's draw now all this week we have asked you to write in and let us know which topics you would like us to cover here on your max arts and design and european traditions were the most popular with our viewer reviewers and we will gladly take
