a german artist creates images from dirty truck mirrors. in flower fashions how a master tailor uses an age old method for modern clothes. to experience art some people go to museums and gallery openings or special exhibitions or some people get the inside scoop to a private dinner created by artists and designers while recently in the netherlands two star french chef. prepared avian menu for sixty guest for the experimental gastronomy series of events now not only was the food a work of art the cutlery and the table decorations were also special and of course we were on hand for the experience. begin cuisine presented in an unusual way that's the idea behind experimental

gastronomy. in amsterdam these guests eager to see what awaits them. hoping to get more inspiration maybe to put some more plant bases would have helped very nice fine dining i got a clue it's a big surprise to me that i'm here but the biggest surprise of all of the dishes and cutlery they play a major role in the event ten artists have spent months creating them. one of them is you learn from the viewer if the artist were a superhero he'd be magnetic art many of his works are made from iron fillings shaped by the power of industrial magnets and they're inspired by nature. rocks or. parts of trees. and a process i use is. it's very. close related to true to

gravity field color of. his studio in amsterdam houses this machine he built himself he calls it his gravity tool. with the help of magnets and a paste comprised of plastic and i am fillings he's created a bread basket for the experimental gastronomy evening. the magnets do most of the work and he just makes a few improvements afterwards. while the finished product is both a dish and a work of art and one of a kind. of thing is one thing of course and the visual thing is a very important thing i think if you see something. that's a kind of aggressive it it in my day is different do you see something very softly or cute. and it's on the go team is responsible for the color nearly side of

things even lends a hand to preparing the ravioli filled with seebach phone and p pureed the chef may have to michelin stars but preparing this week in menu was a challenge and his team spent a month trying out recipes like this one for mentored radishes. the challenge is to get an explosion of tastes and colors we need to make sure that the colors don't fade green needs to be a noticeable green even green or after cooking on the inside there needs to be something enjoyable sometimes with begin cooking it's a little dry it's not so enjoyable because everything is just there to replace animal protein. at seven pm the guests arrive this evening will cost them one hundred fifty euros per head many of the guests are artists themselves others simply want to try something new the hosts have a clear mission my purpose was to make people more conscious while the story i.

your distance guess would be simulated to even more aware by using talk to me and that's where it is strange and unusual. behind the scenes head chef alexander just team of fourteen make the final preparations to the various courses this one sprays dresses with god and sorrow them spelt served on stone slabs. the dishonest utensils make eating it rather tricky the matter of these huge streams came from the former soviet union the guests are in a jovial mood now and the only missing course is the dessert. it's chocolate made from kind of cocoa naturally without milk the response to the man is largely positive. it was nice because. it added the piece of bread in its so it almost looked like it was rising out of growing out of the peas it also made me very aware of the cutlery. but yes it was very pure the food was very pure

overall we thought it was just really creative and really special never had anything like this i do love. the great diversity and i do love the passion. and i do love the convincement but i don't like the fruits. to the team has fulfilled their mission and are rewarded with a round of applause from the guests who flew over the horizon and learned a thing or two about bacon cuisine. well those artist certainly aren't starving it looks like it was a lively evening now is a good time to let you in on the winner of this week's drano we had asked you in which atmosphere you like to dine the two most popular answers were dining with friends or family candlelight dinners came in third in the mean time the winner of our draw this. week is how kaufman from budapest in hungary so congratulations file

stood twenty eight to be exact and this fact is being highlighted at this year's architectural be an alley in venice now under the title un building walls the curators of the german pavilion have taken the opportunity to research the effects of german division and the process of healing after reunification. a black and. only when visitors move around to they realize there are gaps in the first impression of the display at the german pavilion and titled on building moves is quite dramatic for me east german civil rights activist nothing out of worked with the architects of graft to explore the free space left behind by the fall of the wall between for my east and west germany. the death strip that divided the city of poland measured a stunning one hundred fifty five kilometers. its removal left a vacuum

a gaping wound that needed to be healed and this really at a very practical level. has got kind of there was no overall strategy or master plan but there were obvious questions that needed to be answered bridges that needed rebuilding train lines that needed connecting and then there was the question of what to do with particularly sensitive areas and. different space gave way to a new party culture many like discourses an empty buildings burning off of virtually unparalleled freedoms and in one thousand nine hundred the city became a hit. very few of the free spaces from back then are still left today precious lotzen prime locations were quickly snapped up by developers a building being followed the former death street was partly transformed giving way to offices shopping malls and luxury apartments. only a few traces of the berlin wall remain. the memorial site at ban our shasta is the

last drop of war where visitors can get a sense of the full extent of the border fortifications that once stood here. the german pavilion un building walls celebrates twenty eight years since the fall of the berlin wall by showcasing twenty eight different projects. the most recent one is still a building site is the new headquarters of the spring a media group that will stand opposite the a regional building which. fifty years ago right next to the berlin wall quite a political statement at the time. the new building designed by him courthouse stands directly on the former death strip. the design traces the course of the berlin wall diagonally through the building leaving the area void and creating a large interior. the nerve center of the new spring a campus will be the digital newsroom. as the force of use

a little bit like an empty theater with multiple levels it'll be loud full of energy and journalists so here on what was once the death strip you'll have a place full of life probably the liveliest place in berlin or in building. but i'm building malls is not only about germany. at the venice biennale are people from six different countries talk on video about me their experiences with border walls from mexico and cyprus to israel. and i know that the un when asked about their hopes a number of those interviewed talked about the fall of the berlin wall inside what we experienced in germany seems to resonate with many around the world and offers them a ray of hope you. need but moles can cast long shadows. decades

after the fall of the berlin wall and political arena for cation the german pavilion in venice makes clear that wolves are still being built. next up a german artist who has a passion for truck rear view mirrors but the interesting part is that they have to be coated in dust and dirt before he will photograph them using an image editing program nicolo vigen are then turns the images into a colorful shots that almost look like paintings while seeing is believing so we went along on a shoot for a glimpse of his mirror images. can lend us a sneak peek into specializes in taking pictures of trucks specifically those with does seem there is a windows on the desk here the best set. is a good candidates. and if i take

a picture of your mirror. this. lucky today on his first try i. know he can get to work. in the dirt is perfect beautiful really sharp edges. and there's a lot of dirt on the edges here and a runs down to the end of the mirror. so it's super. ok do you know yet what it's going to look like in the end no idea. all run into the software and decide which colors look best and how to make the contours really stand out.

nicolo experiments with different shades of colors and with various levels of sharpness until he gets the result he wants. he got the idea for all this when he was on vacation and pulled over at a truck stop. i looked at the mirror on one truck and it was white with these great bands of dirt on it and i thought it looked like someone had painted it . or some artist would have to work for weeks to get the same effect but there it was on the marilyn truck after a two or three day drive. but it was like that and strong as.

down here you can see that one side of the mirror wasn't. speaking with you this is the party that some stickers on it looks like a watercolor. with. every pic to document a journey time spent on the road that's why i need to learn includes information about the driver and way he was headed. so you don't get enough credit but it's a tough job and sometimes they're on the road for days. long new clothes work started sixteen hundred year. if i sell a picture you will make money to. ok ok ok ok. we'll keep rounding the truck stops finding new inspiration wherever he goes. to turn our attention now into a woman who is clearly out they hell. in her job nicola langrish is the first

german captain on a cruise ship well she got her start on a container ship and quickly moved up the nautical ladder and now it thirty four she bears responsibility for around three thousand people and crew on board. pulling into port on the canary island off. a two hundred fifty metre korean ship gently climb close to the. nobody of the great has time to enjoy the scenery everyone is concentrating haunt on their jobs. it's the first time nicola has had soul come on. you tube is this which to me it's sure not an easy job but i think if you can do it you can do it. it would be doable with a car but this is something else all together. she made it this ship is securely mood at the dock. a very good morning to you to passengers or when a stay is as they say here in santa cruz that upon my name's nicola and i'm

a captain. this is a first for the cruise industry the first german woman to achieve the rank of captain. my heart skipped a few beats but i have to say i'm aware that i've got a team behind me the entire team on the bridge that operates the ship one person can't do it or learn. cruise ships are offering attractive opportunities to women in leadership positions during the last ten years he called long which has taken several steps up the career ladder at sea. of course you shoulder the overall responsibility you have to be everywhere on board the ship it's not just running the ship you also have to represent it and you have to make preparations for a voyage foreign advance. planning courses and looking ahead to some of what she learned from her mentor captain could he's also come along on this voyage to give some last second tips before handing over the helm when the captain long us studied navigation she loves plotting the course. all she needs now is the cap

and with it captain quits hands over command officially. and i'd like to present this captain's camp to you now and we all wish you the best of luck best wishes and by your guests always be satisfied. now captain long us has taken on responsibility for some two thousand passengers always having to deal with many different people at once was one of the things that made her go for the job at the top now the offices daily briefings are in a woman's hands up the bridge crew discuss all the north dakota and weather data for the next call at an island ports her mentor mostly keeps his mouth shut now the offices expectations are clear. just the same as with any other captain you expect that you have to have trust cats in longish always keeps her mobile phone on her

even when she goes jogging still a bit of time away from the job does her good. the surface seeing the ship from this perspective you can clear your mind to let your thoughts run free now all the ports in the world are her home and feel an awful part of it we travel around europe a lot and i'm sure we'll travel around the world but of course when i only stay at my home address in germany for a few months a year i feel more like a european yeah it's all appear that. today tools to close in santa cruz de la palma. when the hobbit pilot comes aboard it can't be long before the ship pulls out again he's an experienced seaman who sake in the hands of thousands of captains from the world over but sofa there's only been one other woman for five not six months if we manage for the quantock to have a really good because it was a very. carefully inches had joined cruise ship away from the dock ok.

so we've got fifty thousand dollars province up to training and practice. for. captivity called has made his dream her profession the best in the world as far as she's concerned. well ships aren't exactly known for being good for the environment so luckily there are plenty of other people who are doing their part to help the planet and one of them is master taylor on a sandwich and instead of using toxic dyes she colors her fabrics with petals and leaves from plants now her method revived the ancient art of flower printing making her garment not only unique but also sustainable.

unassigned regime is a tailor who uses local flowers and leaves to give natural colors to her from rings . there's so much variety in nature but you can almost always find what she wants. in finding the leaves have a different color in the spring than often i'm going to try these flower buds today for the first time you've. done it has been using natural materials like these just not tree leaves to dye fabrics for some time now the process is ecologically sustainable and environmentally friendly. and as our bishop has a tailor shop and wrote a blog when the weather's nice she prefers to work outside in the garden at the cost side that the leaves helps bring out the color. sometimes ana and her assistant add some exotic materials to the mix like turmeric or the blossoms of longwood trees. because time you go to the chestnut leaves will turn brown but the

buds will stay yellow the onion skins are red a mess local it will turn out a nice dot blue that should. stay in line about every batch is different so it's always a surprise and i can't wait to see the finished product but it does take some patience. this is actually an ancient method today it's called eco grant believes not only provide color but also leave an imprint on the fabric. to make sure there aren't any creases. for this part of the process ana and her assistant use old bed sheets table clogs or drapes. soft type which can figure it's a lot of fun i've travelled around a loss and i've seen how people in other countries waste resources i think it's great that on this recycling these materials you can make something new out of

something old. into the notes but. here they're using magnolia blossoms beet roots and rhubarb leaves the materials are then soaked for two hours in a solution of iron and copper sulphate. solution helps to lock in the colors so they don't wash out afterwards enter shop on it has lots of material that she's dyed herself she uses the materials to make skirts dresses and even handbags . is always coming up with new ideas. each item is unique and there's a lot of customer demand for on his creations. and after two hours it's time to one day old the final product. it's like opening a birthday present. the turmeric has left behind some beautiful yellow shades.

and the rhubarb leaves made an indelible impression on the fabric now they'll just hang around to dry for sure and that's just gorgeous the colors have such depth you're not going to get that with chemical based. just quickly became a chicago gun machine. it's a new and sustainable way to breathe new life into old bricks. hanging out to dr knot the idea that we come to the end of another show but don't forget to keep up with the program on our social media pages for me and the rest of us here on max as always that thanks for joining us bye for now but we will see you again soon. next time on your own backside. for thirty consecutive years now parishioners are gathered dressed all in white for the annual do now brought. me original
