los angeles chose the smokestack began with street art in the one nine hundred eighty s. but now here's a well established artist traded his spray can for a paint brush a long time ago. the odds are now when i used to have one painting it was addictive it was really like a drug. just feel like an artist and i'm reading focused on the style and the expression. so it's a different work to your work. i only feel like an artist now so i don't need to illegal any more. than an artist's mental gussie have contributed several works they've placed portraits of current staff members at the iron works on its pipes gratings and silos. they print out the photos in extra large format in their berlin studio they'd been

chosen a hut where workers once took their breaks and artistically processed nine hundred seventy s. german posters about safety in the work place. where you can use this right i work with smaller pictures that i can send through a fax machine so they come out with visible pixels then i paint a larger version of that. and finally i add god the signal colors to the images he results are all the evil. another hundred or so works of urban art from twenty countries are set against the imposing backdrop of the charge once a storage space for raw materials for the iron works. street art that has made its way onto campus. artistic couldn't still open art is an art form that originated on the streets a street art among friends and couldn't slow it is art that has come from the

words less means more in the mean time on the complete opposite of that spectrum there is another movement that embraces abundance it's called maximal ism here more really means more with bright and garish colors matched up with lively and decorative patterns this is how it works. how does bush shapes move past this shows us how she's decorated headlands an apartment in the maximalist style long live abundance decorate til you drop. oh this is my colorful polish color makes me happy so a key thing with some of this movement is mixing mixing color mixing pattern and
11:37 am
bringing together a lot of objects behind up there we have the tools and there is not just one not just two there's like twenty two so rather than be tane i think . take it to the max. her apartment is full of unusual objects all have a special meaning for. misty post images of her maximalist ideas also show media last week thanks to the internet the british born trend is spreading like wildfire. interior designer and also emily henson says when it comes to living trends over crowding is in her latest book tells more so i have noticed a change from neutral tasteful almost like scandinavian style interiors towards more colorful parts and for old homes i think much. is about breaking the rules i
11:38 am
don't think it has to be good i think it has to be your taste. the growing number of shops in london or adopting the more is more style and carry a range of fun pieces from across the world. the search for the origin of the maximalist and trend leads emily hanson to abacha a her own store and. the design is one of the styles pioneers. by her mix is the old with the new and doesn't shy away from bling. anything that kind of you know raises the hots and makes the hot it beat you're creating this really happy space so i get such a kick out of people coming in and they immediately smile and i immediately makes me happy because it lifts the spirits and that's what interiors should do they should make you feel happy in a place that you never want to leave. because her lives in the nineteenth century terraced house her trademarks are a dark color palettes extravagant accessories and in your face texture combinations

. maximalist and breaks many widespread design conventions and her knows how interior design influences the senses and you have less to come in it looks lovely . it's pared back but you're done you've read it whereas here my eyes over here and it's over here and all of that school and it's over there and it feels really engaging and exciting and that's why i'm so obsessed with this whole maximalist more is more thing it's a hard look to pull off because there's a really fine line between making it fail over the top crazy. that's the designer's house me seem clotted but in fact she follows rules she's devised to sew so the rules for me are don't use more than three or four colors in a room because otherwise it just is too schizophrenia for the brain. lighting is fundamental texture and pattern are a bit like a hope and a spice from a and then the biggest thing that scares people the most. is playing
11:40 am
around with. pieces in a small a space creates a fairytale atmosphere but is this just a short lived trend or a reel of tentative to minimalism which is dominates upon stick. so i do think it is not a trend it's not a trend i think it's a difficult look to pull off and people are scared of doing it but i'm i think gaining momentum i don't think that you can feel completely happy when you have one table a few chairs around and a lot of white paint going on. that would be amazing if our house could just literally and scandi minimal could go and if all is war and maximum could stay for another hundred years because i think if we all embrace more is more we would live in a happier place. one thing is certain if you want to express yourself to the full and be creative maximal ism is the way to go.
11:41 am
does look like a hard look to pull off but if you want to get some more home improvement ideas then please check out our facebook page ok moving on now to a favorite drink in germany coffee it said the germans drink more coffee than beer if you can believe that well a good cup of coffee of course depends on the beans here in europe there is just one coffee growing area which is located on the island of gran canaria its fertile soil is conducive for coffee growing so we visited a boutique production company for a lesson in what makes a good cup of coffee. harvesting coffee on the canary islands but how can you tell when a coffee cherry is ripe for picking up. your imax reporter hendrik belling learns the tricks of the trade from coffee plantation owner antonio marquez only the red ones yes all of our rights ok. no no no noise up again without the branch
11:42 am
because that's what next year's fruit was grown and given it was in a flutter. this is how you do it. but we're making the coffee cherries by hand is harder than it looks. on large plantations ripened and right fruits are harvested altogether by machines here they only pick grapes cherries. not wonder why only harvest the coffee when it's ripe and then work or even know that we will check every plant five or six times. takes a lot more time and money than checking each plant just twice given the quality of the coffee is better if you only select the right fruits more yourself they were allowed to be left with. europe's only coffee growing area is on gran canaria the third largest of the canary islands they belong to spain but are located off the northwest coast of africa. the valley where the coffee grows extends to the
11:43 am
village of. it's a volcanic island so its soil is very fertile the valley is home to rich vegetation especially at higher elevations the coffee plantations here are not monocultures though. avocados and citrus fruits are cultivated to prevent the soil from becoming deplete it. that women will to progress through our model quality of the coffee is highly dependent on the soil and the climate precipitation the change in temperature. all of that has an influence on the coffee plants and that's what ultimately determines the taste of what winds up in your cup that you're not really followed in. with it's twelve hundred coffee plants the finke a loss because star nuance is one of the biggest plantations in the valley although the entire region only produces around fifteen hundred kilograms of coffee per year the drop in the ocean compared to global production figures. but here the focus is
11:44 am
on quality not quantity to achieve that great care is taken during processing here for instance the coffee cherries are dried for twenty days on outdoor racks antonio marquez turns them several times a day. everything that there were there. are different ways of drawing the fruits of the over here in the canaries the humidity and temperature are a deal for this. is the most natural process the red fruits are dried by the sun and the wind alone. has been grown here in the valley for around one and a half centuries in some way of life. we pay a visit to mow holes a source a garcia a pensioner who like many here cultivates
11:45 am
a few coffee plants in his own garden uses the coffee himself and gives some to family and friends but the comment from a guy. i always call it the coffee from the aggregate a valley for that because icons in the valley is the best coffee that exists today by the government. i mean we're. growing coffee on gran canaria isn't very lucrative so growers offer tours to generate extra income but what motivates antonio marquez and his staff is the desire to produce top quality beans with the best around the after they've dried the cherries are field these days that's done by a machine. the cherry contains two coffee beans. the roasting process gives coffee its real taste and aroma. so if there. is the most important stuff. during roasting you can really get the best out
11:46 am
of the beans. the coffee from aga it is prized by java experts it was even chosen to represent spain at the world barista championship some what about the taste it's totally different. for gov. soren sweden but fruit but not like coffee. europe's only home. own coffee comes from the valley on gran canaria a unique coffee with think you make flavor. and you can catch up with hendrix adventures in our europe to the max series including lots of background information on our you tube channel all right up next a norwegian performance artist who gives new meaning to the phrase burst your bubble yawn hucking erickson uses balloons of all kinds bursting them with various kinds of sharp objects now his videos have gathered

11:48 am
people started to react very opposed to what what i was doing so i decided to keep on doing it and that small the only thing i do so. the forty year old artists videos have fans all over the world he has hundreds of thousands of followers on social media. but he doesn't restrict himself to bursting balloons. in twenty eighteen he made a popular series of clips showing him smashing i don't cook spaghetti with his head . you also incorporates things he's not keen on interest on such as and long talks and gym equipment which the self-confessed exercise painter significant thank. you for i don't have like a huge message and i kind of think that there is enough for itself it's like art for art's sake is you don't have to have this message in that and i really hate off
11:49 am
that's like that like street art and things like i got this means this is the worst ever. for the. many artists use social media to raise. they profile and find a gallery to sculpt and performance artist young hartmann erickson these platforms themselves are the best exhibition space. has turned his back on the analogue world even though he's done very well that. sort of frustrating for me that you're make something on the up life or an exhibition space and they have to wait a few months to see if you get an exhibition and maybe like it was a year or two years to get the exhibition to takes too much time and after wait for too long. as soon as he has an idea he makes it happen.
