cuts. excitement. not such. a. claim. the results on. aforementioned to many people too little space the rent is too high and the time it takes you to get from one place to another is too long. moving from the big city to a small town. in the eastern most tip of germany temporarily he says there's too many retired seniors and too little to do that and fall too much support for the right wing extremist party doesn't necessarily make good it's the city of kevin's dreams. but they are rolling out the red carpet for the artist and

his family. final preparations before moving day kevin needs to drop off his paintings at the gallery. in gurlitz everything has already been taken care of the project testing the city has arranged an apartment working space for kevin and his wife and even a day can spot for their daughter free of charge for full weeks. and everything will be so close by not at all like the length. when i take my daughter to daycare in the morning and then head on to my studio. i've already spent an hour travelling. over the week that

adds up to several hours that i could be using for better things. while he's gone a gallery will be displaying his work in the national and international art scene kevin's made a name for himself as you know. basically 5 pieces prints one framed piece and the 3 originals obviously. price. kevin is especially known as a street artist most of his artwork covers walls and buildings he appreciates all the free space that a city like palin has to offer. the big day has arrived off to get it. since the car is so full. the family decides to travel separately. kevin takes his daughter

amalia in the car. his wife frederico will follow on the train with their newborn nicholai. the trip takes 3 hours on the road and in the train. frederica is still a bit skeptical the far right populist a.f.d. party captured 30 percent of the popular vote during the last parliamentary elections and the last local elections omar saw an a.f.d. man voted into office. but i'll just have to see when we get there see how much it impacts daily life or how conspicuous it is what people are doing to work against it. that's something we could get involved in. we were

originally from a fairly small town in syringe in eastern germany so we're accustomed to polarization and luckily there are always people who fight back. soon. but i'm curious to see what the daycare they arranged for us will be like it'll be a huge difference better our daughter will only be in a group of 12 children whereas here she shares one floor with 60 other children in this open space concept. once they've reached gurlitz the family is greeted by a project walk up. to them. they are shown around their new accommodation for. this and this will be their home for the next 4 weeks. the

wards. 3 rooms a kitchen one bathroom the project is covering their rent. amalia is delighted to discover they have a dishwasher. in fact she seems pleased with everything. and kevin living in a small town with a 3 piece sofa. because the biggest fear is to stagnate in some backwaters to just start moving get stuck. it doesn't matter in which regard whether in my work or with my family. i'm not the type who is always pressing ahead but i don't want to stand still either. kevin has to sign some paperwork before he has handed the keys and the apartment is all his at least for

the next 4 weeks. who. is a development planner and is managing the testing the city project his aim is to attract young people to the ageing town. while many apartments are empty here living space in large cities like palin is becoming increasingly scarce and an affordable. risk of a white divided i think rural spaces more remote areas than small and medium sized cities are all in danger of becoming a marginalized. project is trying to work against the trend we want to showcase goods as a medium sized city that can read the fresh air in major cities and contribute to a more balanced population distribution throughout germany. today he's visiting kevin in his studio the young family has been in gurlitz for 2

weeks now. used to tell if you didn't get it so far is so far it's been quite laid back in a lot of ways it's not as loud as it is in a big city and things are a bit more relaxed and i have lots to do so i am stressed but it's still more laid back than in a large city that. i'm glad to hear that that's what we initially assumed that people would be happy to get away from the stresses of living in a major city and find some tranquility here that it doesn't work to finish that i think it's beautiful here when. sometimes it feels like it's in the wrong place but it's still beautiful and this is news from the start or feedback from the project's participants is important for. it helps them get a better understanding of what young people are missing.

kevin is currently reinventing himself and his work moving away from street art toward small of formats right now he's experimenting with for oil pictures it's work that he could continue doing in gurlitz as well. and yet. to be honest if you compare gurlitz to berlin it's pretty an exciting here in terms of art. and. then you can meet up and exchange ideas with artists from all over the world daemons who finished with. that would hardly ever happen here. being here is great for creating art it's quiet working spaces and studios are all

affordable and they're quite nice but i'd like to access the international market in order to sell my work or the internet. and that's where berlin has a clear advantage. while kevin works sometimes until late at night for the return takes care of the children in berlin they would have never have been able to reach their daycare on foot here it's a 15 minute walk. it's a huge relief and makes and daily routine a lot less stressful because we're not stuck in traffic getting frustrated. frederica asked somalia if she enjoys the war prefers driving to day care like they did in berlin. and how. amalia says she would prefer to be driven to daycare like she was in berlin. when kevin can

find the time he meets with his family in the afternoon so they can all go to the playground together. but so far frederica and kevin haven't managed to make any acquaintances with the other galatz residents. yeah but. we rarely meet other parents here who are open to inviting us to meet up sometimes. in berlin that happens more you know here because people are more open towards strangers we've had rangers here and in berlin almost everyone is a stranger because you can't know everyone. but we still manage to meet some really cool people at the playground at this type of office people it's. a money it doesn't need her father's hand she says she can do it herself. right.

groups. so far the family hasn't noticed the a.f.d. own fan supporters at all. but they have noticed that the residents here do seem a bit more conservative. on the space that you're with us now i don't know if i'm just imagining it but it feels like we're getting stared at more often here because we're of an exotic looking within hip you know a young hip family and like i said maybe it's all in my head before but that's what it feels like to me so for me. after her maternity leave frederica wants to go back to her job in a culture industry but garnett's has little culture to offer. me it's always important to make sure you don't get left behind. this might be a good decision for the kids but i need to make sure that i fulfill my own needs as

well have. a question. it's. final evening in gurlitz in passing the project helped kevin to set up an exhibition. i didn't used to a few concha enthusiastic show up. nevertheless the family has made up its mind. you know we're not going to move here we had a great time and it's a beautiful city. but the people's mindset here just isn't open enough for us. but kevin could still picture coming back from time to time for certain projects.
