INNERE STADT | SOUND, IMAGE, AND LIVE TEXTE BY PAUL HUTCHINSON
In a presentation specifically created for the opening ceremony of EMOP Berlin 2025 at the Akademie der Künste Berlin, Paul Hutchinson presents an insight into his current workings, bringing together moving image, sound and photographic works in a performative reading. Known for his investigations into urban life, negotiating questions of class, social injustice and inner-city culture, the artist invites us to an audiovisual excursion that includes both recent and unpublished works and texts.
IN CONCLUSION: GET-TOGETHER WITH DJ SET
Bandidas, queer DJ duo from Berlin. Their musical home lies in the exciting field of tension between House and Tropical sounds, weaving warm rhythms and pulsating beats into a unique experience.
Note: Photographs and films will be taken during the event for documentation and public relations purposes.
