Black & White
This weekend was very laid back, which comes as quite an advantage as I wanna focus on my illustration a bit more. On Friday I worked til 12, had a chat with the girls (see below) and ended the night with a nice 'reunion' with Pete and Lasse, who I hadn't seen in ages, at Lasse's house warming. Saturday turned out to be quite relaxed as well although I had to get up at 8 in the morning to attend Jonas', Simon's little brother, Bar Mitzvah. Quite an interesting experience to take part in this three hour event at the synagogue...
In the evning I first met up with Johannes and a friend of his at the vernissage of a small exhibition of the very talented L.A. based illustrator Josh Cochran at Rumkammerat – quite a small place but therefore very familial. We were handed a beer two minutes after our arrival and, as there wasn't many people around, were able to chat with Josh and his wife for quite a while. Very nice and enjoyable folks, who are visiting Denmark for a couple of days in line with the opening. Josh is also gonna hold a lecture at DKDS (my school) upcoming Thursday. By the way, that guy is only 28! And for all those long term design students out there: he also studied for seven years...
After the gallery the three of us went on to the Cinemateket to see the Helvetica movie as part of CPH:DOX. The building is part of the Danish Film Institute and houses a cinema, restaurant, bar, film & book store as well as exhibitions – and it's got some nice neon animation thingy on its exterior wall. The movie was very good by the way, better than I had expected. I can only recommend it to anyone who's at least a bit interested in typography. We finished the night by having a drink at Loppen and meeting up with Guilom, Dora, Chloé, Gabo and his sister in Christiania for a short 'sight seeing tour'.
