history and
present of EXPO 3000:
the astounding experiment of spunk seipel - one of the forerunners of the nowadays blooming young art scene of friedrichshain - proved to be quite successful. this
project produced an art exposition each week on
thursdays with a new artist: the
fact that there was something new each week at the expo 3000 created thus,
a forum was in existence for as many artists as
possible also,
if you missed something good the last time, you
could not see it again, though,
of course, the artistic quality of the expositions
was mixed, in
those three years, all that amount of weekly
creativity was in
addition to the regular thursday event, there were
other irregular events as well, spunk
was not willing to disregard any aspects of
creativity. finally,
something very special must be said: at
other art events, you would meet these strange and
distinguished people at expo 3000, people drank beer and could talk to
everybody about everything without having to pretend
any high levels of attitude i
think this emotional easiness must be attributed to
the nature of spunk seipel sadly,
this art gallery does no longer exist ~
furthermore, spunk seipel has been curating and partaking in various art projects, holding lectures as well. at present, he is involved as organiser of cultural events at KLOSTERSCHEUNE ZEHDENICK
