[rohrpost] Berlin Series of Art Talks incorporating the Saas Fee "White Mountain" legacy

[Geert Lovink]

I'm giving a series of talks which will include my archeology of Wolfgang Schirmacher's (R)EVOLUTION IN SAAS FEE  <http://www.huffingtonpost.com/lisa-paul-streitfeld/the-event-in-saas-fee-bad_b_5737080.html> 
as it pertains to a global art movement I have been tracking since I began writing newspaper art criticism in 1997. 

This personal pinnacle was reflected in my experience of BERLIN ART WEEK 2015, which I reviewed for the Huffington Post.

It was published today at the following link:

The talks are being sponsored by the most exciting "art market subversive" project in Berlin: 

Organization for the Democratization of the Visual Arts, launched by David Hadmann, founder of the Meet-up Berlin Art Lovers Group <http://www.meetup.com/Berlin-Art-Lovers/messages/boards/thread/45821502>.

The final talk is from a paper I delivered to the Wroclaw 2013 "Sustainable Art" Conference, which is being published this month.  
It applies the Saas Fee collaborative "Conversion" philosophy <https://hermeneuticsofnewmodernism.wordpress.com/> arising out of Schirmacher's laboratory to Berlin's reunification
