4pm - 6pm "Artist Gather for a Sunday Dinner at Mess Hall"

One of the things that we did at most host houses in Berlin and Hannover was to share the dinner table, for conversation and dialogue "Cultures Connecting". During dinner each artist discussed, talk about, and contribute different prospectives of what they got from the International Art Adventures, including projects, that intersected with poets, writers, puppeteries, musicians, and performance artist.
Chicago Calling via Skype, will call on musicians and visual artists from East Berlin, to share at the dinner table conversations, that as artist how they each survived, behind the Iron Curtain. Peter Vicent (Musician), Addi Kremer, (poet/photographer) who leaves in Hannover, and Ina Lukenhiemer (gallerist/photographer) who lives in Pankow, Karen Zdgzsche (tour guide)some interesting stories of their  time growing up during the cold war,and the fall of the Berlin Wall.
