Intimacy

PLEASE NOTE: This is an event \*\*not in the Northern neighborhoods of Berlin\*\* as is most often the focus of our meetup group. We commit to doing this only selectively, but wanted to share this special, free event in Kreuzberg with you. The Erotic Album ([FLORETS](https://linktr.ee/florets.mag), 2025) is a unique photo-/poetry-book made to pair with a musical album. The multimedia collection by Berlin-based creatives Madhvi Ramani, Lutz Gallmeister and Monika Kozub will connect you to the pleasure, tenderness, and creative power of the erotic through 11 poems paired with vibrant collaged visuals. Join the faces behind this project for a special listening session with a listening session and artist talk in the warm space of Ivallan's Books, one day after Valentine's Day. We'll explore the making of this project, the power (and accompanying stigmas) of erotic writing and how each artist was able to explore it through their own unique creative talents. This is a free event, with the option to purchase the book exclusively stocked at ivallan's. By purchasing this book, you are supporting three individual artists as well as independent publishing, so bring your friends and spend your Sunday sundown with us!

Silent Book Club is a group of book lovers who enjoy reading together in public. All books and all readers are welcome.
