If you’re just starting out with watercolours—maybe you’ve painted a bit at home or followed a tutorial or two, but still feel a little lost—I think you’re going to like this! First, we’ll practice **wet-on-wet, layering washes, colour mixing, transparency** and more. After this first part of the class, once you’ve discovered a few watercolour effects, you’ll have time to practise them by applying them to simple shapes (animals, plants, etc.) that I’ll provide. With the help of examples—and my guidance, of course—you’ll practise alongside other watercolour enthusiasts, supporting and learning from one another. Feel free to bring ideas and questions about things you'd like to paint :) **No previous experience needed**—just curiosity and a willingness to explore. ### **Mondays 13 - 20 April** from 6:00 to 7:30 PM **In Friedrichshain**, Berlin (exact address by e-mail) Join us for one or both classes, as you prefer. They are independent but complementary. **Price:** * 27€ x class / 50€ x 2 classes Payment via PayPal / Bank transfer **Material:** Material for watercolours is very specific. If you use poor-quality or non-professional material, you won't achieve the optimal results. Please check this helpful guide: [https://www.instagram.com/p/CKWdOx6FczD/](https://www.instagram.com/p/CKWdOx6FczD/) * I recommend bringing your own material so you can keep practising at home after the classes. If you don't want to buy it, I can also lend it to you for a small extra fee of 5€. Please let me know in advance. ### **Booking by email only:** Email: **hola.berlinartclub@gmail.com** You’ll receive payment details and the exact address upon confirmation. 🎟️ **Spaces are limited—join us!** RSVP here does not save you a spot. www.lujancordaro.com [@lujancordaro](www.instagram.com/lujancordaro) [@berlin.art.club](www.instagram.com/berlin.art.club)

*Once a month, the ‘Film ab!’ film forum takes place in our Mediothek. As part of this event, we screen works by Berlin-based film students and filmmakers who explore various socio-political issues through a range of audiovisual formats. Following the screening, language students at the Goethe-Institut, as well as interested external guests, have the opportunity to talk to the filmmakers themselves, ask questions and engage in discussion.* In the sixth event of our series “Film ab!” at Goethe-Institut Berlin, we will focus on the short film *She Was* (2024) by Abril Andrea Arnauda Appel. Following the screening, the audience will have the wonderful opportunity to engage in a discussion with the director. The short film is multilingual with English subtitles, and the discussion will be held in English. **Content Warning:** This film addresses themes of sexual violence. No explicit depictions are shown. **SPECS** Title: *She Was* Production year: 2024 Country: Germany Duration: 19 minutes Language: English, Spanish, German Subtitles: English **Synopsis** Kathrin (Katty), a 25-year-old migrant singer and composer, lives in Berlin, Germany, but is experiencing immigration grief and struggling with depression, which leaves her lacking inspiration. One day, her body is found in a lake, and everything points to suicide. However, as we delve deeper, we discover that Katty had been gradually adapting: seeking professional help, leaning on her family, building new friendships, and opening herself up to new opportunities. What is initially classified as suicide takes on a completely different dimension upon closer inspection. The short film references the fate of Mexican woman María Fernanda Sánchez Castañeda, who disappeared and died in Berlin in 2023. Two theories surrounding her death sparked debate in both Mexico and Germany – suicide, according to the authorities, and homicide, as claimed by her loved ones. The director aims to present both perspectives, while giving particular attention to the version that is often dismissed due to a lack of evidence or resources. Moreover, she seeks to remind us of the many cases of missing or murdered women worldwide and to offer a sense of peaceful closure to María Fernanda and her family. “I invite the audience to question their perspectives, form their own opinions, and reflect on the importance of giving a voice to those who can no longer tell their own story.” – Abril Andrea Arnauda Appel **Abril Andrea Arnauda Appel** Abril Andrea Arnauda Appel is a Mexican filmmaker who holds a degree in Communications and Digital Media from TEC de Monterrey. In addition, she specialized in directing and producing at Vancouver Film School and holds a Master’s degree in Directing from MetFilm School Berlin. Her studies took her abroad to France, the USA, Belgium, and Canada. She has worked as an Assistant Director in Vancouver and Mexico on both film and corporate productions, and has also shared her passion for filmmaking with young animation students as a film instructor at her former university in Mexico. Abril is a fiction director working across short films, music videos, and advertising, and has experience in multiple areas of filmmaking, including writing, production, and editing. Her work is strongly influenced by her passion for the performing arts, such as dance, singing, and acting. Her recent films explore the themes of trauma, mental health and emotional resilience.

The course will start this Saturday at 10am. It will be in studio R at CCB studios. [https://maps.app.goo.gl/rFovxE7eG7HV6uB46](https://maps.app.goo.gl/rFovxE7eG7HV6uB46). Buzz for CCB studios and then walk through to the second courtyard. We will try to start right around 10. There will be tea available. Please dress in comfortable clothes, maybe wearing a few layers. Theres some blankets, yoga mats, cushions and chairs in the room that you can use. The plan will be for us to do some small discussions at the top and then start discussing theory before doing some meditations of increasing length and then closing with some time for Q & A. We will take a short break in the middle as well. The plan is to go from 10-12 roughly but we may end a little closer to 11:30 depending. This week will function primarily as a simple introduction to meditation and some topics in the space but we will also discuss what the Jhanas are. Looking forward! Any questions please just message me.

Merhabalar, **26 Nisan Pazar 15:00**'da buluşuyoruz. Mekan [März Bar](https://www.maerzberlin.de/). İçeride rahat berjer koltukların olduğu bir oda var, girince solda. **[Schönhauser Allee ringbahn](https://maps.app.goo.gl/oWVqcXtfZM5q69yN9)** durağına yakın, Stargarder üzerinde. Ulaşımın Ring Bahn (S41 ya da S42) ile kolay olacağını düşünüyorum. Her zamanki etkinlik formatı ve tanıtımı aşağıda: **Önemli Not**: Mekanda sınırlı sayıda koltuk olduğu için genelde 8-9 kişi ile sınırlıyoruz etkinliği. **Eğer gelemeyeceksiniz en azından bir gün önceden meetup'taki etkinlik sayfasında etkinlikten kendinizi çıkartmayı unutmayın**. Böylece Pazar günü gelebilecek kişiler kendilerini ekleyebilirler Açık kitap kulubü formatında buluşacağız, detaylar aşağıda, görüşmek üzere! * **Kitap kulübü "açık" formatta. Yani** **belirli bir kitap üzerinden değil**, katılımcıların o sıralarda okudukları ya da bitirdiği bir kitap üzerine paylaşımda bulundukları daha geniş katılımı mümkün kılan bir format. * Kulübü **kurmaca kitaplar kategorisi ile sınırlı tutuyoruz**. **Kurmaca kitaplar kategorisi şunlardan ibarettir: roman, öykü ve şiir. Yani edebi eserler**. Otobiyografi, kişisel gelişim kitapları ya da sosyoloji, psikoloji vs. kitapları kurmaca değildir. * **Kulüpteki Türkçe vurgusu konuşma dili için**. Kitaplar elbette herhangi bir dünya edebiyatına ait olabilir. Herhangi bir dilde de okunabilir. Yine de misafirlerin ana dili ya da ona yakın seviyede Türkçe bildiğini, ortak paydasının Türkçe edebiyat okuru olmak olduğunu varsayıyorum. Herhangi bir ulusa ya da etnisiteye ait olmak değil.

Join us for a fun Dinner & a Movie event as we get together to see MICHAEL + Dinner at CAP City!

Here are details, a trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: This biographical musical drama follows the life of Michael Jackson, from his time with the Jackson 5 to his early solo career! Highlighting both his life off-stage and some of the most iconic performances from his early solo career, the film gives audiences a front-row seat to Michael Jackson as never before. Jaafar Jackson (Michael Jackson’s nephew) stars in the title role alongside Nia Long, Laura Harrier, Juliano Krue Valdi, Miles Teller and Colman Domingo. TRAILER: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mbtgEE6rkxw](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mbtgEE6rkxw) MOVIE PLAN: Please purchase your ticket for the 3:35pm showing and meet inside the theater lobby between 3:10 and 3:20pm.

Join us as we get together for a Discount Tuesday / Choose Your Movie event to see your choice of two great new films! Option 1 (and the one I'll be seeing) is the top-reviewed comedy-drama, THE CHRISTOPHERS! The film is set in the art world and follows the estranged children of a former artist who hire a forger. It is directed by Steven Soderberg, stars Ian McKellen and Michaela Coel and has been earning rave reviews on the indie circuit. Option 2 is the latest action-thriller starring Bob Odenkirk, NORMAL! The film follows a temporary small-town sheriff who uncovers dark mysteries after a local bank robbery. Here are descriptions, trailers and our plan for this event: THE CHRISTOPHERS: The children of a once famous artist hire a forger to complete some unfinished, long ago abandoned canvases so they'll have a better inheritance when he dies. It is directed by Steven Soderbergh and stars Ian McKellen, Michaela Coel, Jessica Gunning and James Corden. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film is earning an excellent 97% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes where critics call it a “dynamic, emotional and surprising journey” and a “compelling chamber piece that works like intellectual comfort food.” Others call the film, an “incredibly funny, comedy drama with plot reversals that make it feel like it’s on the verge of a thriller!” TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H79-EqzmdwY&t=20s NORMAL: This action-crime-thriller follows a man who comes to the sleepy town of Normal, Minnesota to serve as the temporary sheriff. But a bank robbery leads him to a criminal underground reaches throughout the entire town. The film is directed by Ben Wheatley and stars Bob Odenkirk, Henry Winkler and Lena Headey. The film comes from the same team that brought us Nobody and the John Wick series, so expect an over-the-top, action-filled thrill ride! TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rmm-lM33Qw0&t=19s PLAN: Details for this event have been confirmed!

"The SOB is a ballet dancer. He’s the best ballet dancer that ever lived, and if I get a good chance I’ll kill him with my bare hands." - W.C. Fields In *City Lights*, Chaplin's Little Tramp meets a blind girl selling flowers who mistakes him for a wealthy man. When he learns that an operation may restore her sight, he sets off to earn the money she needs to have the surgery. He also befriends an alcoholic millionaire who only recognizes him when he is drunk. When the blind girl and her grandmother fall behind in the rent and face eviction, he tries working and even enters a boxing competition to raise the money they need. Regarded as Chaplin's masterpiece, *City Lights* has been ranked on more than seventeen "100 greatest movies of all time" lists. Orson Welles cited it as his favorite picture. *City Lights* is available for streaming on Amazon Prime, Hulu, HBOMax, Tubi and PlutoTV. The Columbus Library lists three copies on blu-ray and eight copies on DVD. Watch the movie on your own, then join us upstairs at East Market to discuss the film. If you want more, *Unknown Chaplin* is a three-episode lost-footage documentary available on Youtube. It covers his time on *City Lights* beginning at the twenty-six minute mark of episode two: https://youtu.be/f8960Uc15hI?t=1558
