Berlin
Micky Schubert Gallery, Klosterfelde, Esther Schipper
15/01/10 - 19/03/10

Perhaps the only objection an art lover could have to Berlin is the way its galleries are scattered all over the city. The majority let photography and painting rule the gallery space this month. The choices appear safe, but luckily, safe doesn´t necessarily mean boring.
