Unbanned: The Legend of Air Jordan 1

Last weekend I had the pleasure of watching 'Unbanned: The Legend 
of AJ1', which explores the dynamic journey of the Air Jordan 1 from its 
unlikely beginnings to its role in disrupting long-established rules of the 
NBA, changing the game of basketball, birthing sneaker culture and 
influencing a social and cultural revolution.

This documentary is definitely worth a peek, featuring people like 
Michael Jordan, Peter Moore, Phil Knight, Tinker Hatfield, Spike Lee, 
Quincy Jones, Chuck D and many more..
Great work, Dexton Deboree and team!



I posted some more pictures of the screening event at Kino Central

Los Sures

Director Diego Echeverria has been working tirelessly trying to uncover and 
showcase the small, vibrant and wild side of south Williamsburg in his breakout
documentary "Los Sures." Filmed in 1984 on dingy 16mm film, the eye-opening
documentary exposes the small-knit and vivacious Puerto Rican and Dominican
neighborhood of south Williamsburg before the streets were clean, safe and 
crowded.
After being rediscovered in 2007, the film has been worked on extensively by 
the people at Union Docs, who have also launched a memory project entitled 
 "Living Los Sures," where individuals can come and share their stories, pictures 
and other tidbits they might have about the neighborhood.

I can't wait for this!

Pane Per Poveri @ No 74

  
No74 and Pane Per Poveri are inviting to an evening hosted by PPP 

in the frame of Berlin Art Week.

Realized in Venice, Lido, in May 2015 during the opening days of the 
56th Venice Biennale, Hanna Hildebrand and Matthew Antezzo captured 
the 72 hours of Pane Per Poveri, interviewed participating artists and 
 documented the artworks that were part of the project.

After the preview of “L’Uomo del Pane” during Istanbul Biennale, it 
will now premier at No74 on September the 18thwith two screenings 
starting at 6 and 8 pm.

directed by Hanna Hildebrand
produced by Matthew Antezzo
Age and Ham Productions

Pane Per Poveri is a temporary art project organized by a group of 
Berlin artists and curators who wish to experiment with different forms 
of contemporary art events. Considering that art can exist apart from 
rules and established structures, it is the ambition of the PPP project 
to foster this freedom and to create a place where not only the 
production of art, but also its presentation and perception can abide 
with the least restrictions possible.

The project was realized with the support of adidas.

Kreuzberg 1983

der frühen 80er Jahre in Berlin-Kreuzberg. Er portraitiert die verschiedenen Bevölkerungsgruppen 
in Kreuzberg, zeigt die Häuser in denen sie wohnen und macht einen Abstecher in die Geschichte 
des Stadtteils.
