Event: Martin Scorsese. The complete works
28 Aug 19:00 - 05 Oct 00:00
You probably already have seen a good portion of Martin Scorsese’s films (let’s not call them movies, could we?). From the dorm room poster classic Taxi Driver to the generation defining Mean Streets or his academy award winning The Departed, the majority of his films are basically part of film history.
But even in the time of home-cinema and blue-ray, you shouldn’t miss out on the opportunity to see his complete works during the next weeks at Filmmuseum.
This could be your chance of a lifetime to scream-along “Lawyer” with Robert de Niro in Cape Fear.

Mark Jenkins’ work is one of the best examples of art in the streets that goes beyond the flat surface of a wall, but his installations accomplish much more than that. What they are is truly a fine example of how art out there should make people react somehow to what they see and not just entertain a few colleagues in the internet or amuse another “street artists” or Street art fans.
Jenkins sees public space as a battleground on which advertisers and artists are all competing for visual space. His illegal street art installations, human casts made from packing tape placed in public spaces around Washington, are designed to awaken passers-by from the comfort of their daily activities.
