Also accepting the invitation was Alexander Schudy from the Berliner Entwicklungspolitischen Ratschlag e.V., an ever strong partner and part of the shareholders of the Berlin Global Village gGmbH.

Exhibition: Art on Cardboard – From Waste to Portrait
Cardboard boxes that would normally end up in the trash are given a new purpose in this exhibition by Eduardo Lopez: each recycled canvas now carries a face, a gesture, a presence. The Mexican self-taught artist deliberately shows his work in community spaces to make it accessible to everyone. On view until April 30th at the Begegnungscafé at Berlin Global Village.
