ABOUT THIS EPISODE
A Berlin Special, as Chris and Rifa dive into that great city's arts and culture worlds, starting with major exhibitions: Cassirer And The Breakthrough Of Impressionism at the Old National Gallery, and Building Community: Göbeklitepe, Taş Tepeler and life 12,000 years ago at the James Simon Gallerie.
We also join the 48 Hour Neukolln open houses weekend, visit the KINDL gallery group show An Intimacy With Strangers and chat about food (mostly cakes) we've eaten.
I can't remember what books we picked.
Thanks for listening. We love you.
