Break out the caviar and pop the champagne- this week Bad at Sports celebrates is 3rd anniversary with its 156th episode!

This week: Patrica hosts Brian, Christian Ehrentraut, and Martin Kobe for a conversation over blueberries, wine, and tea. They discuss the rise of Berlin as the new fashionable European art hot-spot, the Leipzig painter phenomenon, a German view of American cities, and and why it is important to promote quality painting in the face of the market. Christian Ehrentraut is a Berlin-based art dealer and director of Christian Ehrentraut Gallery. Martin Kobe is a painter whose architectural surfaces balance on the brink of collapse.

    Good job. Christian had perceptions of Berlin and the Leipziger Schule that are different than what most people are saying, and are close to what I feel in Berlin. Good luck to him in his non-trad gallery endeavours. Viel Glueck Christian. Ich werde dich besuchen, wenn ich wieder einmal nach Berlin gehe.

    By the way, Richard, his name is difficult — but it would be close to this (using English analogies): “Air-in-trout”. Martin’s is like “Co-bay”.
