Bruessel European_Parliament 2012, originally uploaded by manfred schloesser.

In January we organized an exhibition named the "Blue Future" about Marine Science and Environment held at the European Parliamanent in Brussels. It is a huge building in which you can get easily lost. To get into that building is really complicated and kafkaesk. I did this sketch during a break in the cafeteria. Mostly young people from different European countries gathered there to have a coffee.

Bamberger Haus Bremen 2011

Julius Bamberger opened his Department Store in Bremen in December 1929. It was the first real big store with nine floors.
In 1937 he fled Germany. In 2007 the Bamberger Haus was renovated and the two missing top floors were added. A permanent exhibition reminds of Julius Bamberger´s life. The building is still a "must see" and is home for the Bremen Community College (Volkshochschule)
On 12 December 2011 I was there for a weekend course in creative writing and I did this sketch during my lunch break.

Ms Emmi and Herr Willnowski in Bad Bevensen

Ms Emmi and Herr Willnowski in Bad Bevensen, originally uploaded by manfred schloesser.

"Do you know where the Tanzcasino is?", a younger couple asked us, when we just left a restaurant in Bad Bevensen, a small town in the Lueneburg Heath (Lueneburger Heide). "No,sorry, we have no idea, but if there is a good show we would like to join you." And it was a good show by the two actors from Berlin, Ms Emmi and Herr Willnowski. Not what you would call politically correct, but real fun. Sorry, only in German: www.emmi-online.de/

Old pump Station in Bremen

Old pump Station in Bremen , originally uploaded by manfred schloesser.

The old pump station was the key to proper wastewater treatment. In the 19th century cholera haunted Europe and other places where many people lived. These pumps took care that wastewater and point where they took the drinking water were separate....

Now the pump station is a museum run by volunteers. Artists can perform on a theater stage with a perfect sound and light system. This sketch I did before the show of Alvaro Solar started.

Sunday evening in the Restaurant Theatro

Today we visited the Sunday Restaurant Theatro and had a cappucino. It is named after the Theater in Bremen and is located in the first floor.

The unusual excellent weather still suprises me. Sunday evenings sometimes feel strange to me as the weekend slowly fades away and my mind starts to think about the next days.
But today we celebrated the day with a huge waffle with cherries and cream on top.....delicious.

Sielwall Bremen 2011, originally uploaded by manfred schloesser.

Saturday, 12 November2011: Today seemed to be a perfect day for sketching, blue crisp sky but cold. For Bremen the typical weather in November is rainy and cold and dark, this can make you depressive. This year November and October were unusually dry and warm.
I was sitting with an espresso in the coffee bar just on the famous Sielwall intersection. The coffee grinder was grinding for 20 minutes making a sound as if a cat was inside. The music coming from the loudspeakers gave the background drums and two girls were happily chatting some details of their life as I tried to do this sketch.

The final destination of our sailing trip from Stockholm was Helsinki. The weather was subtropical and we found this Kiosk in the old Art Deco district. The bartender Wesq told me that this Kiosk was bulit in the 1950s and is the only one with a beer licence. And he is proud of it. He told me also Helsinki ranks on position 19 of the most expensive places of the planet.

Beach people in Prora, Ruegen

Prora on Ruegen, Germany largest island, offers fantastic beaches and much more. The visitors will have to pass the ruins of the Prora buildings which were planned in 1933 in Germany as a part of Hitler´s KdF program. With a capacity for 20000 people they were never completed and still stretch out for 4.5 kilometers.
We were stunned by the monstrous architecture.

Beach people in Binz, Ruegen island

The baltic sea resort Binz is located on the southeastern part of Ruegen. First mentioned in the 14th century as a fishermen´s village it is nowadays the largest beach resort. In the 1980s the beach was frequented by nudists. Now manners have changed a lot.

We were on a sailing trip around Ruegen and visited many interesting places on this island.
I sketched the people as they were passing by. In the background the white cliffs of Ruegen are visible.

My recommendation for reading:
In the beginning of the 20th century the New Zealand born writer Elizabeth von Arnim wrote her famous book " The Adventures of Elizabeth in Rugen". first published in 1904 by Macmillan. 216.74.34.10/book/show/1395206.The_Adventures_of_Elizabet...

Southern Lighthouse, Hiddensee 2010

The Suederleuchtturm in the southern part of the island Hiddensee was built in 1905 to help navigators coming from Stralsund to find their way. Three differently colored sectors in green, white and red give guidance. In the beginning of the 20th Century the famous writer Gerhart Hauptmann and many other artists were attracted to this part of the world.
We were there for two nights on our sailing boat trip around Rugen. No cars, only bicycles allowed. Just wonderful.

I did this sketch from the top level of the Beluga shipping tower located on the Weser island. The bar offers a fantastic view. I think the prices in the restaurant "Outer Roads" are only for people with a huge banking account and booking has to be three weeks in advance.

Nagelritz - a true sailor

2010-05-28T22:21:00.001+02:00

Nagelritz - a true sailor, originally uploaded by manfred schloesser.

Wieso Kühe so entspannt sind.
Ein Besuch bei Nagelritz in der Bremer Speicherbühne klärt endlich diese Frage.

Bremen, im Mai Sonntag abends um kurz vor sieben. Über 100 Besucher stehen geduldig Schlange am Eingang zur Speicherbühne im Speicher XI im Bremer Holzhafen. Nagelritz zeigt sein neues Programm „Landgang - mit Vieh, Gesang und Vollrausch".
Mal sehen, das hört sich ganz gut an. Wir sind das erste Mal hier und setzen uns mutig in die erste Reihe. Auf der Bühne stehen ein paar Flaschen Malteser, ein Seesack, eine Ukulele, ein Hocker und ein Klavier. Das Licht geht aus, kleiner Applaus, und auf der Bühne erscheint ein Matrose mit Tätowierungen, Matrosenmütze mit passendem Hemd dazu. Nagelritz schaut in die Runde und begrüßt die Gäste in bestem Matrosenschnack. Mit einem Seitenblick auf das Klavier: „ Eigentlich hatte ich ein richtiges Schifferklavier bei den Veranstaltern bestellt, aber was kann man von so Landratten schon erwarten.“
Und dann fängt er an zu erzählen, dass einem schwindelig wird. „Zuerst mal ein paar Fakten über echte Seemannschaft: Probleme auf See sind nix gegen Probleme an Land. An Land weiß ich nie, was mich erwartet!“, sagt er. Und so fängt die Geschichte an: Sein bester Kumpel Hinnerk ging an Land verschütt. In Rotterdam war das. Und Nagelritz will ihn suchen, versackt in einer Kneipe, verpasst das Schiff, will in seine Heimatstadt nach Gelsenkirchen trampen, wird in einem Fischmehllastkraftwagen mitgenommen, dessen Fahrer aussieht wie ein Wels und der behauptet, die Welt bestünde aus Fischmehl. Nach Gelsenkirchen schaffen sie es natürlich nicht. In einem Dorf gewinnt Nagelritz bei einer Lotterie eine Kuh, die tanzen kann und ihn in das Geheimnis der ultimativen Entspannung einweiht. Kuh und Nagelritz werden die absoluten Showstars, dieser Ruhm steigt der Kuh zu Kopf und sie lässt sich später von einem Talentscout abwerben. Nagelritz zeigt bei diesen abstrusen Geschichten bestes Erzähltalent. Der Alleinunterhalter zeigt sein Können auch bei den Telefonaten mit seinem spanischen Kumpel Raoul aus Andalucia, der jetzt mit Frau und Kind nahe Hamburg lebt und den er in ausweglosen Situationen anruft. Raoul hat einen Anrufbeantworter mit Flamencomusik und flammender Ansprache bestückt und Raoul als echter Spanier spricht ein rollendes R. Diese Telefonate enden immer im Fiasko und Nagelritz bekommt nie die Antwort auf seine Fragen.
In zwei Stunden Kabarett, Klaviermusik und Gesang nimmt Nagelritz seine Gäste mit auf die einzelnen Stationen dieser Odyssee, die ihn auch auf ein deutsches Forschungsschiff zu einer verführerischen Ozeanographin führt (60-90-60, das passt zu meinen 70-70-70!). Dirk Langer alias Nagelritz trifft mit seinem neuem Programm genau den richtigen Ton. Man kann nicht anders, es wird einem so schwummerig beim Zuhören, man muss ihm dieses Seemannsgarn abkaufen. Und richtig, diese Geschichten sind nicht bloß so ausgedacht. Auf direkte Nachfrage gibt Dirk Langer nach der Vorstellung zu: er kommt aus Gelsenkirchen und ist zur See gefahren. Mit Äquatortaufe! Der Wahlbremer hat in den letzten Jahren mit seinen verschiedenen Programmen schon mehrere Auszeichnungen gewonnen. Eines noch zum Schluss: Um dem zukünftigen Besucher nicht dieses schöne Aha-Erlebnis zu nehmen, darf das Geheimnis der ultimativen Kuh-Entspannung an dieser Stelle nicht verraten werden.

Manfred Schlösser

Sehenswert: Das neue Nagelritz-Programm „Landgang - mit Vieh, Gesang und Vollrausch" ist auf der Webseite www.nagelritz .de einzusehen. Nächste Auftritte in Norddeutschland sind am 28. und 29. Mai in Hamburg, 2. Juli in Bremerhaven und am 17. Juli in Husum.
