Klavierstrasse Carlos Sandoval — Carlos Sandoval Tauben Platz, Wrangelkiez, Berlin, Germany

Klavierstrasse

Whole summer interactive open-air sound-sculpture. Commission: Kiezanker 36 and Berliner klavier.

Neither Klavierstrasse nor Taubenplatz exists in Berlin. This corner is a utopian place where anything and everything can happen. It is a place where the sole presence of a piano is able to transform the street into the private space or to bring together a homeless person who plays the piano and a child who loves music. Klavierstrasse is an installation, a sculpture, a mirror, a corner of time.

Klavierstrasse Carlos Sandoval 2 — Carlos Sandoval

Klavierstrasse Carlos Sandoval 3 — Carlos Sandoval



WHO IS MAIKOL JASHKON? Gabriel Grestel (known in his our Barrio as 'Maikol Jasckon') became the Lingua Franca, the Locus Classicus of Klavierstrasse. Gabriel always showed a great deal of respect for the piano, whenever he played it, donated a coin. He always wanted to help and never disrespected anyone. We know that Maikol was a nuisance to many. Well, we made this video to temper this Nuisance. His aesthetics, like a good Romanian, arouses unleashed passions (Thanks to Daniela Berenika for asking the questions to Maikol)
