Sadia Sadia as director, editor as well as producer will present a two channel video installation and premiere her recent 30-channel sound project. Los Angeles based artist Piper Mavis will present two new video works.

The show will be opened at 4 pm with the presentation of the art calendar 2015 “New York – Leipzig” by Doris Apell-Kölmel from “Zweitausendeins” publishers.
