Description
Former underclothes shop -, run as second off-space in Frankfurt. After the resolution of "Muttertag" Annette Gloser and Dirk Paschke startet their project "Gartners", a name taken from the shop front's neon sign, referring to a fomer underclothes shop. Parts of the custom made furniture of the shop had survived was used for a bar. The nature of "Gartners" never became quite clear: was it a bar, a club, a gallery or some sort of social community project? During the only two years of operation their were numerous of different kinds of events. I strongly remember a Post Office, a Texas Saloon and a Mini Golf course.
