Mirjam Spoolder, Andrea Samborski

Mirjam Spoolder is a performance artist, haute-couture dressmaker, sculptor and fine art artist. Her work combines elements of theatre, art and high fashion to create unique sculptural clothing and mixed medium artworks. Her collages draw on images from fashion magazines, first broken down into component parts and then reassembled in a new form. Her exhibition Fashionable Art at Centrepoint kicks off on September 17th with a fashion show at 19:30 and will run until January 2014.

Andrea Samborski came into the studio to talk about the upcoming season at Parterre, one of the coziest and loveliest venues not only in Basel, but anywhere! And it's going to be a topnotch season with an excellent line-up of musicians - Three Blind Wolves (SCO) and To Kill A King (UK), Anna von Hausswolff (SWE) and Julia Kent (CAN), to name just a few. Parterre will also be hosting Tuesday Night Song Sessions and Music Movie Nights. Listen here to Andrea, Kiwi and Anna chatting about all of this - and more.

And of course we had all of our usual features - Over The Borders, News, Culture Calendar, Sports, and lots and lots of music.
