Stubnitz presenting exciting programm in London
The "Stubnitz" has sailed into a mooring at Wood Wharf, the waterfront area earmarked for future development immediately east of Canary Wharf in Central London. It will be in place until May 16, 2013 to host an exceptional spring programme of arts and events: from contemporary circus and trapeze workshops to acoustic Egyptian Oud music and the amusing intricacies of the Cabaret of Mechanical Theatre. At previous locations she has played host to some of the biggest names in art and music - including Ramstein, Grandmaster Flash and Laurel Aitken, bringing decades of northern European counter-culture to some 570,000 visitors. Her crew of 15 artists and engineers is captained by founder Urs ‘Blo’ Blaser, and will bring a host of exciting events to Wood Wharf before sailing on to Dunkirk for the next leg of its journey. The Canary Wharf Group stated, the "Stubnitz" was the flagship for a great array of cultural arts and events at Wood Wharf in the coming year. They are very pleased to welcome the "Stubnitz" as it brings something completely different to Wood Wharf, showing that this place attracts the best cultural minds, as well as commercial ones. It gives a nice hint of the future use of Wood Wharf, which will have world-class technology, arts and cultural experiences embedded into the development from the very start. Aste Amundsen from the MS Stubnitz said they wree delighted to present a short but action packed season of arts and events at Wood Wharf this spring. This new mooring is also very central and easily accessible by public transport. Events will include the high quality, eclectic music programming the ship is famed for as well as circus, kinetic arts, maker workshops and much besides. Wood Wharf is a 20 acre waterfront site immediately east of Canary Wharf, set for future mixed-use development by Canary Wharf Group.
