Magnus Reed on Freunde von Freunden
Just about two years ago, the photographer Magnus Reed moved from Brighton, an idyllic town by the seaside, to Berlin.

His story telling goes on forever and some might wonder how many lives he already lived. His passion for photography has taken Magnus to some of the remotest places on this planet, whereas his fashion photography brought him close to people like Anna Nicole Smith and Pamela Anderson, before they hit the limelight.

Things are because we see them, and what we see, and how we see it, depends on the arts that have influenced us.
To look at a thing is very different from seeing a thing. One does not see anything until one sees its beauty.

A must visit: NOPI is a brasserie with a twist. Serving dishes to share with robust, sunny flavours, typically from the Middle-east and Asia. NOPI is open all day, with breakfast, lunch, dinner and pre-theatre menus.
