B’INI SUNSET SALUTE
Extended Sunset at Hamburger Bahnhof for Berlin Art Week
13 September 2025
Hamburger Bahnhof, backyard
Performance at 8pm sharp
RSVP - link in bio
On 13 September at Hamburger Bahnhof, for Berlin Art Week Hani Hape presents B’INI for the first time — a revolving stage, a carousel bathed in the hues of an extended sunset. Hape’s work stems from a single, unconsummated moment in Harry’s Bar, Venice — a Bellini shared with a yet-unrealized desire. That encounter, left unresolved, becomes here an act of magical thinking: the feeling abstracted, amplified, and staged to excess, until desire itself turns into a totalized, experience. Anthropomorphic waiters in leather aprons — half human, half design — serve to whoever enters. It is a scene of obsession, looping endlessly tender around its absent object. Echoes of the Jet Set’s golden age resound — glamour at the end of time, where consumption becomes ritual and decay seductive. In B’INI, longing is totalized into form: a luminous fiction in which the unavailable is fetishized — love’s imaginary elevated into a circular world that never stops turning.
