Giovanni Frazzetto was born and grew up in Sicily. After high school he moved to London to study science and then lived in Germany and France. In 2008 he was awarded the John Kendrew Young Scientist Award for his efforts to promote interdisciplinarity across science, art and the humanities. His science and literary writings have appeared in Nature, EMBOreports and more recently in SAND- Berlins English Literary Journal. He now lives between London and Berlin where he is writing his first collection of stories entitled In between worlds.
Dada Post is an autonomous space for the production, display and discussion of current art. Foremost, we contemplate artistic expression from the standpoint of pure inspiration emanating from the source – the artist. Dada Post was founded in 2008 on the initiative of Howard McCalebb, a sculptor and active figure on the international art scene. It is located in the in the Berlin-Reinickendorf district, in the former König Smoked Fish Factory complex. The one hundred year-old business was transformed into exhibition, performance, and studio spaces for artists.
