Old Peter Gabriel

Everybody is raving about Yayoi Kusama. I just digged out my old Peter Gabriel CD "Eve". Created in 1996, ages ago. But still one of the most beautiful multimedia games. Yahoi Kusama cooperated in a whole section: "Mud". 

The CD still works and I somehow can remember the clues.

Antoni Tàpies 


I just read that Antoni Tàpies has died yesterday. How very sad this is. I am always surprised how unknown he is even among art aficionados. There are two main contemporary art giants in Catalunia: Miro and Tàpies. 
I still remember when I bought "my Tàpies". I saw this work at the Cologne Art Fair and I really really wanted to take it home at once. Only problem: I only had 30 Marks with me, no credit card, no passport. Georg Nothelfer, the gallerist, understood. He took the piece from the wall and wrapped it. "You can pay later", he said when he gave it to me.

Belonging

All set up for the next exhibition at the Linkgallery. Madi, Lana and myself will meet this Friday and start measuring and hammering. 

Lana Al-Shami has her family roots in Iraq and Madi Acharya-Baskerville is of Asian origin and spent much of her childhood there. Coming from very different cultural origins, both artists explore themes of alienation and belongingin their work. 
Here in the Link Gallery Lana presents a series of her sculptures and prints exploring the notion of 'Identity' and Madi leads us through a photo documentation of the project ‘Sanctuary: home, away and common ground' which took place in Kenya last summer.
The show will run until end of March.
