Does The Flash Hurt A Babies' Eyes?

Kunstmuseum Luzern: Peter Fischer illuminates the back and forward and speaks up to

On 26 February 2010, the Kunstmuseum Luzern's current exhibition "reference and bias" by Peter Fischer, director of the house opened. Also, the doors opened for the Project Space Art education (from which we will report in the next few weeks often).

who now expects the usual speeches will probably be somewhat disappointed. Who a "high-threshold" Introduction to the work on show is expected, probably a bit disappointed. Those who look back over the last 10 years the art museum, expects. And a preview?

again. Who a speech, an introduction to who, who is expecting a review or preview it serves. But not only. Peter Fischer is the first time publicly, in my view very clear personal and connects his person with the museum. Where, even his critics. For 9 years he has shaped (and his team), the face of the museum. The good cheer he so also with resistance, should be clear. But "he does not care," he was initially "proud of his work."

Now it is go off again. He has overestimated himself, has arrived at the end of the road (in Lucerne). I already hear the voices of all places. But that's not my opinion. On the contrary. Who stands out and really says what he thinks, even by themselves, deserve my respect. In Switzerland, such people are not bullied rarely makes for rewarding executed. Care. No one is forced to go along his way. But each is required. Active support is required. Who wants to change is to provide power. Should get involved and do not keep their distance. I'm concerned, he should break down the (museum) walls. But not to hide behind any "dignitaries" and the famous "Yes but" throw in the room.

Peter Fischer goes on. He also looks at other famous Swiss art houses, and announces his opinion. This coupled with his concern, his vision for the future. That this is wrong, of course, I know ... .. Sacred halls must be maintained. Finally, in these cultural heritage stored (and often hidden). For the protection of whom actually? (Persön. note).

people, it is worthwhile to listen to the words at ease (even if it resonates something in the podcast). If this resonates, a big step has been made.

And again I feel one of my companion for life through my head: "Do what you can not leave, but do it"
In this context I would not me an acceptance but active future cooperation .

Bare Anything On Women

report from our old flat - a personal podcast

Bewohner werden entwurzelt

Until yesterday, Sunday, we did not know yet where we from 1 April 2010 will be live. All possible scenarios are shooting us through your head every day for months. My wife has been in countless advertisements appeared in newspapers and web portals, written or phoned. Hours she has burned up, until finally came the relieving call on a sunny Sunday evening.

some as we sit here now, a big change after more than 23 years before us. One reason, a podcast of the very personal nature to make. A day after that.

Sayings For Keepsakes

Visarte Switzerland: Dominik Riedo - Art - Culture - Province - a forward line (Podcast)

Visarte Schweiz - Dominik Riedo berichtet aus der Provinz

On 20 November 2009 organized by the Visarte Switzerland in Bern a conference on "Art in the province . Various artists and curators presented projects that fit apparently in this context. Basically, it can be said that there is not the proper province, since the main emphasis on the "team" depends on what is going on.
entered as the first speaker of the place of Henry garden gate and the Predecessor Denis Beuret as Minister of Culture Switzerland, Dominik Riedo, to the lectern.
He stressed that his words are to form an introduction to the topic, but a forward line, in several steps. During the presentation I was aware once again how a term is merely a vessel. Riedo has filled this complex. Whether it is still half full or half empty, I leave to the listeners. In any event, intended to add additional items to be performed.
