hyder, usa

Posted on June 8, 2015 by admin | Posted in cities @en, usa @en

Hyder is located in america, shortly after the border to canada. One highlight of hyder is already mentioned in this sentence: canada. There is no american border control because here is definitly the end oft he world. You can´t go anywhere besides back to canada. Hyder is a still habituated gost town, somehow scacy to find new kids toys all over the place and even between the ruins. The other highlight of Hyder is somehow hidden on a nature surrendered backyard of a dilapidated house. One might think, an expedition from 1920 got stuck here in the jungle.
RIP normally means “rest in peace” but here it means: “Rust In Peace”

simona & mike / dallas

Posted on January 27, 2015 by admin | Posted in cities @en, others @en, people @en, usa @en

Our friend marc from mannheim recommended us to visit his best friend mike with his charming wife simona in dallas. Great. We were welcomed with open arms. They invited us to a sailing trip (yes, in dallas!), took us to their friends, we cooked together, had interesting discussions and lots of fun together.

So, marc from mannheim, stupid running, now we will argue about marc and simona from dallas, when they will be here in germany for a visit. :-) © n.g.

wayne gilbert / houston

Posted on January 19, 2015 by admin | Posted in cities @en, galleries @en, usa @en

Wayne Gilbert and his G Gallery was recommended by a guy at the Artfair “Untitled” in Miami Beach.

Thank you Wayne, for taken us to the station museum where the exhibition “degrees of separation” is being installed. The Opening of the exhibition will be held on Jan.17th and by the way: what we already had seen promises to be exciting! Wayne Gilbert has been searching many years for a truly original idea in his personal artistic expression until he finally found it in1998: He uses the remains of human beings after they were cremated in the pigments for his pictures. His work thus moves on the edge of life and death and it gives those people, whose remains he integrates into his art, a degree of immortality.

houston

Apollo 13 pilot Swigert reported by radio: “Okay, Houston, we’ve had a problem“. After 45 years this sentence is still known and it came to my mind, as we drove into the city. Also Houston received us with bad weather, the gallery owners and the artists embraced us warmly. What we had experienced here was beyound all expectations. I will post some encounters in my next contributions.
