wayne gilbert / houston

wayne gilbert

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.

voodoo museum / new orleans


For 5 bucks you get into the small exhibition spaces of the new orleans voodoo museum. Hopefully voodoo helps against pneumoconiosis  as well, because the cleaner of the museum is indisposed since decades. It looks like a shabby german ghost train, except that us cents swell out of  the skulls. Voodoo is one of the huge religions and it`s not just about to maltreat dolls with needles. As in any other religion it´s about stoking fears and earn money.  ©n.g.
