Lund, Sweden – October 24, 2015
Hi
Welcome
– to shoot, a digital photo gift from Oberg Photographics – a moment of meditation with which I wish you a good weekend and “weekbegin.”
Event at the Franz Gertsch Museum outside Bern, Switzerland
This weekend I’m in Basel and Bern to say the word ‘peace’ and show a small series of my portrait and nature photos. It’s UN Day today and October 25 is International Artist Day.
On Sunday, the internationally renowned Play For Rights Orchestra, led by my friend Elías Abraham Foscolo, will play Brahm’s Clarinet Quintet. Before and after I’ll say those words while my photos are projected within this beautiful contemporary art museum. One of the exhibitions there is Gertsch’s and Andy Warhol’s portraits of Johanna, a woman in Vienna.
It’s is a great honour for to bring peace words and photos to this museum, with this orchestra. The whole thing will be filmed. The photo above is one of those that will accompany the peace and the music. Lecture on peacebuilding at 16. Concert at 17. More about it here.
A helping hand
The art world is huge, dynamic and difficult to keep up with and today’s catchword is sharing. Wouldn’t you like to have one single place that cost you nothing, with diverse stuff at your fingertips, exciting articles, photos, videos and books with almost daily updates?
Well, that’s what the new online “flipping” GlobalArt Magazine that I curate is all about. Try it, browse and follow.
Exhibition news
“Pictures At An Exhibition” is now shown at my studio together with the “Rouen Cathedral Suite # 1-10” inspired by Roy Lichtenstein’s 1969-series based on Claude Monet’s impressionist paintings is also on show. More on the idea and how it was executed on my art blog.
Personal service
Online art sales is growing fast but human communication is still number one. If you’d like to exhibit or acquire a piece on show at the moment or from my homepage, I’d be happy to answer any questions you may have.
Giving
The time when we think of giving gifts is rapidly approaching. Art photos in limited, signed edition could be your creative choice this year.
My best
