Modern tales: Between villains, dominance and pain

Modern tales: Between villains, dominance and pain

The BBK Kunsthaus currently shows the exhibition “Modern Fairy tales”, i.e. classic pieces of art newly interpreted by Friedhelm Kranz. The show is not fantasy but magical. The way Kranz displays his acts is extraordinary. Works and art forms of other artists are copied and manipulated. And maybe they are also, that’s my thought, newly interpreted. For that the works

Corona-Diary: mulled wine hiking at Riddagshausen

Corona-Diary: mulled wine hiking at Riddagshausen

I admit it: I can’t hardly cope with the grey and dark season. Almost every day it is dark, rainy and simply unfomfortable outside. Beside that due to the Corona-restrictions such as 2G, 3G or 5G – no, that’s UMTS – there is no festive cheer yet. That’s why I have to nestle. And last saturday the weather is being

Things of the heart at the Lokpark

Acutally the saying goes: “Summertime and the living is easy”. This summer however not only the Corona restrictions are giving me a hard time. Also the changeable wheather spoils my plans for the weekend. Once again the prospects for saturday are dull. At first there is less rainfall than predicted. That’s why we dare to visit the designer market “Herzensdinge”

Yakamoz: The reflectance of the moon in the water

Since mid of July 2021 the art gallery Geyso20 shows the exhibition Yakamoz in Braunschweig. There is also an additional programme. I visit the public guided tour on 15.8.2021 in order to learn more about the two artists, Murak Akat and Lena Schmidt-Tupou. From a rational point of view I am far away from being an adept.

Udo Lindenberg at Braunschweig

Udo Lindenberg at Braunschweig

To put it in a nutshell: The Udo Lindenberg exhibition in Braunschweig is fun! Udo’s pictures celebrate life, do not take it too seriously and bolster the spectator up to follow the lead. I can just say thank you to both, Udo Lindenberg for turning 75 recently and the Prüsse-Stiftung for dedicating this exhibition to Braunschweig on the occasion of

Corona diary: Where the giants live

The Corona-Pandemie still prevails and it is still lockdown. But I never tire of insisting on finding new hiking or bicycle touring destinations. This time I find my luck east of Königslutter, where the giants live, at Rieseberg (giant’s mountain). And there is not only a hill but also a moor and an adventure trail. The street king of Rieseberg
