January – silent glow
Happy New Year! And now? Silent glow: the snowman and me. We do our best. January doesn’t have a good reputation – too little light, too much stagnation. It’s like the big yawn after the party.The music is off. The glasses have been washed. Somewhere between tiredness and anticipation, we ask ourselves:And now? Yet every…

Art? All banana!
Art – The definition Is sticking a banana on the wall still art? Or: what actually makes Salvador Dali famous? And why does everyone love Mona Lisa? I am sure of it: that it takes courage, wit, timing and the right location to create an impressive work from a rotting banana – some works live…
