This past weekend I visited the Museum of Contemporary Art Kiasma located in the heart of Helsinki. In the 5 floors the museum had to offer I was presented with some of the most interesting and invigorating art I have seen in quite some time. Kiasma definitely creates an open forum for the exchange of opinions and a continuous redefinition of art and culture. Best of all you can photograph to your hearts content!
Which reminds me of a great quote I read the other day by the Norwegian artist, Ida Ekblad: "I create art in order to get depressed, to misuse, to shame myself, to feel pain, to obtain financial problems, and for other scarcely desirous reason."

ReplyDeleteMichael,
ReplyDeleteMissed your call, was in the middle of a project at work. I thought it was you seeing that long strange number. Have been reading your Blog once a day, seeing what’s up with you. It seems you’re expanding that big German brain of yours. The traveling all over, seeing the peeps, museum hopping, party bashing, beer “tasting” good times make me realize, nothing has changed with the Kraut Dirty.
This experience will enlighten you further in all aspects of your life.
Keep vigilant to what can surround you but, embrace all good fortune that life brings.

God love those optimistic Norwegians! : )
