THE BIGGER PICTURE
July 23rd, 2008Or: A stamp is not a movie theatre
I will only do this on rare occasions, I promise. But this time I think you’ll benefit from it: a post about what’s happening over at Independent Collectors. While our programmers fiddle with bugs (inside the computer, their kitchen is clean, I’ve seen it), we also create random video clips.
This time it’s me and in case you haven’t seen it yet (or were bothered by the tiny size), here is the big picture. They asked me to explain Independent Collectors as fast as possible. It took me 20 minutes to speak and our film maker (who joined me in Paris) a weekend to boil it down to 87 seconds. Fasten seatbelts, no time for popcorn:
Questions? And the next post is about art again. I swear.

Hello Dieter, thanks for asking! I hoped someone would do that.
The video has been shot at the Dorten Haus in Stuttgart within the exhibition D.O.A. - Dreaming of Africa by Robert Steng.
The first floor of the Dorten Haus in Stuttgart is used by the project “Hermes und der Pfau” as a project room for exhibitions of contemporary art. It is curated by Philipp Ziegler and Anne-Sofie Ruckhaberle, both from Galerie Reinhard Hauff in Stuttgart.
I hope I could answer your question. All the best!
