feeling appreciated: galeria nowhere @serbia

 

galeria nowhere in front of the townhall of sombor

We know that a small group of creative people can change the world.
In fact, they are the only ones so far, who have done it …
Credo of KleinHouse, our host in Subotica

After a series of spontaneous shows of the Galeria Nowhere travelling exhibition in a field and next to a cemetery in Croatia and in a squat in Slovenia, we arrived in Serbia with an exhibition program professionaly arranged by our friends Biljana and Srdjan (see previous post).
The only downside was that we had to get up at 6 a.m. for the show in Sombor, but the prestigeous location (permit thanks to Kulturni centar Laza Kostic Sombor) in front of the townhall more than made up for it. Upsides there were plenty; great audience (a lot of!), great spots, press, tv and more... plus a very rewarding feeling of being appreciated by people who invest themselves into alternativ arts and culture much the way we do. Actually we were made to feel much like the small creative group of people mentioned in KleinHouse's credo above.

Here are two links with more pictures of the exhibition in Subotica.

first meetings & a recipe for cake

We are very happy that our path crosses with Andrew & Caitlin Webb-Ellis. They can't be with us this year for the trip, but still they are the first Nomadic Village artists we meet, as they just have a short break from working at the Venice Biennale.

Andrew and Cailtin are UK based performers and film makers who live in their van „Mistress Enid Abbott“ full time. Spending time with them here in Valbruna is a great pleasure!

You can take a look at their work on their homepage: http://www.webb-ellis.org/ or on their fb-page: https://www.facebook.com/webbellisart/timeline

This occasion called for some pictures and some cake. The Captain pulled out his camera and Tina made our favorite chocolate cake (the main reason we had to get an oven).

If you feel like baking yourself ... here’s the recipe (amounts for 4 servings):

 

150g butter - 150g chocolate - 80g baking sugar - 30 g flour

3 eggs - whip foamy

melt butter and chocolate on boiling water

add sugar - add flour - mix eggs with rest

fill in forms - 200°C - app. 15 min. - tataa... the cake should be half baked with a liquid center!
