Pictures from the Opening of “Bear with me” on Jan 28. in Freiburg
With my exhibition safely on the walls until March 18 and a very positive review in the local paper a few days ago (see my previous post), I finally find the time to share some images from the hanging and opening of the exhibition.
All of the images (except for the first three, which are mine) are copyrighted by Rudolf Fehrle.
- Fire and Ice, two images from the show (with a third one reflected in the forest fire image)
- Almost done, all pictures are on the wall and lighted, only the titles are still missing.
- The folks at Carl-Schurz-Haus put on some finishing touches.
- A Close Inspection by the youngest visitor.
- A visitor looking at one of the images.
- Visitors at the vernissage (my collague Michael)
- I answer some questions about bears.
- The director Friedericke Schulte introduces me and the exhibition. One can also see the excellent vegan buffet provided by Kraut & Rüben Catering.
- Visitors listening to the opening.
- Helmut, a polar and a spirit bear.
- Visitors at the vernissage
- Visitors and friends at the vernissage
- Visitors at the vernissage
- There was even a bear present at the opening.
- Talking to an old friend.
- Visitors at the vernissage (in this case my mother and a friend, who is also my former land lady)
Article about my exhibition in the Badische Zeitung
The Badische Zeitung, Freiburg’s newspaper, printed a very nice article about my current exhibition today (Feb. 10). You can read it online here – at least for a few days. I will upload a scan of the printed article as soon as I get it.
PS: I am not sure what they did to my image online, but it looks like a truly horrible HDR file (which it isn’t). You can find a version with a correct color space here, and, of course, see the bear the way it’s supposed to look like at the Carl-Schurz-Haus until March 18 :).
