Entertaining eyes and ears
In Munich the Oktoberfest is about to start and here are a few updates on events in Vienna:
FOTOGRAFIS EXHIBITION
“The exhibition FOTOGRAFIS collection reloaded at the Kunstforum in Vienna aims to update positions in the history of photography: stylistic strategies of pictorialism and Neue Sachlichkeit (New Objectivity) of yore will be placed side by side with recent works, which will augment the exhibition as loans. Alfred Stieglitz for instance enters into dialogue with Andreas Gursky, Albert Renger-Patzsch with Candida Höfer and James Welling.” According to my mum this is very much worthwhile having a look at.

SKY KITCHEN 11.09.08 *new location*
Rumor has it there is a new location in Vienna. It’s an old cantine on the 7th floor that is now turned into a hip place for hip people to party. Interesting detail: the location has an expiry date: 6 months max, then the building will be torn down. We like idea and the website and not to forget: tonight is the Grand Opening. Btw. that’s what the ORF has to say about the location… LINK

Und, in der Josephstadt hängen Romy Schneider Plakate, leider aus keinem aktuellen Anlass wie ich feststellen musste. Dafür gibts bald coole Romy Shirts, gell Mekka?
