ecology of Schiele

together with the musician martin siewert united sorry intensified one room of the leopold museum during the dance night october 2009. organized by tqw/brut in vienna. we made a song, and a little text, which we repeated several times during this hour.
Little song
Mothers are dying
Children upset
Fathers are flying
With young girls in bed
Forests are dying
The birds are upset
Critics are lying
Contemporary art is so bad
Little story
A little story, you fell in love with art, you bought some paintings, they became your children, you were proud to have them, and every time you saw them, you discovered something new, but you lived in a time where they started to treat you as dirt, you had to leave your children behind and you, you vanished into the smoke of the gas chambers, Treblinka, Auschwitz. And now your children are hanging in this building, being exposed to millions of people who come from all over the world to be touched by them. What can these paintings do. Their creator died, when he was young, some of the first buyers died, because they were born in the wrong time, in the wrong country, with the wrong physical features in their face. So, what can these paintings do? They are like grown-up orphans, old enough to live on their own, but they always feel their traumatized past; the brutal loss of their real parents.
