Art 21 Koln 2009

I just got back into Berlin after a week long in Koln for the art fair. Marcus and I took the train in together 4 days early to install the tower/arrows installation. It took us a bit more than 40 hours with minimal breaks. Tired and sore, we got it done and then spent 5 days at the fair, yuking it up with the staff and other artists. Loads of Strychnin Gallery folks, Ansgar, Madeline, Daniel, Raf, Wee, Jan, Marina..the crew..Cookie, Graham, Iris..and of course the man who put us up for the week, Tobias.. A real life saver and all around awesome guy. The fair was, well as art fairs go, pretty fun. A lot of familiar faces at the booths and it was fantastic to hook up with old friends and make a ton of new ones. I always enjoy getting to see some new paintings and sculpture and what have you. A lot of fun and the Gallery did great! beer is good. food is meaty. The Dom is ominous and beautiful. I love Koln.
