Idyll for You
“Idylle für dich” (Idyll for You) is the title of the next exhibition at RED CORRIDOR Gallery Fulda. An idyllic or idealised world has never existed. And yet it happens every day, anywhere in the world: an idyll – something supposedly perfect – caresses the soul. Even if it is only a wonderful thought, an idyllic illusion.
The artists of RED CORRIDOR Gallery try to get closer to the phenomenon of the “idyll”. The stylistic means are arbitrary; it is not only about a peaceful, happy, sheltered environment as such, but about the longing for it. In this disillusioned world, is there any room for the idyll at all, or is its opposite almost necessary for survival? Idyll (from the Greek eidyllion), meaning “little picture”, is an invitation to the fine arts to engage with this subject.
The opening is on 29 November 2008 at 6 pm at RED CORRIDOR Gallery, Löherstraße 19, Fulda. After lively conversations, which the gallerists and artists hope for, a concert with Markus Schmitt (vocals), Dagmar Wortberg (vocals) and Christoph Müller (piano) takes place at 8 pm | Admission €5. We look forward to your lively participation.
