Ich habe die Presseführung gestern mitgemacht.

Sehr Coronabedingt, schön leer.

Na ja, viele Aussteller haben noch die Kunstwerke installiert.

es wurde gehämmert und gebohrt.

Durchblick in die aktuelle Kunstwelt?

Baquetteplantage. JA! Zwei Künstler haben sich an das

französische Brot spezialisiert.

"Weißbrot vs. Baguette" von Volker Kiehn und Sebastian Herzau

Kunst.

Frauen sind schon ein beliebtes Motiv, auch in der heutigen Kunstwelt.

Am liebsten nackt, natürlich.

Bei Männerskulpturen spielt der Körper eine kleinere Rolle.

Thema des Coronajahres: die Maske.

Ja, ausser Skulpturen gibt es Gemälde.

Videoinstallationen habe ich keine entdeckt.

Nur Spiegelspiel.

Wieder eine Männerpose.

Holz.

Metall.

Die Gänge sind ziemlich breit, Platz genug für Besucher.

29.10.-1.11.2020 Messehalle 1.2. in Frankfurt.

Taking place annually, our art fairs in Cologne and Frankfurt have 

confirmed their position as the Discovery Art Fairs for contemporary art. 

With the objective to present young, fresh art, our fairs aim to excite new 

target groups for contemporary art by transcending the elitist art fairs 

and their speculative, often exclusive, pricing policies. 

We encourage everybody to buy and appreciate art. 

With a distinct focus on contemporary

 art production, the Discovery Art Fairs provide a direct insight into new 

trends and new positions of the art world, frequently introducing 

new faces to the visitors.

Ohne Stiefel aber mit offenen Maul.

Tartaruga mit Pep-Flasche.

Über Geschmack kann man nicht streiten.

Nicht uninteressante Fotoarbeiten.

Green, green, greener

°

Love this. Love Kermit the Frog, too.

Anyways, we should just forget this turning the clocks thing.

Absolutely rubbish. Hopefully EU will decide soon.

Grünkohl.

Looks grayish when you collect it.

But hey, boil it for a couple of minutes and ...

... dump it into icewater: becomes green as hell!

It's called blanching. You should do it if you want to freeze garden stuff.

Blanching is a cooking process in which a food, usually a vegetable or fruit, 

is scalded in boiling water, removed after a brief, timed interval, and finally 

plunged into iced water or placed under cold running water (shocking or 

refreshing to halt the cooking process. 

Die meisten Gemüsesorten werden vor dem Tiefgefrieren blanchiert. 

Neben den bereits oben erwähnten Vorteilen bleiben dadurch Geschmack, 

Vitamingehalt und die natürliche Farbe (besonders grün) besser erhalten.(Wiki)

Yes, Oderazzi "cooking".

😂

 

Artsy nature

°

Nothing much going on during Corona. Kind of.

Delivery!

New palm tree is being delivered, all good ... tight corners managed

professionally, digging the hole very fast ... WOW.

Professionals remove the pot before the final transport.

And there it stands, the "little" palm tree. Our pool palm.

So many stones left over from the planthole.

Hm, such a pity it is not marble or sandstone,

had been prefect for some artistic trials.

Well, the nature offers loads of material for some photo trials.

Check this praying grasshopper, mantis (lat.), which greeted us on the windshield.

It actually was blown away only when we turned to the main road.

Oderazzi is getting quite desperate as not learning proper Spanish.

And then, instead of doing some proper home work

she decorates a boring pole in the garden with Spanish verbs.

Proper? Lazy, indeed.

Check this: home made vegetarian pea soup (with mint) and kanelbulla!

Thanks to Portals Nous.

And check this "mano di Buddha" lemon.

Yes, a very special type of lemon, am lucky to see the 

first fruit develop this year. Takes months. 

Sorry, have to post every now and then.

"Die Zitronatzitrone Buddhas Hand 

(Citrus medica ‘Digitata’ oder Citrus medica var. sarcodactylis) ist eine 

Variante der Zitronatzitrone (Citrus medica) mit auffällig geformten Früchten, 

die an die Finger einer Hand erinnern. Gartenhistoriker vermuten, dass alle 

ursprünglichen Zitrusfrüchte aus Assam vom Fuße des Himalayas stammen."

Another novelty in the garden:Saffron!!!

Our friend gave us some bulbs, I planted them a month ago 

and finally at least two plants are coming up.

kuvakaappaus Wikipedia

Crocus sativus, commonly known as saffron crocus, or autumn crocus, 

is a species of flowering plant of the Crocus genus in the iris family Iridaceae. 

It is best known for producing the spice saffron from the filaments that grow

 inside the flower. (Wikipedia)

Finnisch für Anfänger:

SAHRAMI = Safran / saffron

Our Porto Cristo friends are becoming mushroom specialists.

So I delivered them a full collection from Dar Ahlam.

Some small, some big, some eatable, some poisonous.

As revenge my hubby got to taste home made llampuga disches.

He loved it. 

And I was totally happy with my cheese and chicken combo.

Remember my posting of 13. October? Llampuga!

Seen in a shop window. Winter is coming, also to Mallorca.

Such a cosy chair.

 

Wonderful wood

°

You have to like it. Working on wood.

In the beginning it, the piece of wood, was so heavy that I could not lift it.

And the dust got everywhere. When using the chainsaw.

Finnisch für Anfänger:

RAUTATAMMI = Steineiche / evergreen or holly oak

RAUTA = Eisen / iron

TAMMI = Eiche / oak

Thus some parts are really soft, you have to be careful.

Those light colored ones.

And then there are holes.

All the decisions you have to make.

How thin, how thick, how wide, how much whatever

and where you really have to stop.

And remember to give your arms some rest.

My new Black&Decker tool. Strip sander. 😀 Pretty happy with it.

Finally light enough to be lifted and turned and moved.

Detail. After oiling - yes, with olive oil.

With shadow.

Curvy.

Another detail. How beautiful wood can be.

And here she/he/it stands, in the courtyard.

Until the rains make her/him/it all gray and 

another location, maybe indoors, have to be found.

Preis nur auf Anfrage.
