low side the basin, high side the range

mountains are not somehow created whole and subsequently worn away. they wear down as they come up, and these mountains have been rising and eroding in fairly even ratio for millions of years – rising and shedding sediment steadily through time, always the same, never the same, like row upon row of fountains.

(john mcphee, annals of the former world)

Shlaraffenland is German for … boogie-wonderland!

It’s that place where you can stay in bed all day long and watch DVDs, where lemon cheese cakes are packed in semi-translucent paper, where people drive bikes with big baskets full of kids, where the streets smell like fresh croissants between 7 and 9 am, where people just say what they always wanted to say, where coffee comes with a little chocolate,  where people still dress up for parties, where old ladies talk with a lot of gestures, where smoking is still accepted, where you can eat from the walls (but only on special occasions), where newspapers are crispy and heroic, where WiFi is gone (but then not maybe … donno), where people built boats on their roofs and pigeons bring messages, where the moments you’ve been waiting for all your life really happen … at least most of them.

Just google it, you might find it ..

acci-cocciオープン

オランダ留学時代に出会い、現地で一緒に暮らしたこともある友人、宮沢さおりさんが、昨年から家族と一緒に佐渡島に住んでいます。その彼女がベルギー人のパートナー、アルノ ムールマンと共にacci-cocciというスペースを1月16日にオープンしました。

もともと身体表現を専門とする彼女と、空間や映像を扱うアーティストである彼は、ブリュッセル→倉敷→佐渡島と移動しながら、様々なコラボレーションを 行ってきました。acci-cocciは、2人の実験の場であると同時に、あっちこっちを繋げて発信する面白い場所になりそうです。
そんなacci-cocciのオープンのお祝いに駆けつけたいところでしたが、残念ながら叶わないので、オープニングでベルギーワッフルを焼くというアルノに、かっぽう着を贈りました。なかなか様になっています!

できれば、2010年中に「かっぽう着展 in 佐渡」を叶えたいと思います。

ちなみに、ヨガの講師もつとめる友人はスペースの隣のオーシャンビュー(!)の部屋でヨガ教室をやっています。今年の佐渡行きの夢が叶ったら、そちらにも是非参加してみたいと思っています。
