Olivier Maarschalk, ‘Memories from the future’

During a lonely stay in Finland, Maarschalk asked his mother, girlfriend and roommate to pick a date and time in the future, on which they expected him and themselves to still be alive. For each person he made a drawing that shows the exact curve in which the sun enters his studio on that specific time. The drawings were sent to each participant by post.

Olivier Maarschalk is participating in WHAT’S THE POINT OF GIVING YOU ANY MORE ARTISTS? which opens coming Friday at eight.

It promises to be one hell of a show! Mark friday March 12th in your calendar!

and the moral of the story is…

Seen yesterday at Witte de With’s 24-hour film program ‘and the moral of the story is…’;

‘Wall Street’, by Oliver Stone

‘Enron, the smartest guys in the room’, by Alex Gibney

A combination that put both films in a different perspective. The documentary on the rise and fall of this American super-company was completely sickening..

More films at WdW today until midnight!


No love in an elevator

Watch the top right surveillance screen.

This is sped-up footage of mr. Nicholas White trapped in an elevator in the McGraw-Hill Building for 41 hours, after having a cigarette for lunch outside.

Don Justo’s Self Built Cathedral

Cathedral_of_Justo_Gallego

Do it yourself:  Justo Gallego Martínez is building his very own Cathedral in Mejorada del Campo near Madrid, Spain.

This is no “model” cathedral and he is neither a qualified architect, nor engineer, nor bricklayer — he is a farmer. “The plans have only ever existed in my head” and have evolved over time in response to opportunity and inspiration.
