RE: Reflection - The Artist @tezzmax
We got in touch a long time ago - with the intention of organising an exhibition in Germany. We didn't manage it! Corona came in between, where art was devalued as dispensable anyway... And then people had less and less money in their pockets - of course, people cut back on art and culture.
You're right: the paintings are very special and deserve much more appreciation!
I am not sure but I believe long before the lockdowns artist were out of sight at least I noticed that in the Netherlands. Of course, there were still festivals and Musea but the interest was rarely there and schools don't visit musea any longer.
The fact many no longer visit the cinema says enough. Also, DVDs are hardly bought, streaming is easier even Netflix is on its return.
If I look around me most people have hardly to eat, let alone spend on a day out (theatre at least 70 euros which is called cheap not to forget to mention the costs for travelling.
Still, online it must be possible to do something or at least give it a try.
Thanks for stopping by and leaving a valuable comment.
