24 Hours In Vienna

Rosie Flanagan — Fri, 24 Aug 2018 16:00:40 +0000

Recently named the most liveable city in the world, when wandering along Vienna’s wide boulevards and down its cobblestone side streets, it’s easy to see why. History here is tangible—from Mozart to Klimt, the Secessionists and beyond, the city is alive with culture created by some of history’s greatest minds.

VOL. XXIII By Haris Epaminonda

Rosie Flanagan — Thu, 03 May 2018 09:00:20 +0000

The most recent exhibition of Berlin-based, Cypriot artist Haris Epaminonda, ‘VOL. XXIII’, was an exploration of minimalism and conceptualism through a series of assemblages.

Shown at Vienna’s Secession, ‘VOL. XXIII’ was the most recent in a series of consecutively numbered “Volumes”. Shying away from explanation of the work, these titles suggest a linear order of events, an ambiguity that Epaminonda uses frequently to free her audience from a singular way of seeing. For ‘VOL. XXIII’, she transformed the gallery at Secession into a whitewashed space, luminous in its brightness. The objects within ‘VOL. XXIII’ share an aesthetic unity bound to geometry and defined by their minimal color palette. The placement of these objects has been meticulously devised, though the rationale behind their chosen positions is left open to interpretation. Whether it is the model horse standing beside the pool and Roman columns, or the golden bust of man, the exhibition is both a scene and a story. As mirrors reflect both the audience and the space, there is a sense of being somewhere else — immersed in the deep blue of the velvet curtain that hangs from the ceiling and then envelopes the room from all reflective angles.

A Hike In The Bavarian Alps

Hannover-based photographer Katharina Geber took a trip to the Karwendel Alps in Bavaria where she climbed up to the Soiernpitze peak, the highest mountain in the region. Previously, we featured her nostalgic photographs. This time, she captures images of misty mountains, dreamy sunsets and ethereal landscapes.

[9:00] We started our mountain hike with a side trip into the ravine, where the clear water there was incredible.

[13:00] Further up, the hill was covered in mist and clouds. It felt like being underwater.

[17:00] Drenched and cold, we arrived at the shelter and spent the evening warming up and trying to dry up as much as possible.

[22:00] The setting sun colored the sky pink and left the mountains in a lush red.

[8:00] A little tired, we started our hike to Soiernspitze peak the next morning. Luckily, the weather had changed and the sun joined us as we climbed.

[11:30] On the peak we took our time to rest and enjoy the view, while I took pictures of my loved ones. We were exhausted, but perfectly happy. I love the mountains, the rough stone, and the dense woods – they make everything else seem so trivial.
