For Hundertwasser-fans and -friends

For collectors of Hundertwasser, I have just added a new page about Germany
http://arthistory.heindorffhus.dk/fr...15-Germany.htm

and added a new item to the New Zealand-page
http://arthistory.heindorffhus.dk/fr...NewZealand.htm

Both are interesting testimonies of Hundertwasser's unmistakeable art ;-)
Personally I am not sure if I like what is shown on the New Zealand
postcard, but since a collector friend has been so kind to send it to me as
a present, I have found it absolutely relevant to present it on the page.
Enjoy ;-)

I am told that it has been listed for sale already on eBay.

Hello Mette,

Like you I am not a great "fan" of the kind of art showing "****otières"
(urinal basins) or WCs like on this postcard.

This reminds me of another "so-called" work of art by Marcel Duchamp :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fountain_(Duchamp)


I prefer by far the art of Marc Leguay as you beautifully displayed it
on your recent page :
http://arthistory.heindorffhus.dk/frame-Leguay01.htm

:-)

All the best,
Pierre Courtiade

Apparently, this link does not work very well.

Here is an image of this "fountain" :

Depends on your perspective, Pierre.
as a backpacker, the urinals I've had to hold my breath above,
this one looks so good, I could almost move in and pay rent.

Neither have I ever been in favour of Duchamp's art. For me it is simply
"too much".

Thank you, Pierre :-)

Yes, I see your point :-) I have been told that they are always kept
remarkblay clean, and that no syringes or similar stuff are left around.

Hello Mette,

Like you I am not a great "fan" of the kind of art showing "****otieres"
(urinal basins) or WCs like on this postcard.

This reminds me of another "so-called" work of art by Marcel Duchamp :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fountain_(Duchamp)

I've been told that somewhere in Europe there is a statue of a
boy urinating. Apparently a prince wandered away from the castle and
a massive search was undertaken. He was found urinating, and in
gratitude a statue was commissioned showing him in the situation in
which he was found.
Any truth to this?

Perhaps "Mannekin pis"

In Australia, go to any plant and garden centre,
and there is sure to be a fountain, along these lines.
