We have been selected to be part of the first edition of the ‘Idealist’ book which features international upcoming artists. The theme for the book is ‘Kampfgeist’ (fighting spirit). Our work, which is titled ‘MEN’ consists of a series of video projections and photos which are made in 2D for the book but which are also created to be exhibited on their own in a gallery. We won’t reveal the details of our project yet…coming soon!
We have been invited to make the video installations for the ‘Idealist’ launch party, so all of those who are attending will be able to see a part of the project ‘MEN’ that is not featured in the book itself.
We are very pleased with the excellent care and quality put into the book and can’t wait to hold it in our hands.
If you would like to attend the party and we haven’t already invited you, send us your full name so that you can be included on the guest list.

Here are some words from the publisher and curator:

Dear Friends and Guests,
After two and a half years of development, the first issue of Idealist will be launched on May 7, 2011 at 7 p.m.
Fifteen extraordinary up- and-coming artists from eleven different nations present their works in the first printed gallery for contemporary art.
Kampfgeist, or fighting spirit, is not only the theme of the first issue of Idealist but also the motto of this evening in an exceptional venue.
Exclusively on this evening the numbered issues 100 through 200 of the limited circulation of 5,000 will be available for purchase. Each of these books is truly a unique original.
Entrance to the event is only granted to persons included on the guest list.
We are looking forward to sharing a fantastic launch party with you.

Share the dream!
