From a memorial to a memorable Art Collection heintz mock is one of the founding artists of the internationally influential zero movement that was active back in the fiftys and sixtys where he became better known later with his light release and sculptures but his starting point was always painting now the eighty six year old artists work have been properly catalogued and they tell us about the different phases of his long career. An artist and his paintings. Through volumes of his catalogue. Hasnt seen in decades. Pictures from the one nine hundred fifty s. When he broke new ground. And. That it was a world in which there were a lot of questions but no answers. If you wanted answers you had to find them yourself.

I had to forget everything i had learned there and embark on a new beginning. It was practically an existential decision is that its hard for me to believe now but ive been one of the best students in life drawing at the academy i realised i had to put all that aside it was over and it all been done before it was time to start anew and really go back to the beginning the. Getting of the beginning striving for artistic renewal and a clean slate hines mark and his fellow artists named their group zero experimented with new forms materials textures and techniques.

To be free in germany and take a risk to have the courage to take a path that had never been taken before it was an unparalleled adventure. Minimalist black and white. Color and light. The sensuality of color is extraordinarily important and his simply central to art. And i think these paintings express that rain is actually a very dangerous color in painting. Only ever produce three or four paintings agree no more because green is a very organic color and usually turns out looking organic like a meadow but this here is no matter.

Your remarks extra tour is the chance for you our viewers to have a say in our travel itinerary and this week we are fulfilling the wish of hobby at a cost tez wrote in from albuquerque new mexico in the u. S. Now he wanted to see some more of sweden so we headed to the car headed to the countrys favorite Holiday Island that is erland hundred thirty seven kilometers long but only sixteen kilometers wide so it both lots of beach and apparently the most sunshine in the country now its population of about twenty four thousand swells to ten times that in summer so the best time to go off. For most visitors a trip to the island usually begins with the drive across the land bridge. The island is a tremendously popular summer destination for sun starved swedes but its Natural Beauty is best experienced when fall sets in. The weather gets rougher and peace and quiet descend on. Theres a lighthouse at each end of the one hundred thirty seven kilometer long coast the one of the Northern Point is nicknamed tall eric. I dont have a long time marathon tradition and the line i was is a remnants of that history currents around the island tricky so there are not just the two big lighthouses but also many smaller ones along the coast i mean. The wooden windmills that dot the landscape are typical of the region most of them are out of service but time was they turned year round in the baltic breeze when bills were long key to Agricultural Operations here. Really just about every farmer on the island put up a windmill on his farm to cover his own energy. In a day in the mid Nineteenth Century there were some two thousand when mills on the balkan a little. Girl and has been inhabited since the early stone age. Broome stone is testify to the vikings presence. Or calm castle was built from a twelfth century rampart and long served as a key fortress in battles against denmark today all that remains is a ruin. So legion palace is located nearby known for its good air the spot was selected for a royal summer residence by Swedens Queen victoria in the early twentieth century. The gardens are a major attraction. Remember they are not hard to make it is the oldest part of the palace garden consists of an english park and Italian Garden and it too was commissioned by Queen Victoria then there are later additions. We take good care of the park to ensure it looks as good in the future as it did in the past. The expensive estate continues to be used by the swedish royal family as a vacation retreat to this day every year the family gets together to celebrate the birthday in july of Crown Princess victoria. And the royal family spends eight to ten weeks a year on the palace and the starting point for their excursions we always fly the royal flag so that everyone knows a member of the royal families here. Even in the quieter months so laden is a popular destination for visitors who want to see work stuff sylvia and other family members spend their summers. I can see the attraction of getting away from the hustle and bustle and taking some time off here. If you love earl and theres no way around this palace you simply have to come whenever im here for a few days i come and pay a visit to the park is simply beautiful. And have probably. Half hours drive south of the restaurant arent serves up the local specialities. Core are bacon filled potato dumplings they prepare hundreds here every day by hand. In the end its.

The perfect way to round off a long windswept walk on the beach. Favored island with its raw and picturesque landscapes. And back to berlin where the city is the logical garden on is often in the headlines most recently when it welcomed a pair of pandas from china well as the oldest zoo in germany its been attracting crowds since eighteen forty four even though many people do have conflicting views on the subject of zoos so we spoke to the author of this book the berlin architect natasha moyes about architecture and what it actually says about our relationship to animals. On the outside it looks a bit like a five star spa the new panda garden was specifically built for berlins new panda couple only glass pane separate them from visitors pandas may. Even have chinese style lanterns architech natasha is smitten. Theyre so cute. Their new accommodation isnt just an enclosure its a veritable apartment complex. We designed this building in three sections it has a bedroom a living room and spacious garden there real comfort zone. But the space has also been designed with the visitor in mind the aim is to create an exciting experience. In that so if you. Do architecture today the indoor and outdoor enclosures are conceived as a single carefully orchestrated space. Nothing is left to chance you get every bush every surface every fence is planned on the plan natasha says the architecture directs the visitors gaze like in a theater so enclosures are like stage sets. This is merely offer an illusion of the Natural World natasha spent a decade researching zoo architecture and has published a book on the subject. Based practice mainly designs Diplomatic Missions in high threat regions like afghanistan mali and yemen. They actually share similar security requirements with zoos. But visitors dont want to experience a zoo as a prison for animals architecture can help. Them. Live didnt. We just guys enclosures boundaries you no longer see a cage or a fence instead. We have a moat. But. The boundaries become invisible they look attractive nevertheless i feel theres no such thing as an ethical enclosure were dealing with a captive animal that were putting on display in a stage setting. That touches research included the history of zoo architecture the giraffe house in berlin is typical of the style popular when the zoo opened in one thousand nine hundred four animals were displayed like Exotic Museum exhibits and pagoda style buildings reminiscent of the thousand and one nights. Around one thousand nine hundred call haagen back revolutionized design scrapping bars in favor of open enclosures at his hamburg zoo flamingos prancing next to predators in peaceful coexistence on the two humanist of course we have this ideal of a natural paradise and if i look around here i see nature not architecture have that gives me the sense that the animal is happy to school. Visitors no longer go to zoos to watch animals they can do that on t. V. They come to experience the wilderness some animals capture the hearts of the public like the baby polar bear rejected at birth in two thousand and six such media darlings deserve an expansive enclosure not a cage. Plans for singapore and St Petersburg are a sign of things to come this issue of the future offers visitors an attractive immersive experience in berlin the hippo house is right on trend for the animals at least its nothing if not immersive.
