Eine Zumutung! Hab einfach nach zeitgenössischer Kunst geschaut und bin auf diese Galerie,Villa,Kunstausstellung,Bibliothek(na was denn jetzt?) aufmerksam geworden! Also einfach mal vorbeigegangen mit der Erwartung 1-2 Stunden gedankenverloren mit mir und den ausgestellten Werken zu verbringen. Also eingetreten…Ticket gekauft…dann die Info: "ich bin gleich für sie da….muss nur noch schnell was Essen—hab ich heute ganz vergessen". Also erstmal die Grundbedürfnisse stillen-nach einer erstaunlich kurzen Weile war dieser Vorgang abgeschlossen und ich fand mich in einer dialogischen Führung in diesem Haus wieder…1 zu 1 Betreuung…also nichts mit gedankenverloren vor einem Werk sitzen. Kurz den Gedanken gehabt wegzulaufen….dann aber gedacht ne jetzt mal einlassen mal machen,was soll schon passieren!Und was soll ich sagen es war großartig!Es war eine Zumutung aber im besten Sinne! Vielen Dank für diese Erfahrung, das buchstäbliche begreifen und wahrnehmen der Werke im Raum! Absolute Empfehlung!!!

Super Essen und Atmosphäre
