 500 Pieces

While working on this huge hemisphere map made of 6000 pieces I wanted to see something different. Therefore I decided to open up a new construction site 

 on the moon :-)

 It's a DINO/Ravensburger jigsaw puzzle made in the Czech Republic.

It shows a mix of the worldfamous picture taken during the Apollo-15-flight and Astronaut Irwin (1971) and the Earth rising behind the lander.

Okay, I played a bit with Picasa to transform these weird-cut pieces into a snapshot

I visited an exhibition of "Hundertwasser" today

 At the Osthaus Museum Hagen 

founded 1902 by Karl Ernst Osthaus inside the Villa Folkwang

The new antrance, decorated for the exhibition of Friedensreich Hundertwasser (1928-2000)

with reflections of the round hall of the Osthaus Museum:

Unfortunately it was forbidden to take photos of the artwork: paintings and lithographies, tapestries, architectural models, stamps, phonecards and books. I really like the atmosphere created by blue and green walls...

Some years ago (2009) I visited a house built on plans of F. Hundertwasser and opened in 2005:

I was happy to see this model at the exhibition, too.

Okay, at the end of the main exhibition I strolled through the Osthaus Museum. I know its interior since I was a young girl. My grandfather took me there from time to time.

"Gaberndorf" by Lionel Feininger (1921)

and a view into the entrance hall

 

 

A Painting by Auguste Renoir: "View from Haut-Cagnes-sur-Mer" (1903)

In the museumshop I found a children's book with stickers

to build my own Hundertwasser-House and City

If I am not allowed to be creative with my camera, I'll be creative with this :-)
