acosta the 58 year old artist lives and works and berlin and new zealand her artwork is brightly colored and multi-dimensional the source of her inspiration is surprisingly the sports world i mean it's brought so much of my inspiration can be found on the pitch in football where teamwork and interconnection are importance from movements and positions interlinked on different constellations over a big area creating dynamic spaces that are in flux and that. a large exhibition of classes work concurrently be seen at homburg a bahnhof museum for contemporary art in most approach works the mingling and mixing of strong colors plays a key role. this is not this it's been a really interesting experience to see the way the colors meet the material and the paintings atomizes of birth since brain still takes on another shape or form it becomes unrecognizable in some places. and the way it collects in these pipes and

slits in the material really changes the perception of the color for these things can't be imagined or planned in advance of a plot. mountain as shapes made from styrofoam form the canvas. and even the floor is a part of the artwork. katherina cost doesn't use paint brushes she prefers working with a spray paint. it with wonder whether this is my tool it's like a spear if the color comes out at the top. and he has the trick of mine up which allows me to reach spaces high up and to great lengths i think it's expandable if i'm up to 4 metres long just like a ladder it allows me to lengthen the reach of my body and that's what i'm really interested in to change the shape and size of my body in order to reach that little corner at the top without too much effort it's sort of like a magic weapon. off akin to ones aren't. the green corner from 998 was a milestone in catalina calls as unbounded artwork ignoring all spatial barriers

she paints on entire landscapes in bright colors. from a young age i love to listen not but then i did grow up in the seventy's all the clothes were really really colorful i remember orange choses yellow shirts and green sweater vests and the sweater vest wasn't important clothing item until now the other colors to be seen like a miss neves. the purest concrete building in berlin is home to catalina cos a studio. before she creates her large artworks she designs a smaller model. currently she's working on her contribution to the helsinki b.n. dollar 2021 in finland. that's also focus is made entirely out of wood and that's why i like to place a wooden structure in front of it but at the moment i'm looking for something that has a kind of a 1st shape. so you see how i can use these models to try out different shapes with

a minimal effort and can cope them entirely in pain that distorts the camis the surface of the painting and creates cracks and gaps and it's these gaps in the painting that i'm especially interested in. there's also a model here of the current exhibition in berlin. catalina gloss that enjoys the fact that her artworks exist for a limited amount of time. it's been with us i think that's great beauty in the temporal limited existence and disappearance of the artworks which link is and is a long process because it's an advent and the deconstruction these are already happening in the present. this impressive piece will also disappear. the exhibition called it wasn't us can be experienced until january. 2021.

these days with our smartphones we can easily make phone calls across all countries in the world but in the old days that wasn't possible in the mountains so one way that people communicated was with them out for this threat news for one well you see the next and shepherds used to today it's an unusual musical instrument this one here is almost for me to long and playing on it is a real challenge you're a mass reporter michael kluger who is a real city girl by the way took on that challenge. and of the mountains. here in the swiss alps the majestic alpine is a tradition dating back centuries. i sound more like a dying mountain goat but my goal today is to play along with the purchase was

ending the right note and holding it is the biggest challenge. i haven't learned much but time's up and the pros are here to play for real. it's an instrument that goes with the postcard landscape of the alps perfectly. now it's my turn will be doing a modern piece i'm told you can actually play anything on the album on world you maybe but not me. it's a pressure. thing. i just started going at it not really knowing what i'm doing but i don't give up

and i keep playing until they're. ok i would say that was mission not accomplished because it was so much more excel thing than i expected and on the other hand it was so much fun. in the end i'm quite proud because i've played the album on and i learned it all in a single day even if it wasn't quite perfect. from one longstanding tradition to the next namely the greek presidential guard in athens they are called f. so miss and they stand guard in front of the parliament they and night in mind look boring but for many young men this job is a dream come true they have to fulfill certain requirements like being able to
