Went to retrospective of Bayrle´s work at the MACBA (Museo de arte contemporáneo de Barcelona); the exhibition is called I´ve a feeling we are not in Kansas.

Bayrle is a German artist, not very well known, since most of his work was in the hands of a few private collectors while the rest was boxed and stored by him decades ago, and rescued only for this show (his first retrospective ever). He has meticulous and interesting work in sculpture, film, collage and illustration that dates from the 60s and onward. Alas, what I considered to be the best of it was nowhere to be found on the web, nor can the detail of some of it be properly appreciated. I´ve a feeling we are not in Kansas. I like that.

    Awesome. What is to be not in Kansas? Is it to fly from one continent to the other every week and think it is normal? I like that.
