a thought

Since about the 20th of february @ the Secession museum in Vienna the swiss artist Büchel shows an interessting exhibiton called "Element 6".
"Element 6" is actually a viennese swingerclub that moved from its normal location to the Secession museum @ the Naschmarkt.

Since the first day we heard a lot of discussions going on about this exhibition.
For instance the austrian politician Heinz-christian Strache said "...the liberal party has to be totally fucked up if their head if they give 90.000 euros to a gangbang party at some museum..."

We think: we disagree with the chancellor and his opinionated friends because for us art has allways been provocative and people were and are allways affraid of the new and different. "Der Zeit Ihre Kunst und der Kunst ihre Freiheit" - "Time needs its art and art needs its freedom"

All Eyes On.... PAM HOGG

I remember sitting in my room in my hometown Wels when i was about 14 years old and listening to "Siouxie and the Banshees" and looking them up in the internet - wish was more of a task as a pleasure at that time believe me. What cought my eye was the AMAZING crazy costumes Siouxie Sioux was wearing - thank god for credits - the dress was by PAM HOGG . Back then as now i was completely fascinated and attracted to/by independent strong women who frankly just don't give a fuck. So the combination of Siouxie Sioux and Pam Hogg was almost to good to be true ;) About Pam: Pam Hogg studied at the Glasgow School of Art, where she won the Newbury Medal of Distinction, the Frank Warner Memorial Medal, the Leverhulme Scholarship and the Royal Society of Arts Bursary, which subsequently took her on to further study at the Royal College of Art in London, where she gained her Masters of Art degree. Pam Hogg’s first catwalk show was with the collective ”Hyper Hyper’ in 1985....
