Abroad: On the way to The 44th Art Cologne
Timing is everything. A day later…Despite the airline catastrophe caused by Volcano Eyjafjallajokull in Iceland, 1301PE made it to Europe via London. Dinner at St John Bread and Wine with Paul Winstanley was the perfect meal after a long flight. Then the Eurostar to Brussels to see Ann Veronica Janssens and a visit to Pierre Marcolini (best chocolate). After two nights, Cologne to set up a fantastic booth at the 44th Art Cologne art fair.

Abroad: Financial Crisis Theatre in Iceland
Bjorn of the Danish collaborative SUPERFLEX alerted the gallery to a theatre project in Iceland that echoes prior projects by SUPERFLEX. On 12 April the Special Investigative Committee of the Parliament will release the report addressing the events and causes leading up to the banking crisis in Iceland. The staff of the Reykjavik City Theatre has decided to read the document out loud in its entirety. It is approx. 2000 pages long and will be read aloud by a troupe of 45 actors over 3-5 days. There will be a televised broadcast of the event and open admission for the whole nation.

The World Famous Stubb's
