„Man sollte alle Tage wenigstens ein kleines Lied hören, ein gutes Gedicht lesen, ein treffliches Gemälde sehen und, wenn es möglich zu machen wäre, einige vernünftige Worte sprechen.“
Serlo, von Goethes “Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre”
What’s the kid on the right thinking? Did this photograph capture the start of his finding his own way apart from his family - or did he see his friend across the street and wanted to show off his sweet tuxedo? When you take the first steps of your own Bildungsroman, do you know it, or do you only see them in hindsight?
Does putting up posters of some terrible band on your bedroom walls count? Or leaving whatever incredibly pretentious book you’re reading lying around so someone will ask you about it?
Or putting putting literary quotes into collage descriptions, even when you’re wayyyyy too late to be starting a Bildungsroman?
Mixed Media Collage: Linocut print, found paper, ink.
Note: Collage is sold matted but not framed.
The matted collage measures 400mm x 500mm, which is a standard frame size. Pictured frame is from gerstaecker.de.
