Well over fifty guests attended the opening on 26th September at Malkasten. I had expected perhaps thirty people, so I was well pleased. Some of the materials even ran out, I had so underestimated. Additionally quite a few folk also sent their apologies.
The artist Ralf Weissleder came all the way from Hamburg. Again it was Birgit who invited him to come. She has been relentlessly energetic, inviting people to come and thinking of new ideas for helping me to increase the circle of people who have taken part in this project.
I was also pleased that folk who came to the Kunstpunkte came along. It is difficult to know if people you've never met will actually really take an interest. I sent invitation cards to everyone who signed the book at the Kunstpunkte after they'd made their roses.
