And another exhibition – photos, of course – that sounds interesting. Actually it is 2 exhibits by the same photographer, Birgit Neiser, though on either “side” of the globe – one in Germany, the other one in Sydney.

part of a group exhibit at Kunsthalle Hammans, Warngau

20. Juni – 15. September 2009
