Elephant in the room

 

as galleries are still (fairly) empty, anybody who enters is the elephant in the room, this time it was the artist of the exhibition himself.

Garden Couch festival day #2

 

started off with an early afternoon concert by the Croatian artist Martin Ladika 

after a lunch break that was longer than I expected (one of the performances was cancelled) and a stroll to a different part of the city, I saw an improvisation theatre performance... 


and after another stroll and a bit of a reading (in the sun) break I saw another performance, and to my great surprise Ryuzo was in it.

Garden Couch Festival

started off with Hana Fatur (and her sister Lara, who didn't make it to the blog somehow). I haven't seen live performances for so long I swear I had a huge lump (of coal, or maybe the pressure was so great it had changed to diamond) in my throat and my eyes were trying their best to be a strong dam and hold back all the water that seems to be floating around in my head....


then it was time to walk to a garden in the centre of town where I (and a few others) listened to Mileta Grujić 


and then went back for Katanari, a guitar duet...


and the evening ended with a relaxed jam session... And there you go, for a day, life seemed to be normal and it seemed to make sense...
