once again a goodbye to a gem

My dear Readers..... the apple of LOVE

COMES FROM THIS PLACE

Well, sometimes we have to say good bye to something we learnt to love for a while. I know things change from time to time and often, we see it coming, but always we hope till the last moment it won't... so it's not such a surprise but it makes you get a tear in your eye.

I Love art and so I buy them too at galleries.

Those little galleries are very important for the culture of a country... particularly, if they sell not only expensive art.

Pictures, paintings can be buyable - yes and it's such a great thing to have home to enjoy and live with. The power of art is underestimated.

We know that color can make your day and so the motive of a pic.

And yes, it makes you feel special and creative...

and so your country a land with a soul, with emotions... once again...

The gallerie I went too was on the place about 20 years now and sold art from artist from east part of germany, which only a few do.

I am happy that the gallery owner has a future but her around 36 artist, mostly painter have to find a new home for the work they made and will make.

This is the sad thing, because for them a gallery is not only a place to sell your work. The owner helps a lot to spread the word and to find the right price, to bring the art to the people and also is the owner some kind of mother and father, a friend and a good counselor.

He makes art some kind of a celebrating thing. Shows emotional ways of seeing, living, touching, feeling...

Yes, how do they survive now... one of a few questions I have... still I hope they find a new home and place, because if an artist is to sell his own work by himself he has less time to do art and to be creative. What a pity. What a shame for us, if they are not able to give us the talent they have to make a gift we like to have for our soul to lay in peace...

And then the gallery I write about is in the centre of Berlin in a backyard, an oasis just.

It's hard to find places there you can pay the rent and survive by selling the art of others. Not to tell about, how hard it can be this time...

The house is an old house, the garden very quite, a place not often to find in the centre and some tourist said once that these kind of places are nowhere to find anymore in other towns... Sad, isn't it?

But we knew, because the run of getting richer and richer is going on, we knew that one day this old house will be sold... now for over 1-2-3- million Euro... no matter how much, all have to move away, and the changing of the building and the place are to come, no matter if we like it or not but surly, this place is now history... one less in this world... one less we loved and now will just only be able to talk about....

'Cos money still rules the world.

I know, everything has a chance inside and I hope for the better for all of the invited.

So I leave this place with a tear in my eye and also with a smile.

LOVE & LIGHT
