The exhibition that Pipilotti Rist presented in the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia, her first show in Spain, consists of five video installations: a selection of which are considered the best works by the artist since 1994 until today. Monitors with images, music, objects that form the scenes, projectors are the basic elements of these five installations in which you can perceive the essence and the most recent evolution of the artist's work.

Sez ner

The first novel in Arno Camenisch's celebrated "alpine" trilogy is set during a single summer. The four main (unnamed) characters are a dairyman, his farmhand, a cowherd, and a swineherd who all live and work in close proximity -- but this is no Heidi. Theirs is an existence marked by dangerous work, solitude, cruelty, alcoholism, and sheer stubbornness; but the author's handling of these situations and lives is characterized at all times by affection, surreal humor, and a brilliant ear for the sounds of the setting.

The Alp

In the second book of Arno Camenisch's Alp trilogy, Behind the Station, is told through the eyes of two young brothers growing up in a small, secluded village in a valley flanked by the alpine mountains. Written in the same style as The Alp, we start to believe that there's little difference between the children and the adults in this village, save for their love for mischief and ghost stories. The grandmother, the parents, and the neighbors: it is an amphitheater full of drama, somehow colored through the eyes of children. Arno Camenisch's quiet control and powerful descriptions of village life prove that he is an international voice to follow.
