has been for sale for some time, as you have seen. The maintenance and ongoing development to keep our non-profit and idealistic platform for contemporary art running and safe from hackers etc. costs money that is no longer there. Because of small investments that are necessary now and the running costs, we will have to shut down with a heavy heart at the beginning of summer on June 21.

A WINTER DAYBREAK ABOVE VENICE
2016
120 (w) x 80 (h) x 2 cm
acrylic and oil on canvas
Winter in Venice.
Fog rolls over the island.
Dimmed light and subdued colors everywhere.
Venetians speak in a hushed tone, dressed in fur coats and hats.
Low voices from the piazzas, churches and small restaurants.
Gondoliers guide their narrow boats out of the mist.
Winter is a romantic season, a poem of the golden age.
Time stands still, world stands still.
Winter in Venice.
Waiting for a daybreak.

"Venice was and is full of lost places where people put up for sale the last worn bits of their souls, hoping no one will buy.”
- Ray Bradbury
