ceramic faces






Henric Allert

When you see a piece by Henric Allert, you recognize it. I found three of his half human, half animal faces on the walls at Handels, School of Business. A little sign said there shall be 12 of them, marking different stairs, next time I'll take time to look for the rest.

Attended a business seminar two intense evenings this week, met with a nice mix of people with all kinds of small business companies. (In Swedish: Drivhuset stöttar nyföretagare på olika sätt: bl.a arrangerar de matyttiga, korta och billiga kurser om t.ex presskontakter, säljkurser, projektledning och annat. Finns på flera platser i Sverige och är mer eller mindre öppna för andra än studenter. Här i Göteborg är alla välkomna)

This weekend I plan to visit Kalebassi, Haga, where Aino Ternstedt-Oni-Okpaku (who once started Afro Art in Stockholm) shows her collection of West African art and craft.

Enjoy weekend!

Nice to see this. I found some excellent fabrics from Spandex Collection in NYC near me which was a nice weight, not too beefy.
