atelier

Having been so enthralled with this discovery, PfRC is committing to showcasing local artist studios and small galleries. The name White Trash Wonderland is a bit ironic since this is in one of the poshest neighbourhoods in town. I suppose that I have my work cut out for me in this ambitious task since I encounter quite a few workshops during my long strolls and I am not at all certain that all care for any unsolicited publicity, but it does create for me a challenge of engagement that I’ve usually only window-shopped.
There was one other art gallery/musical instrument store that was having a fire-sale of sorts here in Wiesbaden where I stopped to buy a fancy greeting-card, and there is a wine-bar in Bad Karma, our fair town, that I visited once because they were exhibiting some photographs that my former boss had taken. I’m sure there are many more stories to tell, but it does feel like an imposition, breaking one’s concentration to ring to enter. Be sure to check out King Lo’s fun and iconic artwork at the website, and wish me luck in becoming a hometown connoisseur.
