8 days to go

Yesterday we received an invitation from documenta 12 for an event that is on June 15, the day we arrive in Kassel. They are interested in connecting with the city of Kassel (Germany). Rather than having an exclusive cocktail party for the opening of the exhibit, they are planning a big party for the citizens of Kassel and those who are interested in documenta. The event is planned for Bergpark Wilhelmshohe. It includes a program by a jazz orchestra. Following the curators of the exhibit--Buergel and Noack--will be there to welcome everyone. According to wikipedia, this mountain park is the largest mountain park in Europe. It dates from the 1600s.

I'm not sure if I am up to it, but at midnight the party will end and documenta 12 club night begins. And I thought we were attending an art event. I hope to get some wonderful photos.

Documenta seems to be taking an inclusive position regarding this exhibition. I am very excited about the ideas.
