Hello Mr. Bender,
I just want to say thank you for the fast fax response on Monday before the
exposition. We are through the examination with our project. (the people
from the board of works are really nice, like we thought) and so we could
celebrate our inauguration.
And now I can tell you a cheerful notice that this project was the event of the evening thanks your help. The people were from the quite new medium very excited so that there was only praise. We had conscious of using products to touch for the visitors and that was used often. And especially they were excited of the paints, which we put in a small bowl and brush there. In the two hours I was in the room there were just 2 people who didn’t want to be painted, many other came again on their way back.
The interest was that the paint (diluted with water) was enough for the whole evening, although there were really many people. After the inauguration evening it looks very coloured in the room, so you could see that the people had very much fun – I think that’s the priority. For us it was just fun ( also on the following days it seemed to be very coloured there, some people told me)
I send you some photos. The picture of the people are statues from the video I took on the evening ( the long exposure time of my camera couldn’t hold out a person)
