For the love of books


The other day I was describing to my eldest daughter the merz creations of Kurt Schwitters, one of my favourite artists of the 20th century. I'm a sucker for any art that transforms, recycles, re-uses etc. old stuff into new and beautiful stuff. To me, that's what genuine creativity is all about. This is what genuine creativity is all about!

its one of his sound poems sung by a finnish voaclist, considered an expert, simply by the virtue of having memorised the thing...
