Prien's little booklets

In the middle of making these little Prien's Summer Series booklets, I noticed this colourful image:

Zeche Zollverein

In June we were in the Ruhr Region in Germany. We visited the Zeche Zollverein in Essen and the Gasometer in Oberhausen.

This picture is taken at the Zeche Zollverein, an old coal mine and factory in Essen. Nowadays this inmense area is an historic monument that accommodates several museums, creative companies and stages. A lot of restauration work is still ongoing and the old factories are covered with rust, which makes them really photogenic.

Minimalism to the Max

Olga Rosanova painted this green stripe in 1917, so this painting can been seen as a forerunner of the Abstract Expressionists Rothko and Barnett. In those avant-garde days painting the colour green was not done. Green represented nature, something avant-gardists despised. Abstract art should be painted in primair colours. Painting this minimalistic green painting Olga Rosanova was far ahead of her time.
