27 questions, one picture


the director‘s leaving and so we‘re saying „addio“. 27 former fellowship holders at villa massimo - the german academy in rome - look back on their experience: on rome, on the currywurst, on the swimming pool that never was and, of course, on their time with the director himself, herr b. the outcome is a multifaceted picture of this unique german cultural institution. it‘s like a mosaic comprised of 27 bold, fresh questions posed by author miriam holzapfel and 27 wonderfully insightful answers from writers, musicians and designers who have got to know herr b and villa massimo. and, fittingly, the picture is as richly illustrated as it is illustrative. photographer and fellowship holder göran gnaudschuhn accompanies each question-and-answer pairing with a photograph, another mosaic piece in a sparkling kaleidoscope of colour, whose pages are a book, a farewell and a big thank-you.
