I\u2019m proud to have worldwide renowned art curator and artistic director of London\u2019s Serpentine Galleries Hans Ulrich Obrist as my guest in today\u2019s episode. Hans Ulrich is very special in many ways, as with never-ending energy he is calling out for the urgency to make a contribution to the world every single day. This is exactly what matters most to him. \n\n\nHans Ulrich is sharing with us how he already as a little boy curated his child room with art post cards, how he sees his entire life as a chain reaction ever since his 1st studio visit at Swiss artist duo Fischli/Weiss, watching the film \u201cDer Lauf der Dinge/The Way Things Go\u201d, and how the discovery of art books built the basis for his entire world of thinking and feeling. He has agglomerated a library of more than 10.000 books, and seemingly reads as much as he is traveling and connecting people \u2013 all at once.\n\u201cWe need to think whom we can bring together, that\u2019s what we need to do every day\u201d, Hans Ulrich says. We will also hear from him how the entire art world will change with the pandemic and what it means for the future of personal encounters.\n\u201cI think it\u2019s so important that we unlearn and relearn our old patterns of thinking and storytelling, in a way that allows us to be in communion with our environment\u201d he states, quoting the self-acclaimed queer black troublemaker Alexis Pauline Gumbs.\n\nHans Ulrich embodies an inexhaustible source of meaningful ideas to me and it feels just impossible to do him justice in this podcast. \nSo get ready for a most inspiring journey with a walking powerhouse....\n\nAnd please check show notes!
