| − | '''Week 1/2'''
| |
| | | | |
| − | I missed the first week of the minor, so I was a bit late with finding my object for this project.
| |
| − | After visiting the boijmans and searching on the collection online. I chose a work of Carsten
| |
| − | Höller that is in the storage. I was really inspired bij the the colors and the shapes. And I am
| |
| − | always interested in the nature.

| |
| − | When I first saw this art work I thought it was a small object. But after doing research on the
| |
| − | internet, I saw that it is really big. And it’s wrong on the page of the boijmans. The information
| |
| − | on the webpage of the boijmans is Title: Fliegenpilz/Satanspilz/Habichtspilz But there is also a
| |
| − | title Giant Triple Mushrooms, 2010. And the information of the size on the webpage is 9 x 10,5 x 10 cm.
| |
| − | I Thought this is wrong, because I saw this picture.

| |
| − |
| |
| − | But after doing research to the size. I saw that he made small ones and big ones. The size of the big mushrooms are between 1m and 2,6m.
| |
| − | So the object in the boijmans should be the small one. But To be shure I have send them an e-mail.

| |
| − | I really like the colors, the abstract shape and I think is nice to see that it is a investigation.
| |
| − | That gives me the feeling to do a experiment.

| |
| − | '''Research'''
| |
| − |
| |
| − | After doing research in books and websites. I found more information about his artwork.
| |
| − | The artwork was inspired by the fly agaric mushroom is coming back in his work since 1994.

| |
| − | This is the first work of casten holler. He made photo's of the fly-mushrooms.
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − | The mushrooms are also in Höller’s installation, named Soma, is inspired by the myth of a
| |
| − | magical drink. According to the beliefs of Vedic nomads in northern India. Soma gave those
| |
| − | who drank it special powers and brought them closer to their gods. Nobody knows what went
| |
| − | into the drink, though some research.

| − |
| |
| − | Höller will create a living picture in two parts, each half populated with resin sculptures of the
| |
| − | red and white mushroom as well as six live reindeer, 12 singing canaries, four laboratory
| |
| − | mice and one fly.
| |
| − | In a scientific experiment, one group will be fed urine from six reindeer in the installation
| |
| − | that have eaten fly agaric while the other half will be given urine from reindeer not exposed
| |
| − | to the mushroom.
| |
| − | Visitors are invited to spend the night in a bed in the middle of the installation, to observe
| |
| − | the effects of the fly when it is caught.

| − | ''Other work of Carsten Holler''
| |
| − |
| |
| − | I knew the artist Carsten Holler of his instalation „”Test Site”. Test Site was an art installation,
| |
| − | that was displayed in the turbine hall of Tate Modern in London, UK, between October 2006 and April 9, 2007.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | I did also a research to other work of Carste Holler. To have an idea about his ideas and inspirations.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Test Site, as the title declares, is an experimental project. Using the given characteristics of
| |
| − | Tate Modern’s Turbine Hall, German artist Carsten Höller has taken advantage of the height
| |
| − | of the space, and the vast museum audience, to test a hypothesis he has been investigating
| |
| − | for some time concerning the possible effects of sliding. What would be the result of sliding
| |
| − | if it was part of the daily routine? Can slides become part of our experiential and architectural life?

| |
| − |
| |
| − | Höller’s own scientific background (he has a doctorate in agricultural science) the experimental
| |
| − | nature, is a part in his work. It is nice to see other work of him. I really like his idea of being
| |
| − | a part of his investigation.
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Höller’s work is all about of questions such as: “How do we achieve enlightenment? What role is
| |
| − | science given in our society, and what role myth?”

| − | I found this picture when I did a research to other work with soma/the fly mushrooms. I Really like this picture because it's remember me the mushrooms of Holler. And I can see the intrest of Carsten holler in this face. Carsten Holler's intrest in fly mushrooms is based on there psychoactive properties and that there is a secret in the history about it, because the fly mushrooms has a important task in the development of the human culture. As in the work of holler you see a white mushroom that is familiar for us and the fly mushroom in one mushroom as a collage. And in this face you see a guy that is normal and one whit a crazy head after drinking the soma.
