Kunstpilgerreise 1
Berlin, the "Mecca of Art" - as an artist do I have to go there?
Kunstpilgerreise 1: Fribourg-Berlin, 1100km, 65 days, 2013
Performance artist Marinka Limat took a walk from her home town in Switzerland to Berlin in the summer of 2013. On her way she stopped at over 50 art institutions, asking them to bless her in the name of art.
For artists and creators, all roads lead to Berlin, a high point of art and culture. Like many others, Marinka Limat succumbed to the irresistible appeal of the German capital. She could have gone there by train in a few hours, by car or by plane, but instead she chose to walk, giving the experience the solemnity of a reflective journey.
On this "art pilgrimage", or "Kunstpilgerreise", she walked 1,100 kilometres and visited more than fifty places of art (galleries, museums, art centres, associations, universities and artists), where the people she met gave her their blessing as well as a signed confirmation of her passage in her pilgim’s passport.
