Somebody once told me that I am a dreamer as if trying to offend me. The truth is few people dare to dream nowadays. Actually I believe that only dreams bring us closer to everything that is real. The world is too complex to be understood only through mathematics: I have a friend who solved difficult math exercises while dreaming.There are artists who understood the importance of dreaming. Hundertwasser is one of them. His Kunst Haus museum in Wien is brilliant... a reinvented but not less original Gaudi who took architecture to a higher level.
His museum walls ondulate like curtains, the floor ondulates like waves and his work keeps telling you that you simply cannot live with prefabricated, fake laws. He turns to nature just like Gaudi to recreate ignored patterns, he puts lawn on roofs and fills a garden with huge pumpkins and then even gets away with it! And in the end, if he feels his message hasn't really been put forward, he gets naked with a cool chick in any fancy museum of the world and then calls it a "protest". How cool is that?
No major site about this guy on the internet, but there's the Wikipedia link. Thank God for Wikipedia!
