Last night (at about ten pm) I managed to pin down Katharina for her interview. I should stop saying interview I think, they are more like conversations.
Anyway, it was good, very interesting and I was glad we got it done as I leave Linz in two days! She is incredibly busy, and at 26 and still studying she is doing remarkably well with a gallery and platform space representing her in Vienna. It was inspiring stuff indeed and it was the kind of conversation that made me reconsider some of my own opinions.
This richness that comes out in a conversation with someone you have got to know quite well is such a different thing to the online questions I have also sent out. I’m not sure those are actually much use anymore, they are interesting, but perhaps there is not a broad enough sample to make it truly useful.
