Today the American artist Bud Gibbons arrived in Germany.
We first showed him the museum. After that he was a guest of the Gymnasium im Gustav-Heinemann-Schulzentrum in Dinslaken. He introduced himself to the students. Tomorrow he will start working with them on the paintings, that will be also presented at the exhibit "Transatlantic Bridge Gallery".
We are curious about the results and wish him and the students much fun!
Bud will be at the museum on Monday. The whole team is looking forward to his visit!

Transatlantic Journal Exhibition opens in Oberhausen Germany on February 4, 2011
In November 2009, high school students from both Greensburg, Pennsylvania and Oberhausen, Germany launched the Transatlantic Journal Project. 39 blank journals were purchased and exchanged. Working in collaboration with each other, the students began to share writing and artwork on the pages of the journals.
There were no rules for the project; students were simply instructed to express themselves to each other using words and images.
Organized by Greensburg Salem High School students, this exhibition features a selection of journal entries and the journals will be on view at the LVR-Industriemuseum beginning February 4 through March 27, 2011.
Join the opening celebration on February 3 at 5 PM at the LVR-Industriemuseum. Everybody is welcome!
