Gabriele Rivet becomes Noahs Ark at the end of January. It wont
be the church sailing on the the seven seas, but a place for the presentation
and exchange of different artists positions on Noahs Ark and
the Flood.
One quickly becomes aware of the explosive force the subject has again
and again as soon as one visualizes the story of the Old Testament:
Things are not going well, the development is at a standstill, at least
in Gods eyes. As a purging finale the Flood destroys everything
that has not been brought onto the Ark by Noah and his family. Only they
and a pair of each species have the privilege to survive and guarantee
a new beginning full of hope and confidence. Or maybe not?
What kind of challenge do artists see today in the story of Noahs
Ark do they interpret it with a critical attitude towards society
or in an individual context, highly topical or visionary, positively or
negatively, theologically or globally, seriously or humorously?
Youll find out who is on the boat, and when and where Noahs
Ark takes place, when you print out the double-page of the pdf-file
enclosed. You then can then fold it to the little boat by yourself.

but of course also as individuals on the opening night of January
24 or at a later date.
