«Quand quelqu’un élabore des choses de son côté, d’une façon très égocentrique, très stupide, très simple, mais en même temps très honnête, très sincère, puis rend ce travail public et que d’autres personnes soudain reconnaissent leurs propres préoccupations dans ces choses faites par un autre, et qu’elles comprennent quelque chose ou ressentent quelque chose, là, et seulement là, il y a art.» Hans-Peter Feldmann, extrait d’un entretien avec Kasper König, Frieze, 91, mai 2005.
Une forme ambigüe d’Autobiographie de tout le monde (Gertrude Stein) qui fait art.

«27 Senses, an exhibition with Kenneth Goldsmith/ UbuWeb, Carl Michael von Hausswolff/ ?Selmer Nilsen, Karl Holmqvist, Jutta Koether, Eline McGeorge. 25 April – 27 June 2009?. Curated by Lina Dzuverovic, Electra?, Kunstmuseet KUBE Apotekergata 16, 6004 Ålesund, Norway, takes as the point of departure the life and work of seminal artist Kurt Schwitters (1887-1948), who spent many years in the area of Møre and Romsdal in Norway during his exile from Germany in the 1930s. Much of his time was spent on the island of Hjertøya near Molde where he lived and worked in a summer hut, now named Schwitters’ Hütte (pictured).
The title, 27 Senses comes from the opening line of Schwitters’ Merz love poem An Anna Blume. In it Schwitters alludes to the five senses not being enough to describe the object of his desire. This notion of synesthetic experience carries through all of Schwitters’ works and is manifested in his wish for Merz ‘to create connections, preferably between everything in this world’. In his quest for an experience not unlike a Wagnerian Gesamtkunswerk, Schwitters longed for all of his works to be perceived as one lifelike experience. It is precisely such an experience that 27 Senses seeks to create through combining the exploration of the local area with the works in the museum.»
