HUGS AND KISSES Spatial intervention
On Slovenska Street in front of the Premzl Gallery …
Primož Premzl, publisher and gallerist, “The Admiral”
One of the projects I'm preparing for this year is Admiral Wilhelm von Tegetthoff.
For those who don’t know, he was born in the next house here in Maribor in 1827.
I thought it was important for Maribor locals and visitors get to know this important person.
Almost every Austrian knows who baron von Tegetthoff is.
Thank you for coming.
Now the two signs have gotten a boat, in honor of the admiral and a kiss.
Petra Varl, visual artist Two years ago I had an exhibition in Kibla entitled Signs.
Now I got the approval from ECOC to post 30 such signs around Maribor.
That’s why we named it Hugs and Kisses with an exclamation point,
although I think this happens by itself then.
