Christos muse is dead

    Photo: dpaNew York --
Her most spectacular project was certainly the wrapping of the Reichstag in Berlin, the couple Christo and Jeanne-Claude was considered the most flamboyant pair of the international art scene.
51 years were the two artists together, and now Jeanne-Claude died at the age of 74 years in New York.
Christo and his muse and wife were both born in 1935 at the same day that currently have two joint projects. Christ wants to accomplish now anyway.
"He wants to redeem the promise that they have been together many years ago: that the art of Christo and Jeanne-Claude to go on," said the photographer of the family, Wolfgang Volz. "Just like Jeanne-Claude himself would have wished."
Riverside Arkansas, a more than ten-kilometer journey is to be veiled. Three to seven meters above the water creates a wave of shiny fabrics, interrupted by bridges, rocks, trees and streams of light.

"Team has quality for the rise"

Cologne - There are some statistics that seem paradoxical. About: Almost 42 000 spectators attended on average since the beginning of April, the home games of the 1st FC Cologne. These spectators were allowed in full for six months, two home wins of their clubs in the quaint RheinEnergieStadion celebrate and rarely saw their respectable football team.
Numbers, statistics, facts, which is a world champion can not accept and will. Wolfgang Overath hopes to four points from two games recently at a new self-FC-professionals and more confidence in their own strength. His appeal: "This team has so quality, it has recently proved. We have the best coaches and the best players we could get. But these players need to be aware of what it means to be allowed here in front of these fans and play this fantastic scenery. "
The FC-President reiterated what he (even at the beginning of the season so far unsuccessfully) demanded. "We need to be a power back at home. The players have to show for guys what they are. The respondent shall accrue again with fear in us, "said Overath ahead of the match on Sunday, the SC Paderborn.
He's severed tail light in the 2nd League. A game, then, is the clear favorite of the FC and is under pressure to succeed. The success of Offenbach 4:1-and 2:2 in Gladbach Derby confirm in Overath, but in the belief that might have come for the self-proclaimed ascension aspirants the turning point for the better: "If the team continues it grows together, then I'm not worried about our destination promotion. What is clear is that we need to start a series. And against Paderborn, because we need to make a beginning. But it will be difficult enough. "
The FC boss warns against underestimating the Ostwestfalen too. "We had big problems in the preseason against Paderborn," recalls the president to a painful 0-2 defeat away (September 29, 2006) and the lean 1-1 at home (25 February), "so we need to Paderborn with the same passion like playing against Gladbach. "The guests were much better than it expresses the standings.
And if that is so urgently needed home success, the FC could play to advance into the regions, which imagines Overath: "Gladbach be in Fuerth. On Sunday evening, the world can once again look very different. "
