Kranich Museum
The Kranich Museum opened to the public on 24 September 2011.〔http://kranichmuseum.wordpress.com/2011/09/14/einweihungs-programm/〕 It is located in the village of Hessenburg in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany. It is one of 2,000 manor houses in the region and was specially restored to house a collection of international contemporary art that explores the crane, a bird that stops on the West Pomeranian plains every spring and autumn on its migratory flight from northern Europe to Spain and North Africa.〔http://kranichmuseum.de/deutsch/deabout.html〕
==Works==
The new museum features sixteen permanent works curated by Khadija Carroll La and Alex Schweder La across six large galleries. The Museum is directed by Bettina Klein.
"A Guide to Empathy: In III Parts" by Emma Waltraud Howes and Kai Meyer is a piece that involves performance, costume, and video, of mimetic attempts to fly. "Faltungen" is a sound installation by Andy Graydon that tells the story of the folding of a thousand paper cranes.〔(An interview with artist, Andy Graydon ), Kranich Museum.〕 Composer Tamara Friebel’s "I love you" is a mini loudspeaker and video installation which stages the dance of the brolga (Australian cranes). Ward Shelley’s "Cranes Timeline" is a diagrammatic drawing depicting the evolutionary path of cranes, from the emergence on land of the amniotic egg, through the age of dinosaurs to modern birds.
Alex Schweder La's "Waiting for the cranes" is centered around a small field of corn planted for migrating cranes. This field is the same size as the room from which a visitor waits for the arrival of the crane. Likely never to appear, the work is about the gap between desire and gratification. The duo Hadley and Maxwell paint "Maybe it is They who Watch Us", drawing on examples of various decorative styles that are a part of the building's history in various forms: as graffiti, in a mural, as a repeated pattern, and in a specially designed Toile de Jouy that pictorially tells a story of the museum itself. The fiction of the museum is affirmed in Khadija Carroll La’s installation, which features Grus vigilans, a collection of stones from famous crane commentators, Aristotle, Chuang Tzu, and Virgil through to the likes of the brothers Grimm, Werner Herzog, and local collectors. An artist in residence program housed in the former coach house beside the manor will host writers and visual artists throughout the winter, who will respond to the museum’s themes.
