Bremen Town Musicians What do perestroika, the Brothers Grimm and this statue have in common? Depends. Just outside Riga's over 800-year old monument, St Peter's Church, is a statue that is sure to stop you in your tracks. It's based on one of many fairy tales from the brothers. The donkey, dog, cat and rooster, well past their prime and yearning for freedom, decide to head to Bremen to become musicians. After finding a cottage that they would love to call home, they realise that its inhabitants are robbers. To get rid of them, the animals stand on each other's back and raise such a ruckus that the robbers make haste. However, this sculpture, created by Krista Baumgaertel has a slightly different twist to the original tale. It was, after all, created in 1990, a year before gaining independence from the Soviet Union. It was the time of Gorbachev, and his restructuring programme was already redrawing borders and creating new countries. In this sculpture, the animals aren't trying to scare away the robbers. Instead, they are peering through the Iron Curtain, to a new world of freedom and possibilities. In case you are wondering what Bremen has to do with Riga, it's also because they are considered as twin cities. _________________________________________ Best enjoyed slowly 🇱🇻 #bestenjoyedslowly #atklaj #enjoylatvia @visit_latvia @enjoylatvia _________________________________________ @nofixedaddrs #nofixedaddrs _________________________________________ ………. ……... …….. ……. …… ….. …. … .. . #brementownmusicians #onceuponatime #bremerstadtmusikanten #townmusiciansofriga #rigaoldtown #latvijas #riga #latvia #latvija #rigacity #grimm #brothersgrimm #mikhaelgorbachev #perestroika #freedom #ironcurtain #kristabaumgaertel #sculpture #art #artist #sculptures #statue #sculptor #sculptureart #installation #artistsoninstagram (at St. Peter's Church, Riga) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5HkFcugjmz/?igshid=xldvfwn1re4r

It is Friday! Yay! 🙌 In summer I often gravitate to very bright colors. 💕 And while it is very hot in southern Germany right now, here in the north the weather is unstable as usual. So, when it gets cold in the evenings, I love to wear my Oneiro Cardigan. #oneiroCardigan With the vibrant pink and lovely gradient it is definitely my entry for this weeks #favoriteFoFriday 🧶 What finished object did you enjoy most this week?

BREMEN MIZIKACILARI Grimm Kardeşler'in yazdığı bu unutulmaz fabl- masal hangimizin çocukluğunu süslemedi ki! Bremen Mızıkacıları şimdi de ana yurdu Almanya ile İsviçre arasında sanatsal bir köprü kuruyor. Köprünün mimarı ise Mücevher Tasarımcısı ve çağdaş sanatçı Suzanne Syz. Ünlü tasarımcı unutulmaz masalı, hayallerimiz kadar görüntümüze ışıltı katacak bir broşa çevirdi. Broş adeta Bremen’den Cenevre’ye uzanan renkli bir masal gibi. Mine sanatının en başarılı çalışmaları arasında yer alan broş sizce de harika görünmüyor mu? Harika bir iş çıkardın @suzannesyzartjewels , yürekten kutluyorum 💋. #grimmbrothers #bremenmızıkacıları #brementownmusicians #tale #story #childhood #memories #bremen #germany #culture #art #geneva #switzerland #brooch #suzannesyzartjewels #artwork #jewelry #oneofakind #donkey #dog #cat #rooster #stunning #awesome https://www.instagram.com/p/B2_wKJzFMOh/?igshid=pmt8vqn4p5u7

Musicians Of Bremen: a donkey, a dog, a cat and a cockerel. 🐴🐕🐈🐓 "The political monument "Bremen Town Musicians" was created by Bremen artist Krista Baumgaertel. The sculpture is based on a fairy tail by the Brothers Grimm, but created with a political subtext as it was inspired by Mikhail Gorbachev's perestroika. The sculpture, a gift from Riga's sister city Bremen, was made in 1990. It's a humorous approach towards previous political stereotypes. The bronze figures are not staring through the window at the robbers' feast at a table full of drinks and food; they are peering through the Iron Curtain on a completely new world where they had thought to find a bone or a piece of meat."  Informations by: https://www.liveriga.com/en/3123-bremen-town-musicians 📷 Photo by a tourist 🌎#patyaroundtheworld 🌍 #aroundtheworld #worldtour #worldtravel #worldtraveller #worldphotograpy #worlddream #travelwomen #travels #travellers #travelerslife #travelgram #traveling #travellover #travelphotography #travelholic #wanderlust #realizedreams #instatravel #travelgram #wonderfulworld #travelalone #enjoylife #lovelife #wondeful_places #unforgetable #riga #brementownmusicians #latvia #letonia (em Sculpture of the Town Musicians of Bremen) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnowfkfBEGZ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1jkoa31prcxqi
