Launch of the Baden-Baden Satellite Reef in Burda Style magazine.

All of Germany is invited to participate in a nation-wide community crochet coral reef to be exhibited in 2022 at Museum Frieder Burda in Baden-Baden, the spa-city where Dostoyevsky wrote Crime and Punishment. This Baden-Baden Satellite Reef will be exhibited as part of a museum-wide retrospective of the Crochet Coral Reef, a global interdisciplinary art+science “happening” now in its 16th year. The Baden-Baden reef is launched in the pages of Burda Style, a beloved Deutsche women’s magazine. Science meets art meets fabulous feminist handicraft. In this special collaboration, artists Margaret Wertheim and Christine Wertheim will work with the people of Germany on a curatorial vision inspired by the discovery of an ancient “pinnacle reef” in the remote Pacific Ocean east of the Great Barrier Reef. For inspirational images, and to contribute to this endeavor, see here on the dedicated Crochet Coral Reef website.
