German Translation: Art is in the Eye of the Beholder

Adrian Ludwig Richter - "Frühlingsmorgen im Lauterbrunner Tal" in 1827. He painted this at the age of 24!
Below is my translation of the article. I looked for the author, but couldn't find it listed. I wrote the translation in a form for myself, not a perfect translation into English. There will be mistakes from the idea presented in German. I probably misspelled stuff, not paying full attention to what language I was working with. The translation not really interesting, yet the methods I am using to try to improve my German is the main idea. Image taken from Wikipedia commons.

Art lies in the Eye of the Viewer
In the East German gallery go students the question to, what is art. Though grasp them also even to pen and paper.

Regensburg: and up once to backfire it. The museum educator Karla Volpert clap in the hands and we are again clear awake. We are in the East German gallery and try here out to find, what art is. We begin with a "Fallpicture" by Daniel Spoerri "Palindrome Banquet. Is that important art? A assmblage of 2002 with dirty plates and glasses? Our opinion above goes far apart.

That second artwork, that we in the exhibition to consider, bears the name "Spring Morning in the Loud Brunner Valley," of Ludwig Richter 1827 painted – a detail accurate picture with a festive and happy aura. Ludwig Richter visited the Swizz and fascinated with the area painted he the mountain mass the virgin (young woman) in the Berner (region) upland. What look at up on the picture? Which area is it? Which year time? To was directs it? Was would we hear – chirp there the birds? Mooing of the cows? Which emotion wakes the painting in us? Joy? Sorrow? Security? Confusion? We plunge in the world of the artist.

Art is for all to make
Of many old, detail painted oil paintings to down to many abstract and colorful, modern, acting plants, is in the East German Gallery in Regensburg all available. On the walls find yourself all over information, sometimes large, sometimes small text, the picture wrote and us this closer brought.

It becomes apparent, that all of us another taste have – a like rather futuristic picture, the other time the painting of the romantic. Some paintings boring are, others paintings touch one and some paintings appear actually disturbing, but not inferior exciting.

Art is for all to make. She can touch, provoke and a to the to reflect bring. That special on the art are the colors and technique, the history narrated. The personal opinion to the art is any even to deliver. The art force many miscellaneous emotions out, the in any miscellaneous emotions evoke.

Students become the Artist
Nobody knows exactly, what in the artists act, when she the brush in the hand hold. However can man try, with the help of the painted pictures the emotions to realize, she recreate or are all the history adds, the painter tells would like. In a museum can man just this history listen and for yourself decide, what man therefore feel or about what man think will.

After this we us enough with the each artwork dealt had, provides Volpert us charcoal pencils, pastel and paper on. Every of us become the opportunity, a picture, the him on any special art we know touched, choose and ending up. We are excited. On of the ground reclining and sitting painting we go. It arises many various pictures. Some are us satisfied, others not at all. And again dive questions on, what is art? Are our works art? We say – yes.

That art form East Germany Gallery is very informative and of all exciting. Here become a the art story near use. Each of us are certainly again coming. And you?

German Practice - Dr. Alban


Ich muss Deutsch üben, um Deutsch zu lernen.

Ich habe Dr. AlbanLook Who's Talking” horen. Ich denke es ist ein gutes Lied. Er murmelt in das Lied. Ich möchte die Texte verstehen. Ich suchte und las die Texte. Die Texte waren einfach, daß sie mich beeindruckten. Ich erinnerte mich, im Radio in Jacksonville erklärte die Show, ein Mann sei angeblich Arzt. Aber er hat Leute betrogen. Es ist illegal, als Arzt angerufen zu werden, wenn Sie kein Arzt sind. Der Gastgeber sagte, kann Arzt als Dr. Alban der DJ verwendet werden.

Alban Nwapa kommt aus Nigeria. Er ging nach Schweden, um Zahnmedizin zu studieren. Um die Schulkosten zu decken, war er ein DJ. Er hat in den Platten gesungen. Er beendete die Schule und eröffnete eine Zahnheilkunde. Er hat den DJ behalten, da er gut bezahlt hat. Unbekannt für das Radio, der DJ Dr. Alban ist ein echter Arzt. Er war ein bekannter Musiker in Deutschland.

Danke fürs Lesen. Poste, wenn du willst. Ich wüsche ihnen einen wunderbaren Tag!

I must practice German, to learn German.

I heard “Look Who's Talking” by Dr. Alban. I thought that is a good song. He mumbles in the song. I wanted to understand the lyrics. I searched and read the lyrics. The lyrics were simple and they impressed me. I remembered on the radio in Jacksonville the show said a man was supposed to be a doctor. But he scammed people. It is illegal be called a doctor when you are not a doctor. The host said can you be called a doctor as in Dr. Alban.

Alban Nwapa is from Nigeria. He went to Sweden to study dentistry. To pay for school, he was a DJ. Er sang in his records. Er finished school and opened a dentistry. He kept the DJ as it paid well. Unknown to the radio, DJ Dr. Alban is a real doctor. He was a popular musician in Germany.
