About me.
“A life without a bicycle is possible, but pointless. And what could be better than a preview of a Beckmann exhibition? Seeing relaxed curators because the transport of artworks—legally supported by me—has once again gone smoothly. Add to that a homemade cappuccino from a portafilter machine. My state of mind? ‘So far, everything has always turned out well.’”
