00:09I think it's the first exhibition on the Dachshund in the world we can say that
00:13with a certain conviction it definitely is I mean there have been exhibitions on
00:18the human animal relationship there have been exhibitions on the dog in art but
00:22this is very specific we didn't want to make a general exhibition we wanted to
00:26take the Dachshund as an object as a inspiration to artists and trace it
00:31through history in all its different kind forms and and and important works of
00:36art by Picasso, Warhol and Olkney and also ephemera so it's I think we can be
00:42quite proud having brought together so many objects
00:54we also treasure and respect the dog itself so on certain days like sausage
01:02day Saturday you come with your dog it doesn't have to be a Dachshund it can be
01:08another small breed and you can visit the exhibition and we want to take the dog
01:12seriously as a personality and the dog can walk around can interact will be
01:20able to watch videos look outside the window smell and of course that's what
01:24the dog really is interested in it's not that interested in art and so it's an
01:29interactive exhibition that also takes the Dachshund very seriously
01:42the Dachshund in general is very special in its form I would say it's a very
01:48curious a very special form very long kind of too long actually with the short
01:54legs and it looks already surrealistic to me
02:04we got Marcello in 2013 when I did not manage to have children so then we got
02:16him and he's my baby there's something so like cute and philosophical and special
02:23about these dogs yeah you are very special
