At the HopArt-jump the HopArt Protest-list had a few additions at the Saturday Jump in Eslövs Trollsjön (=Gremlin Lake, or Lake Troll… go figure…).

I samarbete med Eslövs Kulturskola kommer Konstministern att utföra sin (ö)kända Hoppkonst. Konstministerns livslånga Hoppkonst-turné har nu äntligen kommit så långt som till trollsjön i Eslöv. Förra årets planerade hopp fick inställas - men i år är Konstnären ogipsad och vi hoppas på vackert väder (speciellt med tanke på att det är utomhuskonsert). Hoppet föregås av att Kulturskolan tågar genom stan (från Trollsjön till Trollsjön) och sedan framför sin berömda utomhuskonsert i Trollsjöparken. Efter detta lär staden och publiken vara uppvärmd nog för att utstå ett Konsthopp! Hopptiden är preliminär, c:a kl 14. Men sker som sagt i direkt anslutning till utomhuskonsertens genomförande! Kom och lyssna, kom och se, kom och upplev!!
At the Ministry this week it’s been very busy. Lot’s of meetings due to no day-job and all the new contacts this has brought on. It’s a busy life having no day-job! A heavy spring storm is raging outside at the moment and ones mind are slowly coming to terms with the fact that the winter might be over… The spring is here! Being outside a day last week in the sun made it obvious it’s really warming now. The flies has awakened, as well as the spring flowers. Snowdrops and such! Even the lawn starts looking a bit green now and I’ve already spotted the first Butterflies!! The Ministry projects for this year is taking shape more and more and one of them www.fource.se is now picking up speed for real! Sponsor-money is showing up. Real contacts have been made with several companies and people surrounding the project. Fource is due in November. A pier is planned for September, and before that a world-record attempt in street-painting will take place in June. And July might mean HopArt in Russia… More about all this later of course. Planning and plotting is under way. Since a trip to Russia is being planned a few images from this big country will surface now and then here at the News Blog starting today. First image in the series “From Russia With Love” is this:
