Great news for South American Kinski fans, a selection of Beat Presser’s photographs of Klaus Kinski and Werner Herzog are now on display at MAMBO, the Museo de Arte Moderno in Bogotá, Columbia:  http://www.mambogota.com/mambo/interna_secciones.php?subtitulo=Actuales

I don’t have many details to hand, so check out the website for opening times and admission prices &c.  I understand the exhibition is proving to be a great success and was originally planned to run for just two weeks but following the successful launch a couple of days ago, the exhibition will now run until 30 June 2011.  Plenty of time to get yourself over there!

In the meantime, Beat Presser has kindly sent some press articles about the exhibition which consists of 31 amazing, huge photographs (100cm by 150cm), which you can see from his stills below and also from this YouTube clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iqqsjLv3nsA

Beat Presser seems to be keeping himself busy with the Kinski exhibition still running in Münster, this exhibition in Bogotà and the various photography courses he is running at the Universidad Nacional.  Go and see some of his work if you can, or buy the Kinski catalogue, which you can find on Amazon.

Thanks to Beat Presser for telling Du dumme Sau! about the exhibition, for sending through the articles and these stills he has taken of the exhibition at MAMBO:
