Publisher Note
Heimatland: homeland. Switzerland.
Nothing happens. The panel paintings by Sprecher and Salinas are images of the middle – still lifes from a country that has only one center and no borders, that is accessible everywhere.
A country in which the gaze usually encounters a tectonic fold and wanders back from there. An extraterrestrial might ask in astonishment: What do people do here all day? Everything seems finished, nothing remains to be done. As in paradise, as in the Swiss Psalm: "In the bright spaces of heaven / Can I dream happily and blissfully"?
