He was up there trying (not) to fly with it. It was at a residency at The Hotel Furkablik that Alex and I attended and we did share many enjoyable nights with Panamerenko. I liked his work and broke the ice on our first night by telling him I used to work at a kite shop, we talked kites and drank. There was a language barrier separating some of the artists but there was plenty of booze and we found a set of pick-up sticks in the living room. Something we all could do, no language needed, just artists, the drink and the sticks.
