Im neunten Himmel opening: September 27th 2008, Museum Stein A We create "Im neunten Himmel" around the astonishing life of Andreas Koffler, a Jesuit monk who travelled to China as a missionary. Juxtaposed in between the two worlds of the Austrian Baroque and the late Ming era he became a prominent "mandarin" at the court of the Chinese emperor. Fusing by comparison and contrast those two worlds that existed at the same time but far apart, we develop a mental image in motion of a planet still divided but at the brink of coming together. Andreas Koffler stands as a representative of this beginning traversing of times and geographies of modernity. |
