“Meeting” was an art project for the ‘GrenzArt’ performance festival in Kirschau, Germany. “Meeting” strove towards communication, understanding, exchange and commonality. Hannes Egger collected pieces of clothing from people in the border triangle of the Czech Republic (Usti nab Labem), Poland (Gronòw) and Germany (Kirschau) before sewing them together into a big picnic blanket and then inviting the people who donated the clothes and others to a tri-nation picnic.
