Artist’s talk: 50 Years of Expeditions into Naboland with Reinhard Behrens

Reinhard Behrens

The art of Fife-based artist Reinhard Behrens inhabits a mythical world of snow and ice, of eastern mystery, and of found objects and ideas which transcend time and place. This world is called Naboland. The main protagonist of Naboland is a toy submarine, found by the artist on the German North Sea coast almost 50 years ago. This talk will take the audience on a roller coaster tour with occasional time travel: visit penguins in Antarctica, track with camels across deserts, escape Vikings in Shetland, lead TinTin to the Black Isle and approach Shangri-La strapped to a yak!
