...time already. Now, Gursky has published a cycle of large-sized picturesthat pick 'Cocoon' out as the central theme: The Cocoon pictures sre
referring to the current club culture:
Gursky uses the big Techno events Cocoon is staging as drafts. The architectural frame of his works is referring to the design of the
CocoonClub Frankfurt. The spatial concept was developed by Techno Dj and musician Sven Vaeth, together with the design agency 3deluxe. Gursky's pictures refer
to the graphic templates and thus form an ideal approach to the original CocoonClub. 'Cocoon I' was already the cover of the 'Cocoon Morphs Tokyo' CD, which
was released in spring in Japan exclusively.
In autumn, this CD containing only exclusive tracks is to be released in Europe, too. However, Cocoon fans don't have to wait until then: six of the seven
tracks of the CD will be released on three 12' vinyl records (that form the total of Gursky's picture when put together) in order to celebrate the 50th vinyl
release of Cocoon Recordings.
Here, excellent electronic music meets the work of the most important contemporary German artist worldwide - again, Cocoon explores new frontiers and
combines art forms of the 21st century.
