I used to write about Michael Schmidt on this very tumblr some time ago.
Well life may be a bitch, but I happen to have a few friends, and they are better than yours.
For example the other day I was watching the skies
whilst suffering in my lumbar vertebrae, and I saw this guy, believe it or not, jumping right off his plane from Berlin, landing on my balcony & handing me an issue of Frieze d/e, n° 17, Dezember 2014/Februar 2015.
This wasn’t no ordinary issue, as the Geto Boys would have said, back in the days.
For what reason? They had an article about this very same Michael Schmidt about whom there is next to close to nutin’ in teh interwebz!
So here it is, sorry for the terrible scan, and sorry I only scanned the english translation (tried to read it in german, understood a solid sentence in the whole article)
And of course, sorry to Frieze d/e and Kolja Reichert if I’m ripping off their article, but hey, it’s been a year, I guess no one is gonna buy it now, right? Credit goes to them, but The Peoples need to know about Michael Schmidt.
