About the Initiators

Niklaus Rüegg

Zürich

Als sechsjähriger Knabe malte ich eine Zeichnung. Auf der Rückseite findet sich folgende Beschreibung der Kindergärtnerin: «Wind bläst um Apfelbaum und wirbelt Pistole, Cowboyhut und Papier in die Luft».
Mitten auf der Zeichnung prangt neben den aufgezählten Gegenständen ein riesenhafter Apfel. Warum dieses zentrale Objekt in der Beschreibung nicht erwähnt wurde, ist mir bis heute ein Rätsel.
