He was also the founding father of DasArts Artschool in Amsterdam.<br/>
"We are what we imagine. The greatest tragedy that can befall us is to go unimagined.”</p><p>The old man died. We cremated him yesterday and drank all night long. Even after his death he filled us with inspiration. Thank you.<br/>
Ritsaert inspired, discovered, and encouraged many people in the Arts from many countries.<br/>
He had the rare gift of liking it if people changed their forms. He cheered people in transformation, people growing out of an image of self into another part of themselves. Changing media, changing forms, changing professions:......while in transformation have a talk with Ritsaert.<br/>
Unlike most people in the Arts, and in life in general, he would not try to push you back into the old box.<br/>
He would encourage you to find a new one or simply live and create without one.<br/>
His last piece was this video" the offering". A meditation on transformation all together.<!--[embed youtube V06tr2uuTT0]--><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/V06tr2uuTT0&fs=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/V06tr2uuTT0&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><!--[/embed]--></p>maartje nevejanhttp://www.couscousglobal.com/id/176ARTICLEnews
