FvF Berlin: Meet Sabine Schmidt “I still remember Documenta 8 (1987) with Schneckenburger. That was when Beuy’s son finished the 7000 oak project. As a 12-year-old, I thought about it a lot. What’s this about? Why plant an oak tree and stone together? I was fascinated by these thoughts and the fact that there are people whose actual job it is to think about these questions.” Years later, Sabine Schmidt opened up her gallery PSM in an old industrial building in Berlin-Mitte which became a constant in the local art scene.  Thanks to Helene von Kügelen (text), Jennifer Hofmann (translation) and Ailine Liefeld (photography) for this nice portrait!
