Ka, die Seele des Verstorbenen, tritt durch die Scheintür am Grab, um sich an den Opfergaben zu stärken. Häufig ist der Tote am Opfertisch dargestellt. Die Hieroglyphen auf der Scheintür nennen den Verstorbenen mit seinen verschiedenen Funktionen. In den Gräbern des Alten Reichs waren die Statuen der Verstorbenen aufgestellt, die nach ägyptischer Vorstellung den Ka in sich aufnehmen konnten.

Ka, the soul of the deceased, passes through the false door at the grave to eat from the offerings. Often the deceased is depicted at the table with the offerings. The hieroglyphs on the false door name the deceased and his/her various functions. In the tombs of the Old Kingdom, the statues of the deceased were set up as, according to Egyptian belief, they could absorb the Ka.

TRASH PEOPLE by HA Schult, Köln by Jens Schommer Photography

(for English scroll down)

Aus Dosen und Kanistern, Computerschrott und anderem Abfall hatte er sie zusammengesetzt und auf eine lange Reise geschickt. Seit 1996 ziehen sein Trash People um die Welt. "Es sind alles Stationen, die auf die Geschichte der Welt Einfluss genommen haben", sagt der 66-jährige Aktionskünstler. Auf der Chinesischen Mauer, an den Pyramiden von Gizeh, auf dem Roten Platz in Moskau, aber auch in 2800 Metern Höhe am Matterhorn oder in 880 Meter Tiefe im möglichen Atomendlager Gorleben baute er seine Müllmenschen auf.

HA Schult gilt als Provokateur der Gegenwartskunst, als wilder Wolf, der wachrütteln will: Er ist der erste europäische Künstler, der den Müll und die Umwelt zu seinen Hauptthemen machte und durch schonungslose, fast aggressive Inszenierungen bekannt wurde. "Nur an starke Bilder erinnern sich die Leute", so beschrieb Schult in der Vergangenheit immer wieder die Intention seines Wirkens. Zu diesem künstlerischen Credo passen auch die "Trash-People".

Er ist ein Umweltkünstler der ersten Stunde. "Alles ist eine globale Welt geworden, und diese Globalisierung symbolisieren die Trash People mit ihrer Reise", sagt der Wahlkölner. "Die Entwicklung des ökologischen Ungleichgewichts wurde von uns Künstlern sehr früh aufgenommen", sagt Schult. Und auch seine "Trash People", die in Köln "Cologne People" heißen und aus Kölner Müll gefertigt wurden, seien ein Resultat dieser Entwicklung. "Auf dem Müll landet die Kehrseite des Wohlstands", lautet Schults Credo.

Trash People. In zwanzig Containern streifen sie wie Flüchtlinge der Konsumgesellschaft durch die Welt. Die Trash People sind Bilder von uns selbst. Wir produzieren Müll und wir werden zu Müll. Die Coca-Cola-Flasche von heute ist der römische archäologische Fund von morgen.

Die Armen sammeln den Müll der Reichen, die Ärmeren sammeln den Müll der Armen. Und die Ärmsten graben ein Loch in der Sahara, um sich am hungrigen Feuer des Mülls zu wärmen. Über allem liegt die schwarze Schallwolke der bellenden Höllenhunde. Am Ende wird es von Sand bedeckt sein und ein Jahr später wird dort ein Golfhotel gebaut werden. HA Schult, 1999

Die Trash People starteten ihren Zug um die Welt 1996 in Xanten und machten Station in Paris und Moskau (1999), Peking und an der Chinesischen Mauer (2001). Danach wurden sie in Kairo und Gizeh (2002), Zermatt (2003), Kilkenny Castle (2003), Gorleben (2004) und 2005 in Brüssel ausgestellt.

Vom 21. April bis zum 01. Mai 2006 sind die eintausend 1,80 m großen, aus Müll gepressten Figuren auf dem Roncalliplatz vor dem Kölner Dom zu sehen. Danach ziehen die Figuren weiter in den New Yorker Central Park und in die Antarktis.

Trash People by HA Schult, Cologne

He put them together from cans and canisters, computer scrap and other waste and sent them on a long journey. His Trash People have been traveling the world since 1996. "They are all stations that have had an impact on the history of the world," says the 66-year-old performance artist. He has set up his trash people on the Great Wall of China, at the pyramids of Giza, on Red Square in Moscow, but also at an altitude of 2,800 meters on the Matterhorn or at a depth of 880 meters in the possible Gorleben nuclear repository.

HA Schult is regarded as a provocateur of contemporary art, a wild wolf who wants to shake things up: he is the first European artist to make waste and the environment his main themes and to become known for his unsparing, almost aggressive stagings. "People only remember strong images," is how Schult has repeatedly described the intention of his work in the past. The "Trash People" also fit in with this artistic credo.

He is an environmental artist from the very beginning. "Everything has become a global world, and the Trash People symbolize this globalization with their journey," says the Cologne resident. "The development of ecological imbalance was taken up by us artists very early on," says Schult. And his "Trash People", which are called "Cologne People" in Cologne and are made from Cologne's garbage, are also a result of this development. "The flip side of prosperity ends up in the trash," is Schult's credo.

Trash People. They roam the world in twenty containers like refugees from consumer society. The Trash People are images of ourselves. We produce trash and we become trash. Today's Coca-Cola bottle is tomorrow's Roman archaeological find.

The poor collect the garbage of the rich, the poorer collect the garbage of the poor. And the poorest dig a hole in the Sahara to warm themselves by the hungry fire of the garbage. Above it all lies the black sonic cloud of barking hellhounds. In the end it will be covered in sand and a year later a golf hotel will be built there. HA Schult, 1999

The Trash People started their tour around the world in Xanten in 1996 and made stops in Paris and Moscow (1999), Beijing and at the Great Wall of China (2001). They were then exhibited in Cairo and Giza (2002), Zermatt (2003), Kilkenny Castle (2003), Gorleben (2004) and in Brussels in 2005.

From April 21 to May 01, 2006, the one thousand 1.80 m tall figures pressed from garbage can be seen on Roncalliplatz in front of Cologne Cathedral. The figures will then move on to New York's Central Park and Antarctica.

Cairo and Gizeh in one day by Secret Croatia

One day in Cairo.

The Khufu ship is an intact full-size vessel from Ancient Egypt that was sealed into a pit in the Giza pyramid complex at the foot of the Great Pyramid of Giza around 2500 BC. The ship is now preserved in the Giza Solar boat museum. The ship was almost certainly built for Khufu (King Cheops), the second pharaoh of the Fourth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom of Egypt. Like other buried Ancient Egyptian ships, it was apparently part of the extensive grave goods intended for use in the afterlife, and contained no bodies, unlike northern European ship burials.

Khufu's ship is one of the oldest, largest and best-preserved vessels from antiquity. It measures 43.6 m (143 ft) long and 5.9 m (19.5 ft) wide. It was thus identified as the world's oldest intact ship and has been described as "a masterpiece of woodcraft" that could sail today if put into water, lake and river.[1] However, the vessel may not have been designed for sailing, as there is no rigging, or for paddling, as there is no room.
