Dia de los Muertos


It has been said that the Viennese people have a special relationship to death. A lot of songs, "a scheene Leich" etc., come see for yourself.
What is better know in the world might be the "Dia de los Muertos" which is celebrated by Mexicans and other Latin Americans. I didn't get to see those celebrations yet. This year i wasn't even close to Latin America, but sitting in the middle of Europe. Just was at an exhibition that showed several pieces of art, all related to death in Latin America. Kinda interesting. I don't know any south americans here in Vienna, but i was invited to a morbid costume party. Some fresh(-ly rotten) impressions for you.

A dead clown. Nice.

I have been told the liquid was vodka. Mainly vodka.
