The Bavarian artist Manfred Barnickel sees the world from above. Viewing things from a higher vantage point widens the field of vision, opens up new perspectives and the world suddenly becomes a plaything for free, childlike thinking that frees itself from the confines of everyday life. "Twisted Views" takes a playful look at our perception and sharpens it.
