Combined Provisional Standings "
Patrice Glairon-Rappaz, Paul Robach and Cédric Perillat tried from January 30 to February 5, 2011 the ascent of" Direttissima Harlin "on the Eiger North Wall. Cedric tells their adventure
"A perspective ambitious commitment to try the" Direttissima Harlin "of the Eiger North, open from 23 February to 25 March 1966 by some strong cords, American, English and German and several attempts with the help of hundreds of meters of fixed ropes.
In these forty years the street has not had many reps.
The first is attributed to Japanese who have spent three months here during the winter of 1970, with 2355 meters of fixed ropes ... After this feat was followed by the repetition of GMHM 18 days in the winter of 1978 (again with fixed ropes and everything else), then that of Tobin Sorenson and Alex MacIntyre in 4 days during the autumn of 1978. This is the first alpine-style repetition of the street. But the first ascent in alpine style and in winter remains to be done. Despite the help of fixed ropes left in place by GMHM, Slavko Sveticic has produced an incredible performance climbing alone in the street 26 hours on 15 and 16 January 1990, leaving the classical pathway of 1938. Performance by extraterrestrials! In seven days in February 1997, a team of four Russians has retraced the route in winter in this last version.
Eventually, after 1966 there has been no repeat of multiple views in alpine style (without the use of fixed ropes) in its original version. Read all about
" With this job I am continuing my research into the landscape of my real and virtual experiences, language revolves around the basic themes of my life and lived or imagined spaces. In my mental archives intersect laboratory experiments and outdoor living a physiological necessity that impels me to experience the sights and just needs me to make them be able to continue the contact, describing and deconstructing. The two-dimensional representations in this case, the result of a simple cut necessarily essential, have their own autonomy (which leaves room for the imagination of those who sees) the materials that compose them and the colors and patinas that eventually the cover. "(Paul Albertelli)
" The sculpture has a mountain of problem does not exist. What sense does it talk about sculpture, or music, or literature of the mountains? I'm just cataloging from Indian reservation, which indicate the need for climbers to stand in a closed circle but not connote particular stylistic choices.
What, then, in the Aosta Valley traditional sculpture or carving carvings? You can answer that is not specifically Crafts Alpine, in the sense of something that draws directly from the environment of the mountain, but more properly of rural handicrafts, inspired by rural life (which is not typical of the Alps) and oscillates between the sacred and profane, combining images of mountaineers and saints, shepherds and pastors of souls of animals. And the mountain is in the background.
One of the first things missing in the sculpture "Mountain" is the true characteristic of the mountain itself: the sky. But there are no cows in heaven, nor in the Aosta Valley of the sculptors of crucifixes artists Val Gardena. The sky could possibly imagine, but you almost never see. And here was the novelty of the work of Paul Albertelli, that through the choice of the profiles derived from images of fine photographers of mountains (Colonel, Camisasca) manages to make the incommensurability of the mountain, the sky indeed, and manages to place the characters (climbers, skiers, hikers) in the Alpine region for excellence .
Paradoxically, and this is another great invention of the Turin, the choice is implemented using raw materials such as metal, making it even more fascinating contrast between the heaviness of matter and the lightness of the action.
The result is surprising and can not leave us indifferent. "(Henry Camanni)

[...] - This reminds me of the story of the Garden of Eden - said Ford.
- Eh?
- The Garden of Eden, the one with the tree and the apple and those who give a bite of the apple. Did you this?
- Yes, certainly.
- Well, there's this God, your God, who places an apple tree in the middle of the garden and says, "Boy, do whatever you want, but do not eat apples." Extraordinary case, they bite into an apple, and here is that he'll jump out from behind a bush shouting "I caught, I caught!" It would not make much difference if they had not eaten the apple.
- Why not?
- Because when you're dealing with that kind of gods, in a trap you fall forever. You know what I would say if they have not eaten?
- No. What?
- "But for God's children ... that is, for me ... you could not take a bite from the tree of knowledge? Now I have to drive you because I can not stand to be with two ignorant, I know everything. "
- You think?
- I think. But you think about eating.
- You remind me of the snake.
- Eat, which must be good.
- You remind me more and more the snake. Arthur allegedly bit into the pear.
- It 's a pear - he said. [...]
