The original of Go for it, Stars will be auctioned and a print will be on sale throughout the world during the World Cup. On the occasion of a reception held in Munich on 8 June, the participation of the Bremen-based artist in the FIFA World Cup edition was announced. Owusu-Ankomah was happy when he made the acquaintance of Franz Beckenbauer and when talking to the German Minister of the Interior, Otto Schily, the focus was on the artist´s brother Papa Owusu-Ankomah, who is Ghana´s current Minister of the Interior and used to be, just like Schily, Minister of Culture and Sports.

As such common ground creates closeness easily, it may well be that the first print of Go for it, Stars will soon decorate the walls of the German Minister´s office. As I have found out, the same applies to the print by Tobias Rehberger, who was, alongside Owusu-Ankomah, two-time featured artist of the exhibition Around and Around, curated by Peter Herrmann.
