URNE.CH cosmicball collection" celebrated its 20th anniversary in 2018/19 and published the first of the 5 ball of love® "icons" series this year. In the next 10 years until the anniversary year 2029 / "30 years of URNE. CH cosmicball collection" 4 more series of 5 will be published - every second year a series of 5 with further selected personalities and icons. Meaning, background of the term “icon”: The word “icons” comes from the Greek “eikón,” meaning “image.” When we think of conventional icon images, we primarily think of cult and holy images of the Orthodox churches. The pictures, mostly painted on wood, are consecrated by the church and are of great importance for the theology and spirituality of the Eastern churches. The purpose of icons is to inspire awe and create an existential connection between the viewer and the depicted and to God. Icons are not viewed as art objects or decoration in the Orthodox Church, but they are an essential part of Byzantine art. Icons of modern times: With the transfer of the idea and concept of icon painting to a modern object and the borrowing of elements from conventional icon painting such as the halo, a field of tension arises. The uniqueness of our existence is intended to be underlined through the modern iconic motifs, selected, outstanding personalities and stars with cult status, from various eras of postmodernism to the present. Without fear of authorities and church authorities and with the awareness of one's own transience, the ball of love "icons" series celebrates a new consciousness, a contemporary, new culture and dimension of saying goodbye and "remembering".
