Gaius Valerius Catullus, often called Catullus, was a Roman poet whose statements on love and hate are considered the best lyrical poetry of ancient Rome.
Scholars have concluded from existing sources that Catullus was a contemporary of the statesmen Cicero, Pompey, and Caesar, whom he addresses in various ways in his poems. In 25 poems he speaks of his love for a woman he calls Lesbia. In other poems Catullus speaks sarcastically or contemptuously of Julius Caesar and other politicians.
Catullus' poems have been praised by modern poets, notably Ovid and Virgil.

Jakob Kolding is a Danish and German artist and stage designer.
He graduated from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts and lives and works in Berlin, Germany.

And Kolding's scenography transforms into three-dimensional collages, expanding throughout the space in which they inhabit, creating an entire world.
