"Culture Minister of Switzerland"
Dominik Riedo was elected " Culture Minister of Switzerland" from 25 candidates by means of an internet vote advertised by cultural associations and organizations (the "term of office" lasted from September 2007 to September 2009). The NZZ described a debate among the candidates at a public hearing in the Rote Fabrik as the “end of subversivity”. The Basler Zeitung, on the other hand, admits Riedo as "Minister of Culture" to Verve: "... the swirling Riedo, who sometimes speaks in turbulence". The attention as “Minister of Culture” is quite high in some specific areas, for example Riedo was asked about his “office” on BBC Radio 3 . In November 2008 , the WOZ was critical of him .
