…special exhibition at Namu Bielefeld

The Natural History Museum is housed in a beautiful historic building, which, with its poorly insulated walls, presents a real challenge for historical collections. On the other hand, the exhibition there looks very authentic. The house breathes history. I really enjoyed the hours there around my exhibition, also thanks to the friendly team.

The coronavirus rules had just been relaxed a little and we were finally able to meet again without masks towards the end of the exhibition. In general, it was a pleasure to be able to visit a public event again. At the same time as my special exhibition, the museum was showing a varied collection on recycling and upcycling. There were many repurposed everyday objects to marvel at, especially from the post-war period.

What a contrast: in contrast to the practical objects, my works of art are absolute luxury. Because they are simply for contemplation and reflection.

It could not have been shown more clearly: Art and culture can only emerge and be truly promoted in peaceful times – in order to inspire us all and enrich our coexistence. Art and culture in all their diversity are indispensable.
