>JONGLAGE< describes a state of juggling with the balls of generational responsibility, for the children but also experiencing the knowledge of previous generations. The question of what we pass on, both knowingly and unknowingly. What epigenetics shape us and what do we have in our own hands?


Stefanie Demmel, Dieter Gilfert, Thomas Kober in Chemnitz

We have pursued this phenomenon with the call for entries “Digital Graphics on Paper” for a separate exhibition. Digital graphic work without the resistance of manual techniques during […]


Cathleen Meier in Magdeburg

Exhibition‘Light is only the dust – Sculpture‘ Cathleen aims her figures straight into my heart. They are true, these portraits, just as this artist and her work have always been.

Laura Baginski

Reneé Reichenbach in Halle (Saale)

Interplay of surface and form Clay – the “potter’s earth” – is a fascinating, soft material that reacts to the pressure of the shaping hand as well as to the other basic elements: air, water and fire.

At the same time, I work with parchment – […]
