Network meeting BBKarien Saxony-Anhalt in Dessau on February 4, 2025
The aim of the meeting could be to develop a common strategy/concept for all BBKarien or to consider which criteria the BBKarien have or should have in common. How could a rotation of artists be organized? An exchange of experiences between the regional groups would also be great and motivating.

Korvin Reich
Several levels come together in his “flying objects”: Force fields, maps, elements from mathematics and physics. The perception of the spiritual world materializes. Free, intuitively set forms are surprisingly combined with fixed processes. Reich’s hand drawings are often mistaken for prints of computer graphics – calling his own perception into question. Further information about the […]

BBK workshop “Artist profiles on the BBK homepage” on October 22 and 29, 2024
The new BBK Saxony-Anhalt website was launched in April 2024. The site is optimally geared towards our uses. The design is appealing, the usability is flexible and the new tools bring it to life. One shortcoming of the new site is the extensive lack of artist profiles in the “Artist database” menu item(www.bbk-sachsenanhalt.de/kuenstlerinnen). All BBK […]

Friedrich Hensen
Friedrich Hensen works intermedially. He works in social, artistic and non-material spaces, which he summarizes with the socio-philosophical term “traversing the spheres”. This results in site-specific installations, performances and multimedia works consisting of texts, sounds and poetry or socio-cultural projects, such as the Bürgertheater Zeitz. Friedrich Hensen:
