She explores the inner life, the core of the material in detail and expresses it in her objects through form and light. Approximation usually occurs through a structure, the meeting […]
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:
Study Center for Artists’ Legacies Saxony-Anhalt 2024-2026
The BBK Saxony-Anhalt has been observing the problems of dealing with artistic bequests and estates for many years.

ilka Leukefeld
Visually guided to the day before ‘becoming conscious’, we see wild creatures. a nature untouched by man with clear air, unsealed landscapes and waters without plastic particles. This place of idyllic thoughts harbors carefully guarded hopes like seeds that have become rare. The work is on display: “I/II There used to be a paradise (with […]
Katharina Stark
The “Sunset” group of works tells of the loss of lightness, of contaminated paradises and unsuccessful displacement. Destruction is immanent in the newly created – decay permeates the material. Kitschy elements are reminiscent of untroubled dreams of times gone by.
Katharina Günther
For me as a sculptor, the body/body as an emotional, physical and metaphysical space of experience is a central theme. How do we experience our body? Our skin provides us with protection, demarcation and at the same time an exchange with our surroundings. We are touchable and vulnerable. I work with wax. The material has […]

Andrea Flemming is interested in the levels of spatial perception that are linked to our sensations and experiences. She questions these conditions and structures and tries to develop them anew in a […]
