Haut und Kunst

Colorful structures, harsh contrasts, and fine nuances characterize the abstract photographs of Friedrich A. Bahmer. Only upon closer inspection do the images reveal their secret: they are edited photographs and microscopic images of human skin. With his works, Friedrich A. Bahmer opens new perspectives on the largest organ of the human body. Even pathological changes take on an aesthetic dimension. The artist's fascination with the skin is not coincidental: Friedrich A. Bahmer was the chief physician of the dermatology clinic at Klinikum Bremen-Mitte for many years.

Alexander von Reiswitz: Catching Strangers - mit Zsuzsa Bank, Britta Boerdner und Marjana Gaponenko

The Berlin photographer Alexander von Reiswitz began in 2005 to approach strangers on the street and assemble them into a family, so that he could photograph them as if they actually were. Over the course of fifteen years, he continued this project at irregular intervals in numerous countries and cultures.
In the bilingual photo book "Catching Strangers" (Hatje Cantz), alongside his black and white images, there are 22 texts by renowned contemporary authors, who have created a variety of stories in response to the themes of family, chance, and fate, inspired by individual images. Zsuzsa Bank, Britta Boerdner, and Marjana Gaponenko will present their texts, interviewed by moderator Freddy Langer (FAZ).
Also in conversation: photographer Alexander von Reiswitz and Florian Koch, who has overseen the literary part of this multifaceted project for the last 20 years. Numerous photographs will be projected onto the screen throughout the evening.

Kunst trifft Pedale - Radtour zu unerwarteten Meisterwerken

Discover Fürth on a fascinating bike tour where the tongue-in-cheek question is allowed: Is it art or can it go? Because whether a work of art, a building, or even a landscape is beautiful is, as is well known, in the eye of the beholder. The tour begins at the Tourist Information in the main train station and passes the impressive Centaur Fountain, the City Park, and the Uferstadt to unexpected works of art along the Pegnitz. Embark on a ride that connects architecture and nature – from Classicism to Street Art, exciting and varied! The endpoint is in the old town at St. Michael's Church.

A traffic-safe bicycle must be brought. A helmet is recommended.

Blick durch das "Fenster in die Vergangenheit"

Even if the title might suggest otherwise: dry numbers and boring facts have no chance in the city tour "Fenster in die Vergangenheit." Because tour guide Brunhilde Kohls brings history around the Old Market Square to life through anecdotes during this walk.

This journey through time into the very early Gütersloh shows that the Old Market Square is not only the origin of the city of Gütersloh but also an important archaeological and historical source. The tour covers topics such as school and jurisdiction, among others. Of course, the Apostle Church is also part of the tour. Here, it is about the architects and artists who were involved in the construction and decoration of the church. The myths and legends surrounding the church are also touched upon. Brunhilde Kohls addresses burial culture through the remains of the historical cemetery walls.

Another highlight is the visit to the house at Old Market Square 11, one of the oldest buildings in Gütersloh. Here, in 2016, the post holes of a building from the 12th century were uncovered. In the basement of the building, not only can these post traces be viewed, but also a showcase with medieval ceramic shards, animal bones, horse teeth, and fragments of old clay pipes.

The approximately 2.5-hour-long, very varied city tour begins at the meeting point on the lawn at the Apostle Church.

Die Bahnhofstraße - "Shanghai an der Lahn" vom Boulevard zum Rotlichtviertel

The Bahnhofstraße, once a magnificent boulevard with grand hotels and businesses, turned into a red-light district with a questionable reputation after 1945. Temptation lurked everywhere and teased sin. Legendary were the bars and dives where especially on "Pay Day," the payday of the GIs stationed in Gießen, it often turned into a criminal affair with often stark reality, earning Gießen the reputation of a "Shanghai on the Lahn." The path leads past well-known and forgotten (crime) scenes of pleasure and vice, crime and razor-sharp punishment, amusement and human tragedy. Suitable for participants aged 16 and over.

No cancellation & refund possible.

Street Art in Gießen - Wandmalerei zwischen Traum und Realität

After three street art festivals from 2017 to 2019, the city of Gießen has a respectable open-air art gallery. The RIVER TALES project started in 2012 at the Lahn bridges, initiated and organized by the Gießen collective 3Steps. Since then, international artists have left their individual mural paintings. Many are somewhat hidden, as the available walls are located in side streets and courtyards. This walk also incorporates some older wall paintings and tells the significance of old street names.

No cancellations & refunds possible.

Ich sehe was, was du nicht siehst …

Gerhard Schöne loves change and has remained true to himself and his audience for 40 years now. He is one of the very few from the once proud and large group of East German singer-songwriters whose productivity and popularity have remained unbroken even after 1990. This is evidenced not only by 25 albums but especially by the multitude of annual concerts in East, West, and in the center. They have been and are the greatest experience – for both young and older children alike.
The songs of Gerhard Schöne's new solo evening follow the thought of a well-known children's game. What do I see that you do not see? What do you discover that I do not know? What jumps right out at you? What is hidden and wants to be lovingly discovered? Why can't I see the forest for the trees? When does a change of perspective help? Beautiful songs from a period of about 40 years invite you to look at the familiar in a new way, to take off blinders, and to show each other uncharted territory.
In his solo concerts, the singer-songwriter spreads the whole spectrum of his songwriting: he presents new songs, sings many of his own classics, and he is always sure to respond to the wishes of his audience.

Workshop Streetphotography

On the street, life takes place – no matter if in a small, quiet city like Erlangen or a bustling metropolis of this world.
Images from the street capture life and allow our fellow humans to see the world through our eyes. It is no coincidence that street photography is considered the high art of documentary photography. However, it is not always easy to capture the "decisive moment" on the street: the fleetingness of the moment, the fear of invading privacy, poor lighting, and many other factors create hurdles.
But: "No need to be anxious, trying is better than studying. You just have to do it and not think too much about it," says Rainer Windhorst, a freelance photographer for Erlanger and Nürnberger Nachrichten for a quarter of a century.
Thus, in our practical workshop, we want to proceed in three steps: After an introductory part with useful tips and tricks on the right equipment, meaningful composition, and some legal aspects, we will head out onto the street and actively search for subjects.

Afterward, we will evaluate and discuss the exciting results together with all workshop participants. Our cooperation partner for this seminar, the Erlanger Nachrichten, will publish the best images from the workshop the following week, provided we have the photographers' consent.
All participants are asked to bring their own camera, and feel free to bring a smartphone if that is their tool of choice.

On the way with the camera: Photography is more than just capturing, from snapping to photographing.

The professional photographer, filmmaker, and world traveler shares and narrates in his new seminar "Landschaft, Natur und Tiere" how to capture atmospheric landscapes and the fascination of nature while traveling with cameras. Smartphone photography will also be briefly discussed.
