Annual Exhibition of the Ruhrländischer Künstlerbund and the Werkkreis Bildender Künstler at the Forum for Art and Architecture

Sperm, knives, mustard, breasts, chili peppers – these are all “Spicy Stuff” at the Forum for Art & Architecture. If in previous years it was “The Small Format,” this time, the Ruhrländischer Künstlerbund and the Werkkreis Bildender Künstler contribute to the Light Weeks. The chain of thought: Partner country – Hungary – Paprika – Spicy – Exhibition.

28 artists participated. Some pulled out a work from their drawer that fit the theme, others took up the brush to artistically interpret the theme. Either way: You can tell from the exhibition that the preparation must have been quite cheerful at times.

Some artists apparently felt in a rare frivolous mood and seized the opportunity to now express this openly, indeed almost desirably, through their artwork. But there are also a number of painters, draftsmen, and sculptors who approach the matter with cutting seriousness.

Whom should one particularly highlight? Perhaps Petra Goebel, who captured a young man with an especially sharp gaze? Or Steffen Kindt, who has placed scantily clad girls on motorcycles in a Pop Art manner?
