Woman Life Freedom

with 3 Iranian artists

The exhibition "Woman Life Freedom" gives the people on the streets of Iran a voice and a moment to be seen. It is a solidarity with the Iranians living in exile and all those who are fighting for a free and democratic life in their home country.

The exhibiting artists are Samira Jamali (photography), Marzie Amini (painting) and Bersabeh Farahani (collage and installation). Jamali works as a photographer in the Association for International Forest Art, Darmstadt and is showing pictures in this exhibition that make the beauty of Iran visible. In her paintings, Amini deals with the inner turmoil of women, the emotional challenge of wanting to be and yet not being able to be. Farahani's works confront the viewer with the faces of people who have been imprisoned, executed and died as a result of torture. The installations show journalists, artists, students, women and men who have been arrested for demonstrating in the streets or for being near a demonstration, or simply for speaking out, singing, writing, dancing.

Christmas Art Market

Redesigned at short notice due to the current Corona regulations

Eberstadt artists and friends exhibit large and small works of art. In addition to regional landscape painting, you can find abstract art using various techniques (acrylic painting, printing, geliprint, collages, etc.) as well as sculptures and art cards.

Due to the current Corona regulation, we are unfortunately not able to implement the Christmas art market in the originally planned form. That's why we created a new format at short notice and designed a shop window art market.

We hope and wish that this form of art presentation will enrich your Christmas joy.

Short video for "The Sound of Colors"

Ulrike E Sticher and Manuel Steinhoff

“The Sound of Colors” is an exhibition of object images and a room-filling, walk-in installation by the artist Ulrike E Sticher, which enter into a dialogue in the invisible space with sounds composed by the musician Manuel Steinhoff. The exhibition can still be seen until November 24, 2021.

Guided by questions like “How does a color sound?” “What sound could it have?” Manuel Steinhoff and Ulrike E Sticher set out to sound out three colors and find the appropriate sounds. The exhibition takes visitors into a unique color and sound experience for seeing and hearing.

The creation process up to the presentation of the impressive result was accompanied by the photographer and filmmaker Sergej Falk.
