Yoga Amongst Colors and Shapes
The idea behind the format is clear: the dynamic lines, intense colors, and open image spaces of Aatifi serve as an impulse for an hour of health, relaxation, and conscious perception. According to the announcement, participants will lay out their yoga mats in the middle of an exhibition space and experience art up close. This creates a rare event experience that brings together culture, movement, and mindfulness. ([bielefeld.jetzt](https://www.bielefeld.jetzt/node/1628540?utm_source=openai))
An Exhibition with a Personal Signature
"Aatifi - Maraka" is the overview exhibition of the Afghan-German artist Aatifi, who, according to his biography, was born in 1965 in Kandahar, has lived in Germany since 1995, and works in Bielefeld. The Kunstforum describes the exhibition as his first institutional solo exhibition in Bielefeld and refers to color-intensive paintings, paper works, and a curated presentation featuring works from several phases of creation. The title "Maraka" means a personal conversation, a free exchange, an encounter in Pashto. ([aatifi.de](https://www.aatifi.de/deutsch/biografie/?utm_source=openai))
