Dive into Georg Tuxhorn's Landscapes with Color
On October 9, 2026, the Museum Peter August Böckstiegel invites you to a creative workshop focused on the landscapes of the artist Georg Tuxhorn. In cooperation with the VHS Bielefeld, this three-hour art experience combines concentrated artwork observation with personal artistic practice.
Landscape as a Colorful Experience
The event introduces the special exhibition Georg Tuxhorn and the Second Generation of Bielefeld Modernism. The focus is on landscape paintings, whose special effect arises from color, structure, and the layered composition of the image. The exhibition atmosphere opens the view to a painting where landscape appears not only as a motif but as a sensually perceptible pictorial space.
Layers, Structures, and Spatial Depth
Inspired by Tuxhorn's works, participants will develop their own landscape step by step. Multiple layers of acrylic paint create depth and give the picture a lively, almost tangible surface. Different applications of color and structures will be experimented with, leading to individual compositions that arise from observation, memory, and artistic abstraction.
Art Education with Personal Practice
The art educator Maria Ferreira-Obenhaus will accompany the workshop. The combination of exhibition, discussion, and practical work makes central aspects of the aesthetic experience immediately accessible. Cultural education is understood as an active process: seeing, analyzing, experimenting, and creating interlink.
A Workshop at the Museum Peter August Böckstiegel
The Museum Peter August Böckstiegel in Werther combines contemporary exhibition practice with the authentic artist's house of Peter August Böckstiegel. The museum location creates a special setting for artwork observation and personal painting. Participants are asked to bring a smock or an old shirt; material costs are included in the course fee.
Participation costs 47 euros. The workshop begins on Friday, October 9, 2026, at 4:00 PM and ends at 7:00 PM. Registration is done through VHS Bielefeld; according to the event information, a waitlist registration is possible.
Conclusion: Seeing and Creating Landscapes Anew
This art experience is aimed at adults who want to not only observe Georg Tuxhorn's landscapes but also practically explore their painterly principles. The combination of exhibition, art-historical classification, and personal acrylic painting promises an intensive aesthetic experience. Those who want to experience color as space, material, and expression should attend this workshop live at the Museum Peter August Böckstiegel.
