Between Obersee and Nordsee: Landscape in Intense Colors

On October 14, 2026, the exhibition From Obersee to Nordsee featuring landscape paintings by the Dornberg painter Sigrun Stütten will open at the Dornberg community library. The exhibition opening invites visitors to view nature not just as a motif, but as an emotional space of experience.

Color Power and Landscape Memory

Stütten's painting is characterized by intense coloring. Her landscape images incorporate impressions from both the North and Baltic Seas as well as motifs from the Bielefeld area. Acrylic paints, vibrant color fields, and views of expanses, water, and coastal landscapes combine to create an accessible, sensual visual language.

A Self-Taught Artistic Development

Sigrun Stütten has been working as a painter since 1991 and has developed her skills self-taught. Her artistic practice has remained connected to landscape painting while also showing a joy in abstract attempts. Exhibitions in Bielefeld and the region have made her colorful works accessible to a broad audience.

Art Experience in the Library

The Dornberg community library transforms into an exhibition atmosphere, becoming a place of aesthetic experience. Between books and images, space is created for quiet contemplation of the works, for conversations, and for cultural education. The intense color effect of the paintings opens up different accesses: Some viewers discover the cheerful energy of a summer day within them, while others find the calming expanse of a coastal landscape.

Landscape as a Source of Calm and Energy

Stütten's images are rooted in personal experiences of nature and observations of beach, sea, forest, and light. The motifs retain concrete landscape references but condense them into atmospheric compositions. Thus arises a painting that mediates between representational memory and free color effect.

Conclusion: Seeing Colors, Experiencing Landscape Anew

The exhibition opening offers art enthusiasts an immediate art experience with color-intensive landscape painting from Bielefeld. Those who wish to experience the emotional power of color, natural motifs, and personal visual language should attend the kickoff at the Dornberg community library. The exhibition will remain accessible until January 14, 2027, during library opening hours.
