Open Studios 2026: Art in direct dialogue at the Ravensberger Spinnerei

The exhibition of BBK-OWL opens on September 19, 2026, on the 4th floor of the Ravensberger Spinnerei, offering a concentrated look at contemporary art from Bielefeld. Five artists present their work as part of the Open Studios 2026 and explicitly invite conversation, lingering, and exploration.

An art experience with closeness and presence

Open studios have a unique exhibition atmosphere: they present art not as a distant end product but as a living process. Here, aesthetic experience unfolds right on site, in the tension between the observation of the work, the studio view, and personal exchange with the artists.

The special strength of the format

The presentation unites different artistic signatures and makes visible how diverse the visual arts are rooted in BBK-OWL. Artists include Sabine Kybarth, Christophe Carbenay, Hektor, Veronika Kracke, and Arzu Yildiz. This diversity particularly shapes the allure of the exhibition: painting, drawing, objects, installation, and printmaking enter into an open dialogue with the space.

Ravensberger Spinnerei as a resonance space

The venue itself contributes to the impact of the event. The Ravensberger Spinnerei, with its industrial character, gives the exhibition a dense spatial effect, sharpening perception through materiality, light, and architecture. The 4th floor thus becomes a place of artistic concentration where visitors can not only see images but also read attitudes, processes, and decisions.

BBK-OWL and the culture of the open studio

BBK-OWL, as a professional association of visual artists in East Westphalia-Lippe, is an important player in the regional art scene. The event series builds on a well-established practice of cultural education: art here is made accessible at a grassroots level while also being professionally demanding and close to contemporary issues.

What visitors can expect

Visitors to Open Studios 2026 will not experience an anonymous large exhibition, but a personal art appointment with immediate closeness to the positions of the exhibiting artists. The exhibition provides opportunities for discussion, new perspectives on contemporary art, and a lively insight into the working world of professional artists.

Conclusion: This exhibition promises an intense art experience between studio, encounter, and observation of work. Anyone wanting to experience contemporary art in its open, present form should definitely visit Open Studios 2026 at the Ravensberger Spinnerei live.
