Open Studios 2026: Art in the Vibrant Space of the Ravensberger Spinnerei
The Open Studios 2026 at BBK-OWL will open on September 20, 2026, on the 4th floor of the Ravensberger Spinnerei, offering an art experience that blurs the lines between observing works, studio atmosphere, and direct interaction with the artists. Five members of BBK-OWL will showcase their works, inviting conversation, lingering, and discovery.
A House with Artistic Memory
The Ravensberger Spinnerei is one of the historically significant places in Bielefeld. In this industrially shaped ensemble, a productive dialogue has been taking place for years between architecture, contemporary art, and cultural education. Particularly on the 4th floor, a unique spatial effect unfolds: focused, open, close to the process. The exhibition situation makes it clear how much painting, drawing, printmaking, and mixed media gain presence in direct exchange with the audience.
Five Positions, a Shared Resonance Space
Works by Sabine Kybarth, Christophe Carbenay, Hektor, Veronika Kracke, and Arzu Yildiz will be on display. The event thrives on the diversity of individual styles and the curated neighborhood of different visual languages. The artists will be present, making this exhibition particularly an open form of art education. Visitors will experience not just finished works, but also thought processes, material choices, and the aesthetic experience of the creative process.
Open Studios as Art Education
The Open Studios in Bielefeld have stood for direct access to visual arts since 1991. The format combines exhibition, studio visits, and cultural participation. Visitors here encounter not a distant museum presentation but a vibrant workshop of contemporary art. This is precisely where the strength of this event series lies: it lowers the threshold to art while deepening the understanding of artistic practice, materiality, and individual image discovery.
Atmosphere that Lasts
The 4th floor of the Ravensberger Spinnerei is suitable for a concentrated yet open encounter with art. Light, spaces, and industrial history create a framework that supports the works in a special way. For art enthusiasts, a visit thus becomes one that goes beyond mere observation: a tour through positions, attitudes, and artistic styles that can be directly accessed through conversation.
Conclusion: The Open Studios 2026 at BBK-OWL promise an inspiring exhibition with personal closeness to the artists, strong artistic positions, and a special exhibition atmosphere in the heart of Bielefeld. Anyone wanting to experience contemporary art beyond traditional museum formats should definitely attend this event live.
