Photography as an Invitation to Observe Closely

With the opening of Seeing Beauty, a photo exhibition opens in the Zionskirche Bethel that sharpens the gaze for the inconspicuous. Werner Marquart leads with his works through buildings, situations, and those moments in which the ordinary suddenly shines anew. The exhibition starts on August 23, 2026 at 5:00 PM in Bielefeld-Bethel. ([bielefeld.jetzt](https://www.bielefeld.jetzt/node/1999391))

An Art Experience Between Architecture, Everyday Life, and Perception

Marquart's photographs do not rely on effect but on concentration. They open the space for a contemplation of the work, where light, lines, surfaces, and spatial tension become the main subjects. The approach refers to precise, observant photography that understands beauty not as decoration but as an attitude. The exhibition is viewable until March 14 during the regular opening hours of the community center and by request. ([bielefeld.jetzt](https://www.bielefeld.jetzt/node/1999391))

Opening with Introduction and Music

At the opening, Pastor Jutta Beldermann will give the introductory lecture, Werner Marquart will present his works, and Vsevolod Khuotarinen will accompany the opening on the accordion. Afterward, the program invites to a tour, conversation, and a small snack. This creates an exhibition atmosphere that connects art education, encounter, and aesthetic experience.
