An Evening Between Beauty, Reflection, and Language Art at the Ostmannturm
With Made Up and Unadorned, the Ostmannturm in Bielefeld opens a literary-musical space on September 25, 2026, where word and sound combine for a fine contemplation of beauty, transience, and self-image. Beate Reker and Harald Kießlich guide the audience through an evening that intelligently intertwines intellect and sensuality.
A Literary Experience in the Spirit of Reflection
The reading starts where literature becomes particularly strong: in the precise gaze at human desires. Beauty here does not appear as a superficial motif but as a cultural theme with a long history. The evening questions ideals, fashion, body images, and the small social theaters of everyday life. This is precisely where its literary quality lies: The staging remains close to the texts while opening the gaze to larger societal narratives.
Word and Sound as Finely Tuned Dramaturgy
Beate Reker holds up the mirror while Harald Kießlich intensifies the atmosphere with the accordion. This combination of reading and music creates an intimate reading atmosphere where language art and sound do not stand alongside each other but support one another. The format promises not a loud spectacle but a concentrated cultural event with fine resonance.
The Ostmannturm as a Harmonious Venue for Literature
The Ostmannturm on Hanns-Bisegger-Straße 7 in Bielefeld offers a fitting setting for an evening that demands closeness and attention, thanks to its special location in the city center.
