spring is coming …

Unfortunately it’s still cold, but so many things are peeking out of the ground or
showing buds that spring is finally making itself felt in the north.
And tonight’s full moon will hopefully herald warmer times.
But actually I have to be glad that the garden isn’t calling so urgently yet,
because I’m in the final spurt for BuchDruckKunst Hamburg, which will take place
on 5 – 7 April at the »Museum der Arbeit«, and as always there will be a lot of top-class art
to see (and to buy!).
I’m really looking forward to the exchange with my wonderful colleagues –
and I’ll bring some new works with me.

It’s my first exhibition date in 2024,
please find me under blauvogelbuch

And »save the date«: The »9th Biennale Buchkunst Weimar«
will take place on 7 + 8 December 2024 in the seminar building
of the Congresscentrum Neue Weimarhalle, Unesco-Platz 1, Weimar.

This will be my last exhibition date in 2024.
Further events (between April and December) have not yet all been decided.

Now the street lights are coming on again here in the north. They remain switched off in our village from June to the end of August, as it is light for so long and it is not worth switching them on before 11 pm (after this time we are a star park all year round).
As it happens very quickly that the nights get cold and it gets dark earlier than in the south,
every sunny day is a gift.
Then I look forward to concentrated work in my studio under the roof,
wind and rain (outside!) are companions to the peace and quiet of the autumn and winter retreat.

&
my
second
small
work-
catalogue!

I still have the cancellations of the last three years in my head,
but hope is rising that things will finally return to normal.
The »artbook berlin« in November 2022 was my first event without compulsory masks since 2019 – and BEAUTIFUL it was!
2021 – for the 8th Biennale of BuchKunst Weimar I was able to publish the small edition of the first catalogue booklet of my work –
or rather an atmospheric picture book …. :
»SAILING THE ART / CRAFT DIVIDE«.
In 2022 my picture book »SUN PRINTS« followed in the same format,
and is, like the postcards, available in my webshop at
wabi-sabi-works
but above all at my stand at exhibitions and fairs –
which can now take place (almost) “normally” again.
The reunion after the two years break at the Homburg Summer Academy in summer 2022
was a great pleasure, and there will be this lovely opportunity for exchange + experimentation again next summer.
