Dresdner Nachbarschaften | Biografieworkshop in Strehlen

I practise, therefore I am or: Swim with the waves

On 20 August, the Dresdner Nachbarschaften were in Strehlen for the biography workshop. It's all about contact - in the encounter with myself and in the experience with others. Calligraphy meets upcycling book art and after six hours I go home through the rain a different person than the one I came as. More is not possible in the best sense. Again, it's literally hands on and on top of that, ears and hearts open. What happened?

Summer walk with Goethe in Löbtau

"Liebliche Aue" - On 01 July Marlis Goethe led a tour through the Dresden neighbourhoods in Löbtau. Professionally, like a city guide, she keeps pictures and documents in transparencies ready to give us an insight into the village of yesteryear. For this we travel back to the 19th century. We start with Gottlob Werner, the geologist who gave Wernerstrasse its name. The geologist Werner, not Rötger Feldmann's leg-holding Werner. And did it work with the catchy tune?
