Doris Lenkeit - Orte in der Bremer Überseestadt
In the organizer's words:
Places in Bremen's Überseestadt | 11 woodcuts with harbor motifs by Doris Lenkeit
The artist Doris Lenkeit, who died in 2018, was in search of her artistic expression throughout her life and explored many different creative techniques. Her proximity to the Weser and the port inspired the artist, who lived and worked in the west of Bremen, to translate her personal view of port facilities and harbor architecture into woodcuts.
The result is 11 prints which, with their clear, almost comic-like coloring, colorfully interpret the rather sober colors of the harbor architecture in reality. In this way, they create a positive and emotional atmosphere at various locations in Bremen's Überseestadt district.
The cycle of 11 woodcuts from her extensive estate was acquired in 2020 with the support of the Freundeskreis Doris Lenkeit, the Walle Advisory Board, Kultur vor Ort and the Kulturhaus Walle Brodelpott. The depictions of harbor motifs should thus remain in the Walle district and be made accessible to a broad public.
Exhibition: 15.5.24 - 2.8.24 | Free admission!
Opening hours: Tuesday to Sunday 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.
The Kulturhaus Walle Brodelpott presents the exhibition in cooperation with the Hafenmuseum Bremen on the first floor of the museum, Am Speicher XI 1.
