Heinrich Heine. Neu eingebunden

In the organizer's words:

"Heinrich Heine. Newly integrated." is the title of the new special exhibition at the Heine Institute. The new exhibition marks the official reopening of the Heine Institute's special exhibition space following successful renovation work.
Heine enthusiast Dr. Dietmar Meyersiek has been collecting Heine first editions for more than 50 years and has amassed a large number of rarities in the process. But that's not all: the Heine works in his collection are rebound in a special way. Artful book slipcases, exclusively designed and produced, enhance the historical editions.

The exhibition presents a selection of the precious Heine original editions and valuable book art objects, which were created in collaboration between the collector, the designer couple Prof. Helfried and Prof. Monika Hagenberg and the Mergemeier bookbindery.
At the vernissage on Sunday, May 31, 3 p.m., Heine aficionado Dr. Dietmar Meyersiek and curators Dr. Sabine Brenner-Wilczek and Nora Schön will explain the exhibition.

As an accompanying program, Dr. Sabine Brenner-Wilczek, Director of the Heine Institute and Schumann House, and bookbinder Ulrike Meysemeyer will give a joint tour of the new special exhibition on Thursday, 18 June at 6 pm . Families can learn the art of Japanese bookbinding on Saturday, June 27, at 2 p.m. at the Heine Institute. The special exhibition will be on display until August 30.
