To Remember

In 2022, three bewegter-wind artists died who were an enrichment for several wind art festivals:

Dr Marion Baumann exhibited "Anemomobile" at AIR condition(s) in Wolfhagen in 2012. In 2014 she was part of "between" in Söhrewald with the installation "between media". In 2018, Marion installed the much-visited installation "Die vermessene Seele" on Dörnberg as a contribution to "clouds/Wolken". She was a cheerful, dedicated person and very fond of the wind with all its aspects.

Robin Kurka was one of the exhibiting artists at " turbulences" in 2010 with the work "Dancer Group" in Sachsenhausen. His dancers were repeatedly nominated for the audience award. Robin was a welcomed guest at the artists' meetings, who was a fantastic cook.

Hannah Streefkerk installed many hundreds of pompoentjes at the " Turbulences" in Frankenberg in 2010 and received an honourable mention from the jury. In 2014 she installed hovering leaves in Söhrewald for "between". This delicate, almost inconspicuous work "To Remember" reached right to the heart of the visitors and the jury for its visualisation of this state between becoming and passing away. It was awarded the 1st prize.

It is so sad that these wonderful artists had to die so early. We think fondly of the lively exchanges and keep them in good memory.
