Welcome to "Kunst in der Provinz. e.V."

The art society "Kunst in der Provinz e.V." unites artists from the entire northwestern area of Germany - presenting a tremendous variety of artistic skills. Exhibitions, symposiums and special events regularly take place where artists as well as people just interested in art have the opportunity to meet. "Kunst in der Provinz e.V." not only makes it possible to present the works of art but also is the impulse for exchange, discussion and interpretation of art.

Twenty-fifth jubilee
In 2005 "Kunst in der Provinz e.V." celebrated its 25th anniversary. Because of this event a book was published introducing 110 members - artists - of the society, each of them presenting one of her/his works of art.
Furthermore the managing committee worked out a very special project: The motto of the jubilee - "Visions" - shows that the art society is aware of the importance of future activities. So each member was asked to create her/his own work of art - having in mind a "vision". For this purpose they received a slab (wooden plate) size 25 cm x 25 cm, which would be the ground of the creation. After the works of art had been finished, all of them were put together and now formed a tremendous newly born work of art itself - presented in the district museum in Syke in December, when the jubilee of the art society was celebrated.
