„War cuts Faces, War cuts Lives“
peace gallery
So far, the Peace Gallery has welcomed many international artists who have exhibited their sculptures, photos and paintings on numerous exciting topics.
The cooperation with the “Ghandi Information Centre” has made it possible to honour both personalities and themes of the peace movement.
The place, the Peace Gallery, is defined: Art is free. In this context, the artists have a lot of freedom in their exhibitions.
The crimes of National Socialism against human existence, its destruction and extermination are very present. Therefore love and respect for life, for others, must be guarded and protected. This must be reflected in the Peace Gallery. We must not be satisfied with photographing and documenting violence and cruelty. A certain irritation and refraction is necessary for our seeing and our perception of our environment.
