PAST EXHIBITIONS
I Am A Drinnie
In a world where digital technologies permeate and dominate our everyday lives, a quiet but ever-increasing countermovement is growing – across all generations: more and more people are consciously choosing a life with less screen time and more depth, more analog experience. What may initially seem like nostalgia is in truth an expression of social change.
A small house built specifically for this exhibition and over 100 works of art attracted many art fans.

What is a good picture? – A good picture touches you, it gets under your skin, it sticks to your memory. There are pictures that almost everyone knows. No matter whether you have already dealt with photography and its history or not – some images are in the visual memory of the 21st Century, firmly anchored as contemporary documents.

CITY, COUNTRY, CONNECTIVITY
October 9, 2022 to November 30, 2022
The second exhibition of the association “Kunst für Angeln e.V.” together with the collection Roosen-Trinks, ran from 9.10.2022 to 30.11.2022, and dealt with the reference systems of city and country. Topics such as “art and artificiality”, “deceleration and deceleration, “digitality and sustainability” were dealt with by the participating artists.
The group exhibition took a multi-perspective look at the exhibition theme and showed very different works, so that a multifaceted overall picture has emerged.
The interest of the public and the media was great, another indication that a cultural institution like KUNST FÜR ANGELN was long wanted in the region. The participation in the (almost) daily art tours was accordingly lively.

PORTRAITS – MASKS – VEILS
APRIL 4, 2022 TILL MAY 30, 2022
»The subject of the first exhibition is as topical as it is timeless: Masks and People. A great dream comes true for the region and for Ingrid Roosen-Trinks. A dream that lives out the vitality of art and human encounter. Because Ingrid Roosen-Trinks wants to inspire and move people: her exhibitions and art events are becoming the region’s new cultural meeting place – what a gain for Schleswig-Holstein!«
