Her paintings sparkle with power and imagination. Her numerous trips to exotic locations such as Polynesia and Micronesia, had a strong influence on her characters and pictorial stories. Numerous exhibitions and participations in international art fairs document her work. Natascha Mann studied painting in Stuttgart and Munich and received a fullbright scholarship at the university in Corvallis (USA). After that, she completed a full dance degree at the Folkwang School in Essen.

Paul Schwietzke
The exhibition of Natascha Mann will be accompanied by works of Paul Schwietzke under the exhibition titlel “A Fresh Breeze at the BER and other surreal ecstasies”.
“Immersing yourself in a work of art corresponds to a wonderfully uncomplicated and environmentally
friendly travel experience and is available at any time with some practice.” (Paul Schwietzke
This kind of independence from public transport, and the completion of prestigious construction projects is the painterly preoccupation of artist Paul Schwietzke, born in Düsseldorf in 1952. Like Gerhard Richter and Sigmar Polke, Schwietzke was one of the eight master students at K.O. Goetz. In contrast to his better-known colleagues, he turned to surrealism. Now, as the Surrealist art movement experiences a renaissance, Paul Schwietzke’s world of images appears strikingly up-to-date.

The artist’s subject is not limited to airports, his choice of motifs is extremely varied offering abstract works which examine the structure of surfaces as well as figurative and narrative works. As magical architect, Paul Schwietzke investigates the possibilities of human perception in all its facets and the way in which we use it to give meaning to what we perceive.
