Creative wood art meets music: sculpture symposium started in Steinach!
Steinach, Deutschland - In the picturesque Steinach, the traditional sculpture symposium has started this week, an event that not only inspires art lovers, but also impressively brings out the creativity of the region. The event will take place this year in the last Juni week in the castle courtyard of Steinach and convinces with an innovative approach: the artists have set themselves up to create elven drops and figures with an electric drive from oak tribes. A very special highlight is the musical accompaniment by the ensemble "Vierklang" of the Sonneberg music school. The talented musicians Juliane Hoffmann, Aaron Heinrich and Roland Brehm ensured a pleasant atmosphere right at the beginning of the symposium with their gentle sounds before the chainsaws sounded the scenery. In the course of the event, the musical ensemble is even expanded by a trio to a quintet, which will give the symposium an even more festive note, how [Insüüringen] (https://www.insuedthueringen.de/inhalt.symposium-in-steinach-wo-wo---eichen-eichen-e-e-drewen-ie reported.
The sculpture symposium was launched in 2006 by Volker Sesselmann, a local wood sculptor, and has since developed as a popular and permanently established event in the region's event calendar. In recent years it has been shown that this event attracts more and more interested visitors who want to look over the shoulder of the artists and talk them out. It is worth it, because up to six talented sculptors work with wood and stone for a week and create impressive works of art.
Experience art and community
During the symposium, visitors not only have the opportunity to experience the emergence of the works of art up close, but can also exchange ideas with the artists. This interaction between the audience and artists is in the foreground and is an important part of the entire event. Many of the created works of art from previous symposia are already distributed in the urban area and can be admired in public buildings and in striking places. Particularly noteworthy is the Christmas crib with life -size figures made in 2011 and 2012 and are based on templates from the traditional Marolin® company. The year-round presence of this works of art enriches the cityscape and attracts numerous visitors how the official side of Steinach makes clear: [Steinach Thuringia] (https://www.steinach-thueringen.de/ page/538157/steinacher-bildhauer-ssymposium.html).The sculpture symposium in Steinach is not only a shop window for the regional art scene, but also a place of encounter and exchange. While a group of artists works with a lot of skill and artistic sensitivity, the castle courtyard turns into a place of creating and enjoyment. The mixture of art and music ensures that the symposium becomes an unforgettable experience for everyone.
A look outside the box
Formats similar are also available elsewhere, such as in the artist village of Worpswede. There is a sculpture symposium between August 18 and September 8, which is under the motto "Light - Form - Shadow". Here 5 to 7 sculptors will work in the garden of the Altes Rathaus gallery and the anniversary celebration for the 150th birthday of the important sculptor Bernhard Hoetger. Here, too, the direct encounter between artists and the audience is of central importance, which makes the symposium a unique experience for those interested in art, as the tourism page of Worpswede informs: Worpswede Touristik.
Overall, it can be seen that sculpture symposia not only produce creative stone and woodwork, but also make a significant contribution to the community and for cultural exchange. Art connects, creates encounters and enriches our cities in a variety of ways.
