V. MKH-Biennale: Eröffnung am 01.09. um 11:00 in der Martinikirche
Three Romanian artists will join three BBK Harz artists in September for the fifth MKH-Biennale as part of the 25th anniversary of the county partnership between the Romanian county of Bistrița-Năsăud (Transylvania) and the county of Harz.
We have been holding the MKH-Biennale in Halberstadt since 2014. It is Saxony-Anhalt’s first art biennale and focusses on environmental protection, climate change and social issues. We also attach great importance to international exchange between artists.
The six artists will gather in Halberstadt in September 2024 for a symposium and to work together on new works of art in the Martinikirche. Leukefeld, initiator of the MKH Biennale and curator of the I. and V. MKH-Biennales, will introduce the symposium artists at the opening.
The participating artists are: Mariana Moldovan (R), painting; Andreea Gal (R), poetry; Andreea Mikhalka (R), drawing; Sabine Riemenschneider (Wernigerode), woodcuts; Kornelia Thümmel (Blankenburg), sculptor; ilka Leukefeld (Halberstadt), installation art.
The opening will take place together with the State Secretary for Art and Culture of Saxony-Anhalt, Dr Sebastian Putz, the Mayor of Halberstadt Daniel Szarata and the Chairman of the Kuratorium Stadtkultur Halberstadt e.V., Dr. med. Frank Aedtner, on 1 September 2024 at 11am in the Martinikirche.
