BUGA23 Mushroom
Spinelli Park
Spinelliplatz 4
68259 Mannheim
More Information
In 2023 the American Spinelli Barracks and their 80 hectares of space will become a BUGA site with colorful gardens, a spacious landscaped area for strolling, looking and marveling. In the midst of it all, deliberately chosen architectural reminiscences such as the original 21,000-square-meter U-Halle, originally a military site.
The U-Hall is the architectural highlight on the Spinelli site and the heart of the Federal Horticultural Show Mannheim 2023. The original 21,000-square-meter U-shaped warehouse was partially dismantled to its supporting steel and concrete girder framework for BUGA 23 and reduced to approx. 13,000 square meters. Scaffold-like, permeable structures remained, which were planted with climbing plants, grasses and wildflowers. The inner courtyard of the U-Hall was also upgraded with generous water areas, trees, an old railroad car and lounge areas.
There is also the area “Mushroom” where you can discover different mushroom paper.

More Information
'Plant Fever' - exhibition at the Museum of Decorative Arts (Kunstgewerbemuseum) in Dresden. The German museum will present 'Pflanzenfieber. Botanik, Mensch, Design' – an enriched version of the original exhibition – in the beautiful site of Pillnitz Palace & Park.
Current debates - for example on climate justice, the ecological footprint or human consumer behavior - show: The relationship between humans and nature urgently needs to be rethought! The multi-year research and exhibition project PLANT FEVER, initiated by the curatorial duo Laura Drouets and Olivier Lacrouts, takes up this challenge and asks: Can design help us to reshape our relationship with the plant world and show us the potential of plants as true allies?
Parallel to the exhibition, the curatorial team was invited to conceive a plant-related workshop program that will take place during the summer. Entitled The School of Phyto-centred Design, the program will invite participants to explore the vegetal world from various experimental perspectives.

Notebooks, bullet journals and diaries: as containers of ephemera, they accompany our lives. They are filled bit by bit with experiences, remarkable things and memos and take on an important function as a structuring medium in the lives of many people. Often, individual works of art are created in the process, especially when artists keep diaries. The Klingspor Museum has impressive examples in its collection and also presents a variety of artistic expressions in this field, which were submitted as part of an open call for entries.
Opening on July 14th, 7 pm

Museum of Papermaking in Duszniki-Zdrój
st. Klodzka 42
57-340 Duszniki-Zdroj
More Information
The building of the Academy of Fine Arts in Lodz, 121 Wojska Polskiego Street, room 129 - the Paper Workshop, which for more than 20 years has been a place of experimentation and exploration of artistic expression in the widely understood medium of paper. Our workshop is based on tradition and knowledge of handmade paper techniques.
The education at the studio is based on an almost journeyman-like introduction of students to higher and higher circles of initiation, and the exercises are constructed in such a way as to imperceptibly enrich the workshop skills of young art students. In my opinion, this is the only way, because education should be based on understanding the potential of the medium, which in our case is paper.
Presented at the Museum of Papermaking, the exhibition is a combination of early program assumptions with an ever-growing curiosity about paper matter and its potential in signaling the problems of the modern world: ecology and raw material processing. The exhibition will feature a selection of works by undergraduate and graduate students and graduates, completed in recent years under the direction of Prof. Ewa Latkowska-Zychska and myself - Dr. Magdalena Soboń, Prof. of the university, curator and head of the Paper Studio.

On the occasion of the 27th Congress of the International Association of Hand Papermakers and Paper Artists (IAPMA) which is being held this year with Fides Linien as organizer in Dresden in the Dresden University of Fine Arts, the Kunstgwerbemuseum / Design Campus of the Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden (Dresden State Art Collections) is hosting a special Paper Art exhibition in the Riverside Palace of Pillnitz Palace in collaboration with IAPMA.
Artists bring paper to new life through a versatile approach with paper. In addition to its traditional use, paper carries and preserves stories or thoughts of individuals, societies or cultures. On display are artworks by 85 contemporary artists from 30 countries from all over the world, making it possible to experience paper as a living, responsive, artistic medium - as an independent art form - “Paper Art”. As an artistic medium, paper defies expectations and transforms itself into complex two- or three-dimensional entities, artists' books, jewelry, textiles and fashion or installations, indeed into environment and performance - an experience for all the senses.
Exhibition Jury:
Fides Linien, Ângela Barbour, Eva Maria Juras, Nicole Donnelly, Thomas A. Geisler, Nora Grunwald, Kerstin Stöver
Special thanks to The Xsabo Foundation, funding partner of the IAPMA Congress 2023 “PAPER ALIVE!” and the related Exhibition. With its financial support of the IAPMA Congress 2023, the congress-related “PAPER ALIVE!” Exhibition and its initiation of Minister Betty Amongi’s visit as Guest of Honour at the function, The Xsabo Foundation aims at furthering cooperation between Uganda, Germany (Saxony) and the wider world community.

Two years ago, to give life to her world inspired by the protists, Marie-laure Miazza experimented with a new technique: engraving on Tetra Pak. She soon developed her own personal approach. She creates small engraved elements in this material, allowing her to add complexity to the printed surface. Then, by playing with collage, superimposition
and retouching, she achieves unique experimental results.

More Information
'Ocean Windows' combines the delicate translucent textures of seaweed paper with the timeless appeal of traditional stained glass windows. Inspiration is drawn from the ornate rose windows that adorn European Gothic cathedrals, and the universal symbolism of the circle.
The seaweed paper artworks in 'Ocean Windows' meld organic materials with spiritual inspiration, tradition with innovation. Although not of the scale or grandeur of the Gothic rose windows they share their luminosity and circular design. Similarly, these ‘windows to the deep’ may allude to things that are ‘beneath the surface’ or usually hidden from view, but the ethereal evocative imagery promotes an initial visceral or intuitive response and invites contemplation and reflection.

"My paper artworks are all one-off pieces and can be organic, dynamic, quiet, powerful, informative, delicate, vibrant, conceptual, experimental or sculptural. The versatility of paper and the amount of possibilities it offers ignites a continuous flow of ideas in me to experiment with, to learn from and to push the boundaries of my creativity. Using and combining various techniques such as printmaking, digital processes, papercutting, paperfolding and bookbinding fills me with excitement."
