In 1992 Ina Fekken graduated as an autonomous visual artist from the Minerva Academy in Groningen. Prior to this study, she completed a degree in environmental science at the Higher Agricultural School. This has determined the underlying theme in her work. The inescapable influence that humans have on nature/environment is her central motif. Nowadays, Ina works almost exclusively with paper.

GRAZifikation 2024 FREMDE (the / the / that)
It is about the artistic examination of the unfamiliar and the different. The exploration of what the foreign does to us, of being attracted or deterred. Of the longing for the foreign, the respect for it or even the fear. Dealing with foreign cultures is a highly topical subject, especially when they come to us. Conversely, many people like to travel in order to get to know foreign cultures.
With this motto, the @KunstvereinGRAZ invites you to an artistic exploration.
Many thanks to the curators: Renate Christin and Barbara Gaukler
On display is Tanja Major's www.fungi-paper.de Mykobütten Scleroderma.

Margaret Griffith’s artmaking practice is primarily concerned with the duality and contradictory implications of architectural boundaries found throughout the urban built environment. The artist’s sculptures, installations, and works on paper deconstruct the shapes of physical barriers erected against perceived external threats – wrought-iron residential gates, chain-link fences, metal grates employed in hostile architecture – and re-invents their patterns in materials that betray their inherent fragility.
Responding in part to the isolation and interpersonal suspicion that permeate modern American culture, works comprised of multiple overlapping layers of cut paper sheets emphasize the futility and impermanence of the physical and psychological barriers constructed between people. Their gridded patterns are slightly irregular, creating unexpected interference patterns that provoke a sensation of unease and disorientation. Another group of works, inspired by textile patterns, investigates the role of clothing in obscuring and protecting the body, as well asits capacity to serve as an indicator of wealth, privilege, and status. Perforated sheets of paper are inlaid with painted paper circles to create a unified plane, projecting a pretense of sturdiness and stability onto their porous and delicate forms.
Margaret Griffith received her BFA in painting from Maryland Institute College of Art and her MFA in sculpture from Cranbrook Academy of Art. She has been included in numerous solo and group exhibitions throughout the United States and internationally, and her work has been exhibited at such institutions as the Craft Contemporary, Weatherspoon Art Museum, Long Beach Museum of Art, and Armory Center for the Arts. Her work has been reviewed in Artillery Magazine, ArtScene, and the Los Angeles Times, among others.

While his brilliant exhibition in Bayreuth Town Hall is being set up, the artist, who lives in Austria, gives us a glimpse of his latest exhibition. His works are explosions of color and appear delicate yet very powerful. At first glance, you are confronted with the complexity of the designs. The works made of paper and cardboard are almost confusing. The works of art cannot be taken in quickly. At the same time, they attract the eye in such a way that you feel invited to linger longer.

Paper on Skin™ is a biennial wearable art award requiring artists to create a wearable garment made from at least 80% paper. First held in 2012, Paper on Skin™ draws on the papermaking heritage of the North-West coast of Tasmania and has since grown to become an international event.

The exhibition at the Devonport Regional Gallery showcases all thirty-three garments by the 2024 finalists. Also on display is a piece by James Dimech representing the Lucca Biennale Cartasia. This is part of a cultural exchange between Paper on Skin™ and the Biennale whereby Tasmanian artist Leonie Oakes also had a work exhibited in Lucca during their festival.

New York, NY 10011
Healthy Materials Lab presents Regeneration of Flax: Linseed, Linen, Shive, & Oil at the Arnold and Sheila Aronson Galleries on 5th Avenue in NYC. The exhibition will display the breadth of applications of products from the flax plant and encourage increased regional development of flax fiber in North America. Through the diversity of innovative designs, historic and current, our goal is to reconnect designers with the lifecycle of their materials.
Flax has been used for centuries for ropemaking, as a food source, and for textiles. It is a bio-based replacement for petrochemical-based products. The entire flax plant (Linum Usitatissimum) can be utilized, leading to zero-waste, healthier materials for textiles, finishes, paints, insulation and flooring. Through showcasing photography, material samples, written text, diagrams, and artwork, the exhibit will display the flax plant through its life cycle, in various applications, and ultimately its compostability.
Exhibitors include: DumoLab Research at the University of Pennsylvania, Michelle Wilson, Danielle Burke, Cassie Quinn & More!
Currently, fiber flax is primarily grown in Western Europe. Our exhibition will bring discourse to revitalization efforts of flax for linen textile production in North America. Additionally, the exhibition will highlight and display the use of linseed oil and shive byproducts for the built environment.
In response to the current climate crisis, our exhibition and related public programming will contribute to the crucial discussion concerning carbon sequestration, regional economies, and the ongoing shift towards healthier, bio-based materials.
We invite all to attend and register for the opening panel discussion and reception on October 7 at 5pm and invite The New School community to a spinning workshop on October 30 at 3pm.

Ina Fekken found a moving photo from the past, before the land consolidation took place and converted it into a computer drawing. It was then laser cut from corrugated cardboard, making the underlying layer visible.
Art| Landscape | Westerwolde
Artists have been inviting people for centuries to see our country through their eyes, in beauty, wonder and sometimes confusion. The MOW | Museum Westerwolde has been collecting works of art with a connection to its own region for half a century, from realistic to abstract and from old to new. Older works show us a world that we sometimes barely recognize, with agricultural workers in the fields, dirt roads and horse and cart. Newer works play with the structures and colors of the land or with special properties such as the wind that gains strength over the vast land. Recently, concerns about a rapidly changing environment have been creeping into work.
Historical and contemporary art
In this exhibition, the museum combines (some of it historical) pieces from its own collection and those of others with works by contemporary artists. More than 160 (!) artists responded to a call for contemporary artists to be inspired by the Westerwold countryside. The works (all 40 x 40 cm) will show a continuous mosaic on the walls of the museum.

Tanja Major's handmade mushroom paper works, also known as 'Mykobütten', represent an innovative way of papermaking as they are made almost entirely from mushrooms and can therefore be considered compostable or sustainable art that can be returned to nature.
The creation of handmade artworks from mushrooms and plant pulp, which not only represent paper but also act as carriers of our stories and visions, is the result of a complex process based on scientific principles and creative application. These works are a tribute to the beauty of nature, the art of craftsmanship and the immeasurable creativity of the human spirit.

The exhibition "Diva Sativa" shows the results of the summer paper workshop in the Kunstraum Testorf. IAPMA members from Latvia, the USA and Germany met to work together with hemp, to gain new insights into the creative possibilities of this exciting fiber and to exchange ideas. "Diva" seems quite fitting, as the hemp fiber always reveals surprising properties. The exhibition will be completed by works made from local paper fibers.

Gallery Curva Pura
Via Giuseppe Acerbi, 1
00154 Roma RM
The exhibition includes a selection of the artist's latest works, designed for a site-specific intervention at Curva Pura.
The concepts of evolution and transformation are the basis of her research, both on a conceptual and formal level. The ongoing study and documentation of processes linked to the transformation of matter - plant fibres and naturally derived colours - are the main focus of creativity; this practice leads the artist to confront the unpredictability of outcomes and to reflect on the relativity of time and space in which matter is transforming.
In this exhibition, the many works are like so many variations of the same subject; they cohabit, interweaving an enthralling and secret plot in space. Working with simple materials, paper, canvas and colours that she obtains from plants or other natural elements, the artist also recovers a technical - but never rigid - dimension of art making that gives her work a total cosmic harmony. Technical research proceeds by the degrees of the logical-intellectual process, and Virginia proceeds together on the formal and aesthetic levels. The research into materials that she has been carrying out for years has led her to experiment with paper and its transformations (which, despite her explorations of other materials, remains her favourite medium) and colour of natural derivation, both characterised by fragility and ephemeral immanence in space and time."

Kunststation Kleinsassen
An der Milseburg 2
36145 Hofbieber-Kleinsassen
0049 6657 8002
As part of the Main-Kinzig Fulda 2024 cultural summer, the Kleinsassen art station is presenting masterpieces made of paper in its exhibition halls: cut, folded and moulded.
What this material can withstand and achieve in terms of design never ceases to amaze. For a long time - until the end of the 19th century - paper served mainly as a carrier of information and was used for drawing, watercolouring and printing. Silhouettes and folding techniques had a long tradition in China and Japan and became increasingly popular in Europe. It was only later, and especially since the 1960s, that artists discovered paper as an independent artistic medium for their work.
Paper is a very pliable material that can be reached almost anywhere: flexible, light and sometimes surprisingly stable, voluminous through crumpling, creasing, folding and "moulding". There are many variations in thickness and surface texture, depending on the fibres used and the manufacturing process. Paper can be embossed and even sculpted. Works of art with incredibly narrow webs are created - torn or cut, with realistic depictions or in a reduced, conceptual design language. Artful folding and creasing create reliefs, and life-size figures can be formed from delicate Japanese papers. Some artists use new paper, others "recycle" used or printed paper. A particular attraction for some artists is that they produce their own paper and can experiment in detail, from preparing the fibre pulp to drawing and designing. Paper can be made transparent, relief-like or even fully sculptural, coloured with individual pigments and penetrated in a painterly way in pulp painting.

The Paper Academy
Stæremosen 8
3250 Gilleleje
In the summer of 2024, The Paper Academy, Denmark, welcomes you to the exhibition Eternal Paper, where 20 international artists, mainly from the USA, present artworks made with paper. The exhibition is curated by Helen Frerick, American artist, curator and founder of the art institution Pyramid Atlantic, Maryland, USA.
Eternal Paper was exhibited at the University of Maryland Global Campus, USA, from October 2023 to May 2024 and can now be experienced in the Paper Academy’s gallery in Gilleleje in a slightly different form.
Artists who have worked for many years with handmade paper, nature's fibers and water, to express themselves through art, have harboured experience and expertise within themselves and understand that they, as temporary containers of this knowledge, have a responsibility to provide this on to future generations. Implicit in their work is something larger: a historical organism of research, travel, collaboration and exchange that preserves paper forever.
A catalogue has been published in connection with the exhibition.
