Events at castles and palaces

The exhibition by the Münsterland-based artist duo moves from the surface into the space. The aesthetic paintings and drawings by Marius Stutte and the voluminous installations and sculptures by Julia Arztmann initially create an unusual picture: Stutte's large-scale works in pastel-coloured acrylic are juxtaposed with Arztmann's small watercolour drawings, which are sometimes reminiscent of zoological-scientific animal illustrations. Conversely, Arztmann's supernatural marvellous creatures, made from various everyday objects, seem to communicate with Stutte's delicate, sweeping drawings. Together in one room, the works enter into a surprising dialogue: different sizes, textures and dimensions, artistic seriousness and humour collide. The experience of harmony and tension at the same time makes for a captivating exhibition experience.

On this cool 5-day course, you will build your own lightsaber. Of course, it should also light up and make noises. An electrician will help you with the production and installation of the technical components. A cosplayer will help you with the design. You can let your imagination run wild with the thermoplastic material Worbla. The outfit is rounded off with a Jedi costume that you sew yourself. You will be supported by a seamstress. When everything is ready, you will not only have a great costume, but also a lot of insights into different professional worlds, from electrical engineering to game design.
