Opening of the new library and the outdoor space parcours of the Künstlerdorf Schöppingen

The authors Vera Vorneweg and Grashina Gabelmann will be present to talk about the following projects over coffee and waffles:

The concept of the library of the artists’ village was developed and realised this year by the author Vera Vorneweg. In the successive redesign, global perspectives and multilingualism are taken into account on the one hand, but on the other hand, forms of literature beyond the book format are also taken into consideration. The library, with its character somewhere between an archive and a “living library”, will be continuously enriched with the perspectives of the participants.

Spread across the grounds of the artists’ village, nine signs now provide information about the historical background, developments and programme of the artists’ village. The author Grashina Gabelmann conducted interviews with contemporary witnesses, founders and contributors. Dorothée Hahne’s contribution can be found at station no. 7.

All contributions are available online here The interview with Dorothée Hahne contains the composition “LatenzZeit” for digital nightingale songs, which was created in 2001 as the first composition during her scholarship at the Schöppingen Artists’ Village Foundation and which was released on the CD “StopStories – unterwegs” by edition newsic.

Writer and chocolate lover Tanja Dückers presents the 2023 annual edition. A Schöppingen chocolate was created in the artists’ village as part of her scholarship stay.
