Synagoge - Gefäß blau

More about the book

Jochen Stenschke understands painting and drawing as having multi-layered, situational potential, whose gestures investigate the continuity and discontinuity of time and space. Jochen Stenschke calls his blue paint and ink drawings of the space of the former synagogue in Oerlinghausen: "Synagogue - BLUE Vessel". Photographs from the postwar period showing the remains of the original wall decorations in the Old Synagogue were one source of inspiration. The development of this temporary drawing of the space - with detailed and general views - is presented in this publication by Kunstverein Oerlinghausen.
