Special exhibition at Oldenburg Castle

"Blues" describes a style of music, a mood and: the colour blue in all its nuances. The colour blue is also a special feature of the works of two contemporary artists from the Oldenburg region: Katja Liebmann and Jub Mönster.

Katja Liebmann works with one of the oldest photographic processes, the "cyanotype". This involves coating strong copperplate printing paper with light-sensitive iron salts, placing a negative on top and exposing it to the sun, creating velvety blue iridescent tones. The pictures convey the impression of memories, and sometimes several layers of time seem to lie on top of each other. The works have both a painterly and graphic appearance. This enables unusual views of reality - of the transient nature of time.
