Anni Jutz is an artist born in Rittersdorf in 1950 who has lived in Bitburg since 1976.

After completing an apprenticeship at a law firm, she worked for ten years as a clerk at Bitburg District Court until the birth of her three children. She then worked as an office assistant in the family-run joinery business.

She discovered painting in 2005. Following seminars at the European Academy of Art in Trier and inspiration from travels to America, Bolivia, Ticino, Italy, France and England, she discovered her passion for painting.

The results of her creative process are characterised by spontaneity and a love of experimentation, and largely transcend the representational. Her technical repertoire ranges from acrylic paints, paper collages and linen fabrics to coffee powder and homemade paints made from pigments and sand.

The works exhibited by Georg Worecki are from an early phase of his digital photographic work, during which he focal length of the lens during the shooting process. Due to this movement, these photographic works often recall images that emerged particularly during the abstract phases of 19th- and 20th-century painting . It is primarily improvisation that motivated Worecki here to draw closer to the unexpected, the immediacy of strangeness, the spell of otherness. For him, it essentially served as an act of liberation from the burden of the everyday. In doing so, Worecki once again attempted to project the secret of life onto a screen.
