in the district of Vorpommern-Greifswald, a lot is happening in the art scene. In the coming summer months, the artists Ingke Günther and Jörg Wagner will become active in the city as “artists in residence”. Your goal? Creative to get into conversation with the Loitzers and to put their ways of life into the focus of their work, reports the Nordkurier .

As part of a special art project in July, the two artists would like to actively involve the Peenestädter. Unlike many of their colleagues, Günther and Wagner collect dinner or stull boards used and thus deal intensively with the regional kitchen cultures. They will not only hope in their studios, but also hope for invitations to dining tables in the region - according to the motto: "We are a rank". At the end of your stay, invite the people in Loitz to a common dinner in the artist Gut Loitz.

artistic encounters and invitations

Barbara Camilla Tucholski, the chairwoman of the Künstlergut Loitz association, encourages the population to report when they are willing to receive the artists. If you are interested, you can contact her directly on 0172 8815307. It is an invitation to creativity and a personal encounter with the artists.

This initiative is part of the larger program "All.land - together. Strengthen structures", which has been implemented in rural regions of Germany since 2023. The aim of this program is to promote culture and democracy in rural areas. Over 97 regions already took part in the first phase of the program, with Loitz and the surrounding area playing an important role.

But in Loitz not only the art of residence is active. Another creative head shapes the city: the anonymous street artist Hein Lohe, who has already embellished Loitz with unique murals. Inspired by his passion for street art, works Lohe in the area and gives the city a fresh touch. The citizens appreciate his artistic work, which can be found on uninhabited houses and garages. Despite his anonymity, he compares himself to the British fashion style from Banksy and thus attracts many admirers. Only one advertisement has so far been filed against him, as ndr reports.

Where one artist actively incorporates the community, the other color and life brings into the streets that are brought up with art. Loitz shows how diverse and dynamically the cultural life in the region is.
