Bremen book premiere “Unterwegs” with Eberhard Pfleiderer

Hello, my dears,

Now the time has finally come: Eberhard Pfleiderer's new work will soon be available in our shop. For this reason we would like to invite you all to the premiere on December 15th, 2022 in Die Villa Ichon at 7:00 p.m. Here Eberhard Pfleiderer will present his volume of poetry "Unterwegs" and Reiner Madena will present the images of his sculptures.

In his work, Eberhard Pfleiderer deals with the contradiction of being on the move. In a juxtaposition, he considers the materially secure, voluntary being on the move of the global North on the one hand and the poor, involuntary fugitives of the global South on the other. He raises the question of the illusory dreams of those who are fleeing and contrasts them with the happiness projections of those who are secured. The author moves stylistically between lyrical prose and prosaic poetry. Through this interlacing of styles, he masterfully succeeds in depicting the entanglement of the two poles and making the contradictions of being on the road accessible to the reader.

The impressiveness of Pfleiderer's words is supported by the works of art by the Bremerhaven sculptor Reiner Madena. The two-faced nature of his sculptures corresponds in a fascinating way with the bipolarity of his "Texts on the Road". Through the dynamic alternation of text and image, the work manages to create a varied, lively mix and captivates the reader.

Admission to the event is free.

We look forward to seeing you and to the event.

until then it's fine
