A Circle Closes at the Gallery Rosemarie Jäger
On various occasions the Gallery Jäger showcased the ceramists Beate Kuhn, Karl and Ursula Scheid, Magarete Schott and Gerald and Gotlind Weigel, also known as the London Group. Now a small retrospective of their works from the estate of Eva and Hansgeorg Gareis will be shown in the Kelterhaus.
Over many decades the collectors Gareis maintained friendly relations with the ceramists of the London Group and assembled works mainly from the 1970ies to 1990ies. Thanks to their great commitment to ceramics the series of international exhibitions “Form und Glasur” at the Jahrhunderthalle of Hoechst AG had become possible.
Eva Gareis was also well-known as visitor of the Gallery Jäger.
In the Kabinett photos by Karl Scheid show his view of nature and ceramics – and how both can enrich each other.
The circle closes with ceramic works by Sebastian Scheid who also takes care of the ceramic estate of Eva and Hansgeorg Gareis.
