Dr. Ulrich Scheufelen | Founder and chairman of Board of Trustees
19 years ago, the Württemberg art lover Dr. Ulrich Scheufelen and his wife Dr. Gisela Meister-Scheufelen brought her collection with outstanding religious-existentialist graphics of the modern age to the city of Wittenberg and founded the "Christian Art Wittenberg Foundation". For 19 years, Jutta Brinkmann was chairwoman of the Christian Art Foundation in Wittenberg, expanded the collection and made it known at home and abroad. 19 years also means 19 exciting exhibitions, which were shown in addition to the permanent exhibition both in Wittenberg and at numerous locations in Europe. In addition, there are several art prize winners and competition winners who still feel connected to the foundation today.
So it's time to pause and remember the last few years with an exhibition of avant-garde and highly topical art and at the same time look to the future.
