Blame it on the Bavarians!


The first-ever Oktoberfest was held in 1810 in
the Bavarian capital of Munich, Germany

It was supposed to be a one-time event
the original Oktoberfest was basically a month-long
wedding bash marking the nuptials of
Bavaria's Crown Prince Ludwig, (later King Ludwig I)
and Princess Therese of Saxe-Hildburghausen
but everyone had so much fun that they decided
to hold one the following year.

And the year after that. And the year after that....

 
Eventually the rest of the world realized how much
Fun the Germans were having, which is why
beer lovers everywhere now look forward
to October with the same sense of anticipation
and excitement that baseball
fans feel at the start of spring training.

Ein Besuch bei Brigitte Mauch in ihrer Goeppinger Galerie mit Werken ihrer Mutter Margret Hofheinzdoehring.
                                                               
                 Brigitte Mauch mit Werken ihrer Mutter, Margret Hofheinz Doering
  
In einer Rezension heist es 2010 zu der Ausstellung zum Stauferjahr: “Margret Hofheinz-Döring war eine deutsche Künstlerin, welche im 20. Jahrhundert zahlreiche Sagen, Geschichten und gesellschaftliche Phänomene künstlerisch interpretierte. Speziell die Werke zu Goethes Faust verschafften der Künstlerin einen großen Namen in der Kunstszene.
Der Kunstschatz, welcher in über einem halben Jahrhundert im Umfang von 9000 Werken von Margret Hofheinz-Döring geschaffen wurde, wird heute von Tochter Brigitte Mauch verwaltet. Etwa 6000 Werke der Künstlerin sind bis heute verblieben.”
Die Werke der deutschen Malerin , die 1910 geboren wurde,  sind positiv und ansprechend, eine Mischung aus den froehlichen Werken und Farbgebungen der grossen Maler ihrer Zeit, ins Persoenlich transportiert und fuer die Groesse der regionalen Welt gemalt und umgestzt, sodass man sich damit gut einrichten kann.
Chagall oder Delaunay, Kandinsky und ihre vielen gigantischen Werke, die man an der Decke der pariser Oper oder der Metropolitan Opera in New York, und in den Museen der Welt bestaunt. Hier sind sie liebevoll im Kleinen zu sehen und zu haben, die Bilderwelt der Margret Hofheinz-Doering. Gehen Sie persoenlich oder mal im Internet vorbei.

Margret Hofheinz-Döring, deutsche Malerin und Grafikerin, wurde geboren am 20. Mai 1910 in Mainz und starb am 18. Juni 1994 in Bad Boll. Sie schuf in etwa 70 Arbeitsjahren rund 9000 Bilder in verschiedenen Techniken: Ölmalerei, Aquarell, Zeichnung, Druckgraphik, Pastell, Hinterglasmalerei und vielen Mischtechnik-Varianten. Herausragend ist ihre Strukturmalerei, wobei sie verschiedene Textilien wie Brokat, Spitzen oder Rupfen als Bestandteil des Untergrunds klebte und übermalte.
Ihre Themen waren vor allem Menschen. In der Akademiezeit zeichnete und malte sie Porträts und Aktzeichnungen, später Bilder zur Weltliteratur, vor allem Goethes Faust I und Parzival. Später stellte sie oft typisch menschliche Situationen oder Märchenhaftes dar. Daneben hielt sie Landschaften, Blumen und Tiere in ihren Bildern fest. Ihre bewußte Gestaltung von Farben und Formen macht auch Ausfluege in  ungegenständliche  Kompositionen.
Hier noch Ihre Biografie in Einzeldaten ( im Audioteil hoeren Sie die Kurzbiografie und Kunstgedanken der Kuenstlerin aus dem Jahr 1974)

Kurzbiographie

Margret Hofheinz-Döring wurde 1910 in Mainz geboren. Künstlerische Anregungen erhielt sie schon früh durch ihren Vater, den Bildhauer und Schriftsteller Franz Döring.

In Göppingen aufgewachsen, studierte sie 1930 – 1934 an der Akademie der Bildenden Künste in Stuttgart und war dann Kunsterzieherin. 1939 heiratete sie den Altphilologen Herbert Hofheinz. 1944 wurde die Tochter Brigitte geboren. Nach dem Krieg lebte sie als freischaffende Künstlerin in Freudenstadt, dann in Zell u. A.

Sie entwickelte eine eigene Bilderwelt, in der Geschichten erzählt werden von Menschen, Tieren, Pflanzen, Landschaften oder auch von Formen und Farben. Auch Märchen oder Themen aus der Weltliteratur (z. B. Goethes Faust) sind häufig in ihrem Werk zu finden. Dichte Komposition und ausdrucksvolle Farben machen ihr Werk unverwechselbar.

Den Nachlass der 1994 in Bad Boll verstorbenen Künstlerin verwaltet die Tochter Brigitte Mauch.Weitere Informationen bietet die Seite www.hofheinz-doering.de


Margret Hofheinz-Döring: Kunstgedanken

In der Landschaft des Lebens ist Kunst ein Gartenbeet, ein Garten für die menschliche Seele, bestellt mit den Mitteln der bildhaften Gestaltung. Die Teilnahme des Künstlers durchdringt und ordnet am Chaos, in dem sich Steine, Menschen, Wälder, Straßen usw., bewegen und stoßen.

Die Musik lebt von Tönen und Melodien, das Bild von Farben und Formen. Die Aktionen der Linien, Farben und Formen auf der Bildfläche ergeben die Komposition. Das Bild ist nicht Abbild, sondern Entdeckung. Die Bildidee entspringt einem ganz eigenen magischen Bereich geistiger Kräfte. Um irgendein kleines Etwas kann sich die Gestaltung zu kristallisieren beginnen, z. B. eine Wurzel, eine Figur, ein Gesicht, oder aber auch ein inneres Erlebnis: ein Gedicht, Musik, ein Gespräch.

Nie wird es endgültige Formen geben. Jeder Weg führt ins Unendliche. Modulationen und Rhythmik der Linien und Formen vergegenwärtigen die Bewegungen der menschlichen Seele.

 Wollen kann man Kunst nicht. Fleiß ist ein guter Nährboden, aber das, was das Kunstwerk auszeichnet, ist oft ein Nebenprodukt des eigentlich Gewollten. Virtuose Beherrschung der Mittel machen kein Kunstwerk. Das Schöpferische kommt ohne Zwang aus den Weiten des Geistes.

ABOUT SARASOTA OPERA
Based in Florida’s beautiful Gulf Coast, Sarasota Opera is approaching its 55th consecutive season.  In 1960, the company began presenting chamber-sized repertoire in the historic 320-seat Asolo Theater on the grounds of Sarasota’s Ringling Museum of Art. Recognizing the need for a theater more conducive to opera, the company purchased the former A.B. Edwards Theater in downtown Sarasota in 1979 and first performing in it in 1984 as the Sarasota Opera House. The theater has just undergone a $20-million renovation and rehabilitation enhancing audience amenities, while updating the technical facilities including increasing the size of the orchestra pit. The theater, which reopened in March 2008, has been called “one of America’s finest venues for opera” by Musical America.

Since 1983 the company has been under the artistic leadership of Victor DeRenzi. Since then the company has garnered international attention with its Masterwork Revivals Series, which presents neglected works of artistic merit, as well as the Verdi Cycle producing the complete works of Giuseppe Verdi. Recognizing the importance of training, Maestro DeRenzi founded the Apprentice Artist and Studio Artist programs. Sarasota Opera also maintains a commitment to education through its Invitation to Opera performances for local schools and the unique Sarasota Youth Opera program.

Sarasota Opera is sponsored in part by the State of Florida, Department of State, Division of Cultural Affairs, the Florida Arts Council, and the National Endowment for the Arts. Programs are supported in part by an award the Tourist Development Tax through the Board of County Commissioners, the Tourist Development Council and the Sarasota County Arts Council. Additional funding is provided by the City of Sarasota and the County of Sarasota.
