Ink (T)Spaces at kultur.lokal.fürth: When lines become stories
With Ink (T)Spaces – Let it flow!, kultur.lokal.fürth opens a poetic space for drawing, text, and experimentation. From October 17 to 27, 2026, Petra Herberger and Jürgen Findeiss will meet in an exhibition that understands ink not merely as a medium, but as a starting point for image, narrative, and aesthetic experience.
Preliminary reports make it clear: This is not a silent display space, but an open art experience. Drawings, word fragments, and works created live coalesce into an ink cosmos that invites visitors to think further, participate, and empathize.
Ink as a material between precision and freedom
Ink demands both concentration and openness. It is precisely from this tension that the exhibition derives its intrigue: brush, pen, and script encounter spontaneous gesture, controlled line, and the moment of the unpredictable. The works reference the long tradition of drawing and illustration, but expand it with a playful, narrative dimension.
Petra Herberger brings her experience in graphic design, illustration, and animation work. Jürgen Findeiss complements this visual language with words and stories. Thus, an installative presentation emerges that is not only to be viewed but read in the truest sense.
Inktober as an impulse for an open workshop
The exhibition connects to the international Inktober campaign, where ink is drawn daily in October. At kultur.lokal.fürth, it becomes a public workshop of imagination: Every day, a new ink image is created on-site, while the audience is invited to leave their own ink traces.
This very openness shapes the exhibition's atmosphere. The space becomes a resonating body for concentration, conversation, and creative participation. Those who come will not only experience finished works but a process that unfolds visibly.
Accompanying program: Join in, listen, dive in
For the opening on October 17, 2026, starting at 7 PM, live music is announced. Several formats will follow that enhance the educational and cultural value of the exhibition: On October 18 and 25, the workshop Make your own ink will take place. On October 23, (Dr)Ink together invites casual exchange. On October 24, a short lecture provides insight into 6,000 years of ink history.
These program points make the exhibition particularly attractive for art enthusiasts, families, the curious, and anyone who appreciates the connection of drawing, text, and cultural education. Here, art mediation becomes immediately tangible.
People who work with material and language
Petra Herberger studied graphic design with a focus on illustration in Nuremberg, worked in advertising agencies, specialized in animation in Hamburg, and was awarded for her graduation film. Since then, she has moved between film, illustration, and children’s books. Jürgen Findeiss works as a trained educational scientist on issues of participation, social opening, and narrative design. Together, they form a duo that shows art not as a finished object but as a lively communication.
Voices of the visitors
The first reactions to such open ink spaces are usually enthusiastic: Many art lovers appreciate the mixture of drawing, language, and participatory formats. The direct work on the spot creates the closeness that turns an exhibition into a true art experience.
The social openness of the format also convinces: Those who engage with material, line, and text experience how a seemingly simple substance gives rise to a multifaceted narrative.
Conclusion: Ink (T)Spaces – Let it flow! promises an exhibition between work observation, creative participation, and cultural-historical knowledge. Those who love drawing processes, poetic imagery, and experimental exhibition culture should definitely experience this presentation live at kultur.lokal.fürth.
