When Art Makes Democratic Values Visible
In the Freising City Library, the exhibition Connecting Values – Art from the I to the We unfolds a quiet yet highly relevant art experience. From October 8, 2026, to October 17, 2026, visitors encounter collages, canvases, and workshop works created through a collective artistic engagement with democratic values. The presentation connects aesthetic experience with cultural education and shows how a vibrant we can emerge from individual perspectives.

A Space for Dialogue, Form, and Attitude
The exhibition is more than a collection of works. It is a public thinking space where painting, collage, and communal image production meet. Children, students, and adults have worked in value workshops led by Marian Kretschmer and translated their thoughts on democracy, solidarity, and responsibility into visual language. This mix of openness and artistic discipline shapes the exhibition atmosphere.

Between I Perspective and Common Future
At the center is the question of how personal experiences connect to a collective societal consciousness. The collages and canvases make visible what cultural education can achieve: It creates resonance spaces in which values do not remain abstract but become tangible as form, color, and material. The results are complemented by works from Marian Kretschmer's work at schools in Tanzania, reflecting his long-standing exchange with Marafiki wa Afrika.

The Artist: Marian Kretschmer
Marian Kretschmer works as a freelance artist in the fields of illustration, graphics, and painting. His artistic practice combines social reflection with visual precision. According to gallery and artist portraits, his work includes exhibitions, educational projects, and graphic works dealing with human image, conflict, and awareness. This clear stance also gives the Freising presentation its argumentative strength. ([thenextart.de](https://www.thenextart.de/marian/html/vita.html?utm_source=openai))

The bibliothecal environment enhances the educational character of the show. Here, the contemplation of works combines with reading culture, conversation, and quiet concentration. It is precisely this special mix of accessibility and substantive depth that makes an exhibition relevant to a broad audience.
