Values, Community, and Art in the Space of the City Library

The exhibition Connecting Values – Art from I to We brings an artistic experience to the Freising City Library that combines aesthetic experience and societal reflection. Featured are collages and canvases created by children, students, and adults during values workshops led by Marian Kretschmer, supplemented by works from his artistic work in schools in Tanzania.

When the I Becomes We

At the center is the question of how democratic values can become visible when different perspectives meet. The examination of the works opens a dialogue about community, responsibility, and cohesion. The formats of collage and canvas provide an immediate visual language to the theme: layers, color fields, and material contrasts condense into an open contemplation about social togetherness.

Marian Kretschmer and the Idea of Encounter

Marian Kretschmer, born in 1983 in Chemnitz, works according to the available artist information in painting and illustration; his works combine realistic approaches with surreal, dream-like imagery and a strong interest in human encounter, education, and societal responsibility. His position is therefore well-suited for an exhibition that links cultural education and artistic practice. ([marian-kretschmer.com](https://marian-kretschmer.com/?utm_source=openai))

A Place for Open Access

The Freising City Library offers much more than media and reading rooms as a cultural venue: it annually hosts over 200 events for young and old and regularly displays exhibitions in its spaces. The building is located in the Old Fire Station on Weizengasse 3 and, with its opening hours on Tuesday from 10 AM to 7 PM, Wednesday to Friday from 10 AM to 6 PM, and Saturday from 10 AM to 2 PM, is well integrated into the daily life of the city.

Visit, Context, and Atmosphere

This exhibition unfolds its impact particularly in the library context: between knowledge, reflection, and quiet concentration. The works invite viewers to perceive democratic values not abstractly, but as image, attitude, and communal experience. Those who appreciate art as an impulse for exchange and cultural education will find here a compelling example of how exhibition curation makes societal themes sensorially tangible.

Conclusion: Connecting Values – Art from I to We promises a thoughtful, touching, and accessible exhibition about community, democracy, and artistic responsibility. A visit to the Freising City Library is worthwhile for anyone wishing to experience contemporary art as a space for thought and aesthetic experience.
