Marta Herford is the recipient of this year’s Tiemann Prize for contemporary painting. The prize, endowed with 50,000 Euros, enables the acquisition of three works by artist Kerstin Brätsch for the Marta collection. We cordially invite you and your friends to the festive award ceremony and a viewing of the site-specific installation in the Marta Café.
Within the curved Gehry architecture, a large-format wallpaper (“MƎTA Rorschach”, 2024) is combined with two stucco marmo works from the series “Fossil Psychic_for Christa (Stucco Marmo)”, 2020. These three works, acquired through the Tiemann Prize, are complemented by further paper works by the artist. The installation will be freely accessible in the Marta Café from November 15, 2025, for at least two years.
