COMING HOME - Margarete Rettkowski-Felten in der RuhrGalleryMülheim

The Joseph Beuys student and author Margarete Rettkowski-Felten manages to, in the spirit of the great master, set the entire floor in motion. The guiding theme of "Home Sweet Home," expressing the longing of humans for a beautiful abode, has been greatly expanded by Rettkowski-Felten: "HOME STREET HOME," "HOME WAR HOME," "HOME OCEAN HOME," but also "HOUSING FIRST" and "SAFE PLACES" are facets of her work that can inspire admiration and send shivers down one's spine.

Margarete Rettkowski-Felten presents an exhibition in the artistic direction of "Zero Waste Art," which aims to reuse and transform materials, giving "disposable materials" a new creative appearance and meaningful purpose.

The exhibition emphasizes the ecological mindset of responsible resource management and the preservation of our planet by avoiding unnecessary consumption, exploitation of resources, and packaging waste.

The artist utilizes materials from the surroundings of homeless individuals, such as paper, cardboard, and packaging materials, as well as found objects, newspapers, and advertising leaflets.
