Are guild

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Are-Gilde is an artist association in the Ahr valley , which was founded in 1941 and registered as an association in 1979.

While there was originally only one painter among the nine founders, after only six months the main focus of the group's activities was on the fine arts, painting and sculpture . The leading figures in the 1940s were Hanns Matschulla , Pitt Kreuzberg and Carl Weisgerber .

Since it was founded, several exhibitions have been held annually, several times outside the Ahr region (e.g. in Mainz, Cologne, Innsbruck, Malta and others). The current structure of the exhibitions is aimed at an autumn exhibition for all members, a thematic exhibition and possibly a memorial exhibition. Since the introduction of the culture days of the Ahrweiler district, the ARE guild has also been closely involved in this area, including at the Rhineland-Palatinate cultural summer.
