Kunstpunkte (literally “art spots”) stands for two weekends when more than 100 artists in Düsseldorf invite the public to visit their ateliers. These visits always fascinate me; they are a chance to get very close to art and artists, experiencing the places where the works are acutally made. This is similar to visiting the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf (academy of fine arts) which I will cover in a separate post.
You may notice that I barely photograph the art itself, feeling much of it has already been reproduced (the last picture in this post shows part of an art work however). As for the artists themselves, I value their privacy, plus I am not really a portrait photographer. So here are some impressions from four different spots all of which you might not get to see outside of the Kunstpunkte.
Note: The next Kunstpunkte will take place next weekend and the weekend after.

Art spots are fantastic to explore.
Loved the paint brushes Tobias. Sounds like a marvelous experience
This is fascinating.
Those paint brushes are perfect for the Lens Artists this week, Tobias. I thought that was where you were leading me x
Exactly! And while the two pictures to the left don’t exactly show objects, the places are / were pretty commonplace. Thanks, Jo!
