Rolf Escher: Magic of Things
In 2018 the artist Rolf Escher made several visits to Kloster Bentlage in Rheine to sketch the former monastery’s architecture and historical objects. That summer he produced five print editions with us: three etchings, a lithograph, and his very first screenprint. This charming film shows not only the creative and technical processes, but also Escher’s delighted fascination with the rich cultural history of the location, which is palpable in his drawings and prints.
