Rüdiger R. Lorenzo Eichholtz


Through my artistic work, the trainings and the organisational work, areas of tension become clear. These polarities and their experience have played a role since childhood.

Growing up in a village environment in Schwafheim near Moers, the neighbouring heavy industry in Duisburg in the 60s and 70s could be smelled and seen like a monster on the horizon. The maternal family, deeply rooted in the home village, shaped the firmly established structures of everyday life.

The family forms of the paternal Eichholtz line, on the other hand, came from the Prussian East and the upper middle classes of Danzig. They were characterised by the melancholy mood of the loss of their homeland and adventurous stories of escape. At 19, my path led me via community service, studies in social art and biographical work to a new understanding of the contexts and finally, after another 20 years, from the North German lowlands back to the Lower Rhine.

It was the eve of the Capital of Culture.....

In addition to his own projects (visual arts, interior design), Rüdiger R. Lorenzo Eichholtz currently works mainly as a curator for event conception and implementation as well as planning and realisation of artist collaborations.

 






 


He is significantly involved or a board member of the associations:

 

KULTURPROJEKTE NIEDERRHEIN E.V. /// PROMOTING REGIONAL NETWORKING IN THE LOWER RHINE

Kulturprojekte Niederrhein e.V. was founded in Moers in 2017. Its members come from Duisburg, Moers, Neukirchen-Vluyn, Kamp-Lintfort and Geldern. This corresponds to the origin and goals of the association. The statutes of the new association accordingly state that the purpose and goals of the association are "the promotion of regional networking on the Lower Rhine".

The Lokal sees itself as an artistic production site that is open to external projects. Ruhrort is the central port district of Duisburg in an island location and made for concentrated work.

"LET'S TAKE A GOODS TRANSPORT AND DRIVE THERE , ..."

Our main goal is the promotion and preservation of the Armenian duduk and the intangible cultural heritage "duduk music". It is our concern to allow the instrument to arrive in the 21st century - without forgetting tradition and without ignoring modernity. It is important to maintain and preserve traditions and to be equally open to contemporary contexts.
