In the future, the organizers, artist Kurt Ries and haiku poet Gabriele Walter, also plan to offer poet from around the globe the opportunity to present their haiku poems at the unique 'Enter into Art' events. For
four years, the international installations have
been taking place, featuring small-format pictures from around the
world, in Cologne and other cities along the Rhine. Art and poetry will be even more strongly promoted in future projects - for mutual benefit!
This is an excellent opportunity to present your poetry!

Art and gift book |
The
haiku will be integrated in an appealing way into the artistic design
of the exhibition in Cologne. The haiku can be delivered in your mother tongue or German or English language and must be ready for publication! In its conception, the exhibition
resembles a haiga installation on a grand scale, meaning that it is
an excellent way to promote the mutual fertilization of art and
poetry.
The
annual exhibition catalog ‘Kunstretreat’ is designed in the form
of a gift book, featuring haiku poems and art prints from around 50
countries, which is distributed worldwide to bookshops and online
bookstores. The joint projects with international artists and poets are
preceded by a long-standing collaboration with renowned publishing
houses.
We
look forward to your participation and dissemination in your poetry
circle as well as in press, internet, radio and television!
