International Wind Art in Northern Hesse
wind art landscape
bewegter wind e.V. organises wind art festivals and offers for wind art and intercultural communication.
Wind is a symbol of spirit and communication in almost all cultures of the world.
"bewegter wind" stages wind art in this multifaceted landscape. Wind art is fleeting, can always be experienced anew and remains unfinished in a fascinating way. At various locations - in front of forests, high-altitude landscapes, lakes or quarries - objects are created that make the wind visible and allow it to merge with the art.
The international wind art festival takes place as a competition every two years at changing locations in the region. "bewegter wind" is a landscape exhibition with a supporting programme, art competition, artists' meeting, cultural exchange, exhibition tour and children's programme.
The 11th wind art festival "bewegter wind" took place from 13th-27th August, 2023 in Wolfhagen. We are looking forward to the 12th wind art festival from 17th-31st of August, 2025.

"Catch me if you can"
The installation highlights human struggle to capture the nature and bend it to work in people’s favor. The clash between manmade structure oft he scaffolding with the hurricane representing the forces of nature symbolizes futility of our effort in the long run. The collapse and eventual overgrowth seem inevitable st this point.
Die Installation verdeutlicht den Kampf des Menschen, die Natur zu erobern und sie zu seinen Gunsten zu verändern. Das Zusammentreffen der von Menschenhand geschaffenen Struktur des Gerüsts mit dem Orkan, der die Kräfte der Natur repräsentiert, symbolisiert die Vergeblichkeit unserer Bemühungen auf lange Sicht. Der Zusammenbruch und die Überwucherung scheinen an diesem Punkt unvermeidlich.
