Helga Pape is the grande dame of Schloss Wolfsburg. She is known as an early member of the artists' group "Schloßstraße 8", from 1963 to 1989 she took part in exhibitions of the group, but her works were also presented and awarded prizes at the etching biennial in Buenos Aires, for example, and in the 1970s she was represented by two New York galleries. A longer trip in the 1970s took her to Afghanistan, a region that made a lasting impression on her. Numerous paintings and crayons in various forms of expression were created as a result of this stay.
Today, Helga Pape is 85 years old - time to take a new look at her extensive oeuvre from 1964 to 2017 and discover something surprising. Such an important artist must not be forgotten in Wolfsburg!
