A Literary Memory Space for Alexej Borutscheff in Bamberg
In the Bamberg State Library, a storytelling circle is being created this morning, focusing less on program rhetoric and more on lived memories. Alexej Borutscheff: Companions Remember brings together people who have experienced the artist or know his Bamberg up close. The event combines biographical tracing, cultural-historical contextualization, and the special reading atmosphere of a place where language, city history, and personal memory intertwine.
When Memory Becomes Cultural Practice
Alexej Borutscheff died in 1994 in Bamberg, the city on the Regnitz that had become his home since 1945. His studio on Katzenberg was located near the cathedral and the State Library. The wine tavern Pizzini on Sandstraße was also part of his everyday life in Bamberg. The storytelling circle thus opens a window not only to an artist's biography but also to a local cultural milieu shaped by post-war time, workshop spirit, and intellectual independence.
The Place: Reading Room with Historical Aura
The reading room of the Bamberg State Library is ideal for such a literary-cultural format. The baroque rooms in the New Residence create tranquility, concentration, and an aura of seriousness that supports discussions about art and memory. Those who come together here do not merely experience an event but a carefully curated cultural occasion close to the historical city center with a view of one of Bamberg's most impressive places.
Moderated Conversation with Public Openness
The storytelling circle will be moderated by Dr. Regina Hanemann from Bamberg. The format is open: listening is explicitly welcome, as is contributing personal memories. This is precisely the strength of this morning: it connects scientific authority with personal experience and makes memory a palpable form of cultural transmission.
Why Attendance is Worthwhile
The event is aimed at everyone interested in art, urban history, biographical tracing, and the cultural topography of Bamberg. Those who want to get to know Alexej Borutscheff as an artist, as a local Bamberg resident, and as part of an urban memory culture will find a rare, authentic access here. This storytelling circle promises not just a mere lecture format, but a morning of open encounters that will be remembered.
Conclusion: On June 21, 2026, the reading room of the Bamberg State Library will become a place of lively remembering. The free storytelling circle brings together companions, interested parties, and culture enthusiasts and reintroduces Alexej Borutscheff in Bamberg. Those who want to experience urban history with a personal voice should attend this date live.
