Color, Light, and Photographic Perception in the New Town Hall

The exhibition Bernd Romankiewitz and Jürgen Pohl brings together two distinct artistic signatures in the exhibition hall of the New Town Hall in Bayreuth from June 4 to July 8, 2026. Featured are color woodcuts by Bernd Romankiewitz and photographs by Jürgen Pohl – a dialogue between abstract natural forms and precise image observation. The exhibition is free and takes place in the heart of the city. ([bbk-oberfranken.de](https://bbk-oberfranken.de/mitglieder/romankiewitz.html?utm_source=openai))

Bernd Romankiewitz: Botany as Artistic Research

Bernd Romankiewitz has been working for years on a body of work derived from shadow images of plants and leaves. His color woodcuts straddle the line between print graphics, drawing, and painting; the floral templates are reduced, dissolved, and translated into abstract color games. The artist is registered with the BBK Oberfranken as a painter and graphic artist, and his studio is located in Bayreuth.

Jürgen Pohl: Photography as Concentrated Image Observation

Jürgen Pohl describes his work as a combination of craftsmanship, art education insights, and a rediscovered watercolor and image practice after a scientifically shaped professional life. His approach focuses on solid technical execution and on images that delight viewers and provoke thought. In the exhibition, his photographs provide a calm counterpoint to Romankiewitz's graphic condensing and expand the art experience by incorporating the dimension of the photographic gaze.

The Exhibition Hall in the New Town Hall as an Urban Art Space

The exhibition hall of the New Town Hall at Luitpoldplatz 13 is a central place for cultural education in Bayreuth. Previous presentations show that the space is regularly used as an urban exhibition venue for art projects and can be visited during the Town Hall's opening hours. This makes the exhibition visit accessible, everyday, and at the same time atmospherically special. ([bayreuth.de](https://www.bayreuth.de/licht-und-farben-im-rathaus/?utm_source=openai))

An Art Experience Between Natural Form and Photographic Precision

Those who visit this exhibition will experience a concentrated look at material, form, and perception. The color woodcut highlights structure, rhythm, and reduction, while photography sharpens the moment, light, and composition. It is precisely in their interplay that an aesthetic experience arises that is both art-historically founded and sensually accessible.

Conclusion: This exhibition invites you to experience art as quiet, intense seeing. Bernd Romankiewitz and Jürgen Pohl connect two worlds of images into a compelling dialogue that invites close observation in Bayreuth. A visit is worthwhile for anyone wishing to discover contemporary art, photography, and print graphics in a clear, open exhibition atmosphere.
