Morgner Art Prize: Two talented prize winners with a migration background!

Yesterday there was an interesting event dedicated to art in Soest: the award ceremony of the Wilhelm Morgner Prize. WDR reports that The names of the winners were kept secret until the final ceremony, which meant the event did not lack excitement.

This year there was a special twist: the prize was split and increased at the same time for the first time. This unusual decision reflects the increasing importance given to diversity and different perspectives in art. Two artists were recognized for their outstanding works, both with inspiring immigration stories and impressive academic backgrounds.

The prize winners

• Angelika J. Trojnarski, 46 Jahre alt, stammt aus Mragowo in Polen und hat an der Kunstakademie Düsseldorf bei Größen wie Andreas Gursky und Jörg Immendorff studiert. Ihre Arbeiten thematisieren die komplexen Wechselbeziehungen zwischen Umwelt und natürlichen Phänomenen. Mit über 20 Jahren Ausstellungserfahrung weltweit hat sie sich in der Kunstszene fest etabliert. Ihr Wohnsitz ist in Düsseldorf.
• Hamidreza Yaraghchi, 41 Jahre alt, kommt aus Teheran im Iran. Er startete sein Kunststudium in Teheran und vervollständigte seine Ausbildung als Meisterschüler bei Ralf Kerbach in Dresden. In seinen Arbeiten greift er vor allem Fotoelemente auf und nutzt einen crossmedialen Ansatz. Yaraghchi lebt derzeit in Berlin.

Both award winners show how enriching and inspiring artistic diversity can be. Her works reflect profound themes that address both social and personal aspects.

A homage to Wilhelm Morgner

The Wilhelm Morgner Prize is named after the important artist Wilhelm Morgner, who was born in Soest in 1891. WDR continues to report, that Morgner was known for his collaboration with renowned artists such as Franz Marc and Wassily Kandinsky and that his work is classified as German Expressionism. Despite his short life of only 26 years, he left behind over 200 paintings.

The award ceremony honors the combination of tradition and modernity all the more. Morgner's works are not only part of art history, but also an inspiration for the current award winners, who are breaking new ground in the art world with their unique perspectives.

Meanwhile, another topic is making headlines: Pierre Hinkeltz is having significant difficulties with his Hotmail inbox Microsoft Community reports. He has noticed that some emails from certain senders do not arrive even though they are received without problems in other mailboxes. This could be due to server-side issues that require communication between the Outlook mail server and the sender domains.

Email problems can quickly become a challenge, especially when you rely on solid communication in today's digital world. Hinkeltz is advised to contact the senders in question to clarify the issue and ensure that he does not miss any important information.

In a completely different context, a user in a forum deals with the topic of WhatsApp. He plans to delete his account but has over 20GB of chats that he wants to back up, like Lowyat reports. The discussion here discusses how best to secure chat history with media, which shows that in this day and age not only artistic but also digital inheritances want to be secured.

Whether in art or digital communication, it remains exciting to see how creative people and users of their time deal with challenges and opportunities. Together they form the image of a lively, dynamic society that is always on the move.
