When Children's Drawings Become Poetic Image Spaces

The exhibition From Children's Drawings to Image Space presents images by Stefanie Schäfer at the Christian Morgenstern House in Göttingen. On Sunday, October 25, 2026, a quiet exhibition space will be open from 11:15 AM to 1:15 PM for a special examination of the works: children's drawings appear here not only as documents of childhood development but as starting points for independent artistic engagement.

The Original Gesture as the Source of Art

Stefanie Schäfer has been accompanying children in Waldorf kindergartens for decades. From this educational experience arises a precise gaze at lines, shapes, color tones, and spontaneous image arrangements. With sensitivity, she transforms children's drawings into small artworks and makes visible the immediate source from which artistic creation can emerge.

Between Line, Color, and Image Space

The works invite viewers to discover the origin of art in an immediate visual language. A simple line gains rhythm, a spontaneous shape acquires presence, and from the child's gesture, an independent image space develops. The exhibition links painting, art education, and cultural education with a concentrated aesthetic experience.

A Calm Place for Intensive Examination of the Works

The Christian Morgenstern House provides a restrained setting for the images. The exhibition atmosphere supports a slowed-down seeing, where colors, shapes, materials, and spatial effects gradually come into focus. Visitors experience an artistic experience that takes both the creative process and the child's perception seriously.

Art Education for Curious Visitors

The exhibition is aimed at art enthusiasts, families, and anyone who wishes to view drawing and painting from a new perspective. It opens an artistically and pedagogically stimulating approach to the question of how an initial mark becomes an image and why children's drawings, as an independent form of expression, deserve special attention.

Conclusion: Experience the Origin of the Image Live

From Children's Drawings to Image Space promises a sensitive and inspiring encounter with works concerning perception, development, and artistic imagination. Those who want to experience painting as aesthetic experience, cultural education, and a lively process should definitely visit this exhibition at the Christian Morgenstern House in person. Admission is free.
