An intercultural artistic narrative between Germany and Egypt. In her works, Barbara Armbruster (b. in Bad Waldsee, lives and works in Stuttgart) deals with cultural and social spaces, structures, and identities. Influenced by many years of residence in the North African metropolis of Cairo, Armbruster's diverse works are points of relationship between two completely different cultural spaces. In her paintings, drawings, photographs, installations, and performative videos, the artist pursues a cross-cultural approach that tells of her time in Egypt and Germany on both a documentary and personal level. The monograph provides fascinating insight into Armbruster's continuously developed language of expression between Arabic calligraphy, stylized ornamentation, and the photographic staging of everyday architecture. With a foreword by Clemens Ottnad and contributions by Salwa Bakr, Iris Dressler, Marianne Eigenheer, Eva-Marina Froitzheim, Andreas Gabelmann, José F. A. Oliver, Vivien Sigmund, and Stefanie Stegmann. Barbara Armbruster studied Graphic Art at the State Academy of Fine Arts in Stuttgart, where she later held a teaching position. Her works have been widely exhibited at, among others, the Goethe-Institut in Cairo, the Landesmuseum Württemberg in Stuttgart, and the Kunstverein Freiburg.
