Rulers, compasses, paint, and above all paper are the materials that Mainz-based artist Lore Bert uses for her artworks. She draws inspiration from ornaments, numbers, and characters, as well as geometry, architecture, and science. On July 2, 2021, Lore Bert will celebrate her 85th birthday – a welcome occasion to honor the artist's work with a special exhibition featuring, among other things, Lore Bert's latest works and a gigantic paper installation designed especially for the Gutenberg Museum. The title "Ways of World making" refers to the magnum opus of the American philosopher Nelson Goodman and thus to the observation that multiple views of the world, indeed multiple worlds, can exist side by side on an equal footing – and, ideally, as in the work of Lore Bert, enrich each other.
