Discover the genius of Albrecht Dürer (1471–1528) — the visionary painter, printmaker, and thinker who transformed the Northern Renaissance.
Rising from humble beginnings in Nuremberg to working in the courts of emperors, Dürer reshaped the role of the artist by uniting science, spirituality, and striking self-awareness. His innovative approach still feels remarkably modern today. This talk invites anyone curious about art, beauty, creativity and the brilliant mind of a Renaissance master, whose influence continues to inspire centuries later.
Hendrik Bebber worked as a UK correspondent for a dozen German newspapers. He received the German-British Foundation’s Annual Prize and was awarded the Federal Cross of Merit for his outstanding contribution to German-British understanding through his journalism. Before following his English wife to Bath in 1980, he was rooted in Nuremberg, like Dürer. There, he also served on the municipal planning group for the celebrations of Dürer’s 500th birthday and developed the concept for the groundbreaking multimedia show NORICAMA.
