Welcome
“There will be no flower in my art gallery,
that doesn't want to be given away by children"
My circular studio is an open space
for creativity, exchange of ideas and opinions.
And this has been the case for 25 years now
CURRENT EXHIBITION
IN LISBET'S GARDEN IN ZINGST
I'm currently exhibiting again in Zingst on the Baltic Sea in Lisbet's beautiful garden. I'll be there until June 28th and then again throughout August. I'm happy to welcome everyone who visits.
25 YEARS OF WATER TREATMENT PLANT
This year is a very special year for us, as we're celebrating 25 years of the Kunstklärwerk (art wastewater treatment plant). Therefore, we'd like to take you on a little journey back in time—a brief look back at the development of an empty building to my studio—a space for meetings and the exchange of ideas, but also a venue for musicians, artists, and events.
The planning is underway..
We're already looking forward to showing you the many facets of the artificial sewage treatment plant. We're planning various events in this context.
once upon a time...
It's hard to believe that 25 years have already passed. Back then, it was a completely empty space, but it has gradually become more and more filled with life.
same place, same space - only years later...
Where there was nothing back then and I was sitting on the floor, I am now sitting on my red sofa 25 years later.
SOMETHING IS HAPPENING..
Of course, the preparations also include making the artificial sewage treatment plant especially beautiful for you. A special highlight for us is our new bar and stage, which my son and his friends redesigned.

What once seemed chaotic is now finally becoming a fully functional bar. With more space and completely new equipment, we now have many more options for our events. One of these options is cocktails, for example...
The bar has already proven itself at events.
The finished bar has already been subjected to a few tests. For example, at concerts by Norman Keil, Shane Alexander, and JaB - Jazz and Blues, and soon to be followed by many more.
New stage
This one is still under renovation. We're already excited to see what amazing artists will make their way back to our stage in the future. This time, too, with more space and a new design.

A FEW INSIGHTS
IN MY STUDIO
Norbert Then
artist
I've always been fascinated by my children's drawings... I admire their imaginativeness and spontaneity. I see myself reflected in them, as my working method is similar. I play with shapes and colors, with light and different materials.
For me, art is when I walk through life and a corridor of light and sculpture emerges behind me.

My online gallery
My online gallery features works from my studio that I've recently created. Each piece is designed by me as a unique and one-of-a-kind work. We are happy to accommodate your wishes to the best of our ability—size, material, and installation. These studies serve as a basis for works in sacred and public spaces, for example.
Use the artificial sewage treatment plant
You have a meeting, are planning a seminar or a special occasion and are looking for an extraordinary location with a special atmosphere?
Events
Annual events have become a tradition at the artificial sewage treatment plant.
For example, the wine bottle evening or various concerts where many great artists have found their way onto our stage.
We are particularly pleased
on April 26th about Katja Grahl,
a pantomime actress from Berlin.
