Heidi Trautmann and Işık Bookstore were with art lovers at the book launch that took place at the Girne Municipality Art Gallery on Tuesday, 19th October 2021 at 16.00,
Heidi Trautmann said; “Cypriots and painters of other nationalities, who spent most of their lives on this island, left their mark on Cypriot soil in a way. Shoes, the path they walk together. They were symbols of friendship, work and the way to be admired. Heidi Trautmann thought that those who have left this life in the course of time should not be forgotten. Engaging in art is an impulse as old as humanity itself, as well as the impulses to reproduce and hunt. It is a vital educational tool that fully develops the human five senses of sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell,” she said.
During the book launch, a photo show was held in memory of our art group members such as Anne Hughes, Margaret H. Goulding-Bosworth, Marilyn Bosworth, Muriel Clutten, Monika Ottow, Michael Raine, Ruth Smith, who passed away in the last two years.
