Exhibition "Addiction and longing"

The exhibition "Addiction and longing" shows pictures and drawings by people affected by addiction. They focus on life in a state of imbalance and the challenging search or strong longing for harmony, joy and peace - in a world of alcohol, drugs, addictions, personal situations and life paths. The artworks were created as part of an art therapy program at the Birkenbuck rehabilitation clinic, a specialist clinic for addiction disorders in Malsburg-Marzell in the southern Black Forest. In cooperation with the Freundeskreis alkoholkranker Menschen Freiburg and the Ortsverein Blaues Kreuz Freiburg e.V.
