Non-stop highlights in Münster

Art, culture and sport are united on this day in Münster and its districts of Gievenbeck, Roxel and Nienberge. Art? Yes, for the first time Dr. Katharina Menke recorded her impressions of the races, but also impressions of friends and acquaintances in an elaborate “Where’s Wally?” style illustration on which she spent more than 200 hours.

“We have never seen anything like this before,” say the astonished organisation team, who are enthusiastic about the many details that this picture – the very detailed style is called a “teeming picture”, Wimmelbild, in German – combines. “You can look at it for half an hour and always discover something new,” says Michael Brinkmann, chairman of Münster-Marathon e.V., who has now included the artist in his training group to get her fit for two relay sections at the Volksbank-Münster-Marathon.

The original large picture drawn on canvas, signed by the winners of the marathon, will be auctioned off in favor of the José Carreras Leukemia Foundation. Katharina Menke is also offering prints in approximately A2 format for 25 EUR. The prints can be obtained directly from Münster-Marathon e.V. (info@volksbank-muenster-marathon.de), Windthorststrasse 32 in Münster. Part of the sales proceeds of these will also be donated to the José Carreras Leukemia Foundation.
