Lore Bert’s art is difficult to classify into hermeneutic categories and deliberately does not pursue a specific goal in this respect. Rather, she wants to draw attention to the vulnerability of people and values with quiet gentleness, while at the same time emphasizing the beauty and preciousness of the diversity of people, values, cultures and religions. For over four decades, her artistic work has been characterized by the use of Far Eastern papers from Japan, Nepal, Korea and China, which often take on a spatial dimension. Collages, pictorial objects, transparencies, sculptures, installations and entire paper spaces demonstrate her interest in material, form, space and environment. Paper is her preferred material.
