This neo-Romanesque brick church was built in 1877 by Emil Jung and rebuilt in 1955 after the destruction of the war. Today it houses the Essen University of Fine Arts (HBK). Under the title Exercises in Respect, René Block and Leonie Herweg present projects that were created in collaboration with HBK students and the surrounding neighborhood. With sculptures, sounds, installations and spatial interventions, the works invite visitors to move freely through the church. This creates a space that is characterized by exchange and shared learning.
