Three Canadian artists will be taking part:

• Aj Jaeger , who is visiting her mother's hometown for the first time
• Destanne Norris, shows two large-format oil paintings inspired by the story of the legendary goat that lived freely in the Ore Mountains,
• Krystyna Laycraft, who presents collages based on a literary story by the artist Rege Kienast

The exhibition in Hohenstein-Ernstthal is open until 14 December - on Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays from 14:00 to 18:00 and by individual appointment. The organisers are also planning to open the space to school classes and leisure groups, as the exhibition deals with the history and present of indigenous cultures, among other things.
