On Tuesday, September 2, 2025, the 2nd-year MFA cohort visited the Kunstverein Leverkusen to visit the show of Alfred in Düsseldorf painting faculty, Katrin Laade. The show is titled “IN DER WELT”; translated to English “IN THE WORLD”. Katrin is an abstract painter, born in Germany, and studied at the world-famous Kunstakademie Düsseldorf and de ateliers in the Netherlands. Katrin keeps her studio in Düsseldorf and works as a dedicated abstract artist. As students, we have the pleasure to join Katrin for various travel opportunities, as she enlightens us to the heart and soul of various European art cities.
