| David Dherbécourt |
A frenchman who came to Oldenburg for love and stayed on after breaking up with girlfriend. He went on doing his best to make a life in Oldenburg as he has got no one close in France after his both parents passed away.
- But then an illness hit me hard and I had to change way of living completely and also stopping the art studies I had started, David Dherbécourt explains.
His creative way in different forms such as clay, wood and stone but also with painting in oil kept him going. Besides that he started several art associations in town.

These figures only David has managed
to make in one piece each

Now David has just turned 60 on 17th of August living free style of life in middle of the town of Oldenburg, Lower Saxony, Germany with a few hens around him and growing his own flowers and tomatoes in garden!
Besides the bio cultivations his hobby is music and an old record player takes on also the modern classic LP:s from 1970 in their original covers.

He is also importing the french chestnuts in tins for sale and you have probably seen him roasting those for Christmas at Lambertimarkt.

| Here at Abraham Place there are nine figures to be seen |
Some of his stone art is to be seen in center of Oldenburg where his statues adorn the Abraham place since many years. There are in total nine of them and David had to find sponsors to get them done as the Town did not have the money to pay him for the work.
- So Oldenburg got them really cheap, he says with a smile.
On 12th and 13th of September 2020 you can visit David when he opens his gates to show his work and where some of the art will be for sale.
- There will be something to drink too for everyone and the weather will be good they say.
You will find Davids workshop and garden at Kortlangstr 5 in Oldenburg on the coming Saturday and Sunday between 12 and 18 hours both days.
Enjoy our gallery below and see many more of David´s work this weekend by visiting him in person!

Beautiful Madness
Michael Patrick Kelly
 |
| Art: M. W.
There’s no the line on your horizon
You’re like a lion and a lamb
Is it a tragedy or triumph
You’re so good it’s sick
Why did you swallow down my poison
Now I’m your number one fan
Naked on a desert island
You’re so good it’s sick
And it feels like beautiful madness
Feels like never enough
Don’t you know that you are the baddest
Yeah it feels like a beautiful madness
I just can’t get enough
Don’t you know that you’re leaving me breathless
Now we don’t care ‘bout the cash flow
We gotta another kinda gold
We keep it hot, no tabasco
No sleep, no sleep
Plenty sharks in the ocean
But we still dive deep
Come and take sip of the potion
No sleep, no sleep
And it feels like beautiful madness

You have nice bits of fabric or wall paper that you just
cant throw away.
And probably a lamp that you really dont like because
of its horrible lamp shade.
Here is a tip how to make it all useful!
 |
| To get this result we started with... |
...this old grey shade:
So take par metre of a nice wall paper and
tear it into rough pieces.
It looks funny here but you
can do it in different shapes.
Then just put bits randomly on to the shade with wallpaper glue until the shade is completely covered.
Let it dry.
At the end you can cut the edges with a small sharp knife so that it fits the lamp, see below.
Done!
It all took less than one hour to do!
You can also use newspaper or pages from an old book.
Or why not write some text on it!
Good luck!

Fast soup recipe
The nice weather has left you and you have had a flu or a really bad cold and need to recover fast and not much power is there - then trust us - this is it! Within maximum of 5 minutes with almost no money at all you have a nice soup!
You need a vegetarian or a chicken broth to put into hot water that you can take from your kettle, put salt in and ad whichever pasta you like.
Preferably fast cooking, these take 3 minutes.
And you have made you a very nice and light meal!
Good also for those who would like to lose weight if you just eat normal portions of it. But that applies to all meals...
