Eugen Gomringer (1925-2025)

It is with great sadness that we bid farewell to Eugen Gomringer (born 1925). The poet and founder of concrete poetry passed away on August 21st, 2025, in Bamberg.
For Galerie Renate Bender, contact with Eugen Gomringer in the 1990s was instrumental in shaping the concrete-constructive orientation of the gallery's program.
Gerne erinnern wir uns an ihn als großen Dichter und Denker, als künstlerischen Berater, als Autor brillanter Texte zu vielen Künstlerinnen und Künstlern unserer Galerie.
