Purpose and Bodies of the Friedensmal Foundation
The foundation supports the artistic project
Friedensmal in Bensheim, South-Hesse. It is about more than the construction of a monument. It is about relationships, about shalom; for a good coexistence between people and for this as a prerequisite, peace within oneself.The purpose of the foundation is in particular the promotion of art and culture,which can bring into being the processes for the spiritual healing of man and society,
which stimulates and promotes peace and freedom in the relations between people and nations, and
which symbolizes and supports appreciative understanding between people and nations.
Here you will find the statutes of the Friedensmal Foundation.
Chairmen of the BoardThomas Zieringer, artist and president of the Friedensmal Foundation, established the Foundation and the Friedensmal itself. His work is an expression of a longing for peace and understanding. 'Whether it is about one's own past or the country's past: Feelings of shame and guilt that crush are not a healing response. There needs to be a real acceptance of responsibility that is positive and brings more peace to the world.' (Here you will find his personal story of how he found the vision of the Friedensmal and how it came into fruition). |
