This catalog is published for the exhibition ‘Bettina Heinen-Ayech – from Solingen to the Orient’ at the Kunstverein Coburg e.V. from 25 January 2025 to 11 May 2025

The Solingen painter Bettina Heinen-Ayech (1937-2020) attracted attention at the age of 18 when she was invited to participate in the first major international art exhibition of the young Federal Republic of Germany. A plein-air painter, she developed her own unique style of watercolour and, after travelling extensively in Europe and spending time in Egypt, settled in Algeria.
A life out of a novel, dedicated to painting and international understanding.
Until her death in 2020, Algeria was the centre of her life, alternating with Solingen.

Bettina Heinen-Ayech’s exhibition list includes more than 90 major solo exhibitions in museums and important cultural institutions in Europe and North Africa.
