The Fork and Broom Press

The printmaking studio „The Fork and Broom Press“ is a real place existing in reality: you can walk in through the door and touch artwork and equipment, in Oppenwehe, Minden-Lübbecke. The studio is open for exhibitions and events, and additionally opens on request for whoever wants to look for something nice & special either for themselves or for their loved ones and friends.

For all of you who find themselves unable to travel to Oppenwehe, there is the „Open Studio on the Internet“. It is located in the World Wide Web under the domain name „Manufaktur Papiergebunden“. This place is open in the digital world 24 hours per day and 7 days a week. You can browse the shelves and displays sitting at home on your favourite sofa in front of an open fire or wherever you prefer. Virtually all my artwork is shown there with photos and a description (in German).

Orders from within the EU are welcome. Since all my art work is either a limited edition or a one-off, there is no such thing as an online-shop. Orders can be placed through mailing. If the desired work is still available, I’ll email back a proforma invoice and after the payment is recieved the item will be shipped as a dhl-parcel – providing proper tracking services.

The good thing about this is: when ordering there is no need for you to reveal any personal details, bank accounts or card data or register to this website. No payments via this internet page are possible. The only data I need is an address for delivery, which I’ll ask you to provide when sending the invoice. Add to this: there are no cookies pestering you on any of my websites.

When ordering or getting in touch you are welcome to use the mail-links provided on the website. If you want to be extra safe you can email your order from your own personal computer using your chosen mailsoftware with the security taylormade for your own needs.

All this means, there is no necessitiy for „Manufaktur Papiergebunden“ sporting a costly security certificate. Here, you can browse safely with no worries.

Enjoy!
