Rebecca Raue is an artist and educator based in Berlin. For over two decades, her work has focused on how connecting children and diverse communities with the creativity of art can help achieve a more democratic society. Rebecca’s paintings, drawings, and performance works have been exhibited at galleries and institutions including Louvre Abu Dhabi and are represented in private and public collections including Deutsche Bundestag. As the founder and artistic director of the non-profit organization Ephra, Rebecca established the project “Ephra Unterwegs” (Ephra On the Road), which brings school-age children from different economic and cultural contexts to artists’ studios in order to conduct eye-to-eye studio visits. In 2023, she curated the exhibition “Gedanken spielen Verstecken: An adventurous art exhibition for kids and adults,” which featured works by over 20 internationally-recognized artists. A catalog of this project will be published by Hatje Cantz in 2024. Alongside her artistic and community-focused work, Rebecca is a certified transformation coach, using both somatic and analytical methods to help individuals and institutions more clearly map their relationships to themselves and the world. https://www.rebeccaraue.de.
