The fictional town of Kaisersaschern from Thomas Mann's "Doctor Faustus" serves as the imaginary center for Bazon Brock's concept of an "educational trail of historical imagination." This trail aligns with the grand tour undertaken by artists Rüdiger Giebler and Moritz Götze, who have been friends for thirty years, frequently exhibiting and traveling together. Central Germany, with its complex and often tumultuous history, provides rich inspiration, featuring a landscape filled with diverse narratives, from the Harz mountains to the river Oder. This region showcases a blend of mighty parks, industrial sites, battlefields, and nature reserves, where romanticism and rationalism coexist. Paul Kaiser explores the art-historical context of Giebler and Götze, tracing their journey from their early days in East Germany to the present. Their work has been exhibited in numerous cities, including Ahrenshoop, Athens, Bangalore, Berlin, Bonn, Brussels, Düsseldorf, Erfurt, Frankfurt, Halle, Karlsruhe, Kazakhstan, London, Lübeck, Magdeburg, Melbourne, Munich, Napier, Naumburg, New York, Oldenburg, Potsdam, Quedlinburg, Saarbrücken, Schwäbisch Hall, Schweinfurt, Seattle, Sellin, Los Silos, Teterow, and Venice, California.
