In 1957, a surprising package from the GDR 1957 packages were from the West for East Germany nothing special. But a package from the communist GDR for Ursula Dethleffs in the West was a huge surprise. It came from Hennings from Halle an der Saale, the close friends of the family Dethleffs. The octahedron is open symbolizes the package. All that the artist was important turned it into their collage: Parcel, stamps, wrapping paper, Golden Christmas paper ... To complement the sober reality grabbed Ursula Dethleffs bottom nor a cloud pink with red hope for the future.
