Hello,

My name is Svenja Wichmann and I am researching an art project that aims to explore and establish interrelationships between several places named Dresden in the United States and the City of Dresden in Saxony, Germany.

I am a postgraduate student in Fine Arts at the Academy of Fine Arts Dresden (Germany) and gained the stipend of the state of saxony in 2013 for my postgraduate studies. Since I am currently living in Dresden, Germany I plan to travel to the United States in September 2014 to visit Dresden in Maine, New York, Ohio, Tennessee and Kansas.

Any information you may provide about historical or current connections and relations between your Dresden and other places named Dresden in the United States or Germany would be helpful for me. I am looking for stories, friendships, personal experiences, historic and present events, visits to Dresden, family history, political connections and anything else that may cross your mind. I am interested in stories, pictures, reports or numbers of the past and present Life in Dresden.

I would highly appreciate your help in finding any related information for my research. Please forward my contact to anyone who might be interested to share his or her experience or thoughts about Dresden.

Thank you very much in advance for your efforts! Please let me know if you have any further questions about my project.

Yours faithfully,

Svenja Wichmann
