Koblenz. Yesterday, works of art were auctioned off at the Ludwig Museum as part of the "Art and Culture in the Ahr Valley" aid project for the flood disaster. Among the donated paintings were those of Rubens Prize winners Sigmar Polke and Rupprecht Geiger, as well as that of the Siegen-based photo artist Thomas Kellner. The total amount of the campaign, the proceeds of which are to benefit artists in the affected region, is approximately 137,000 euros, as reported by SWR.
