A 'tail' of Two Towns
By Steve Gould.
Connecting towns through art, culture and conversation.
Artist & Author Steve Gould ~ Skegness Pier, England
In 2025, Skegness artist Steve Gould crossed borders and stories, launching his first book in Germany as part of Gandersheim Reads, held in the historic city of Bad Gandersheim.
A year on, he will return, and so too will the cats, as their adventure continues into a new chapter of imagination and friendship.
The launch will coincide with celebrations honouring Roswitha, one of Germany’s earliest female poets, whose words were born in Bad Gandersheim and continue to inspire across the centuries.
Steve first exhibited in Bad Gandersheim in 2012 as part of the Made in England exhibition, marking the beginning of a lasting creative connection with the town.
He returned in 2025 to present his Living in a Box project during the Gandersheim Reads Festival — an event that brought artists, writers, and audiences together to celebrate creativity and storytelling.
The festival’s guest of honour was Margarete von Schwarzkopf, whose presence added to the sense of occasion and cultural exchange that Steve’s work continues to inspire.
