Christine Keruth's exhibition "Ghost Ships on the Havel – Lines of Vision" presents her series of works: 15 paintings in a unique combination of oil, acrylic, and ink on canvas. The starting point is historic sailing yachts designed between 1900 and 1911 by the renowned yacht designers Max Oertz and Otto Protzen, whose designs significantly shaped sailing on the Havel River.

The works combine technical drawings from the early 20th century with contemporary imagery such as water surfaces, water lilies, landscapes, and figures. This creates a compelling synthesis of precision and painterly freedom, of past and present.
The Pomona Temple, with its panoramic view of the Havel, provides the ideal exhibition space. Here, the yachts once at home on the Havel become visible again as "ghostly ships"—poetic images of remembrance poised between construction, landscape, and imagination. The exhibition understands the Havel as a symbolic space where art, technology, and history overlap and can be experienced anew.
