"Fugues"
Dagmar Bergmann was born in Hamburg, the daughter of refugees from East Germany. From an early age she felt attracted by the call of the fugues, above all as a form of escape in search of an identity that had been erased by poverty and oblivion. The landscapes of those fugues were blue, a promise of freedom and truth like the fragments of sky Northern clouds sometimes reveal.
Once more the colour blue guided Dagmar Bergmann when she chose to leave Germany and escape for good to a land of skies and seas where inner and outer fugues echo in unison.
Between winds and tides the artist set up her easel and sought to express the turbulence of fugues ("Mistral", "Four Winds", "Youth", "In the Land of Fugues") and their secret harmony ("Equinox", "Night Sheds its Leaves", "Night Transfigured", "Time after Time"), setting free sounds and fragrances ("Sunrise Jazz", "Perfume", "The Song of the Mariachi") which invite us, too, to escape.

"Fugas"
Nacida en Hamburgo, de padres refugiados de la Alemania del Este, Dagmar Bergmann sintió ya de muy jóven la llamada de las fugas. Fugas en sí misma primero, en busca de una identidad borrada por la pobreza y el olvido. Los paisajes de estas fugas interiores son azules, promesas de libertad y de verdad, a semejanza de los fragmentos de cielo que a veces las nubes del Norte dejan entrever. Entre vientos y mareas, la artista planta su caballete para expresar la turbulencia de las fugas ("Mistral", "Cuatro Vientos", "Juventud", "En el Pais de las Fugas") con su armonía secreta ("Equinoccio", "La Noche se deshoja", "Noche Transfigurada", "Time after Time"), liberando sonidos y perfumes ("Sunrise Jazz", "Perfume", "Canción del Mariachi") que también nos invitan a fugar.

El azul sigue guiando a Dagmar Bergmann, cuando decide dejar la Alemania hacia cielos y mares donde fuga interior y fuga exterior se contestan y se armonizan.
