“A school named after an artist? That’s unusual.” That’s what you might be thinking as we stand before the St. Mataré-Gymnasium. This school, nestled in Meerbusch-Büderich, is named after a man who found beauty in unity, Ewald Mataré. The very logo of this school speaks volumes about him. It’s his “Zueinander” motif, a testament to his belief in the interconnectedness of things. Imagine it, a symbol from 1953, bridging the gap between art and education. Mataré, the artist who once called Büderich home, is now part of its educational fabric. This school, founded in 1968, buzzes with the energy of almost 1000 students. They walk the same halls where the spirit of Mataré’s philosophy resonates. And if you listen closely, you might just hear the echoes of his artistic vision in the laughter and learning that fills the air.
