Edward B.
Gordon
 e artist created the TSalzgitter calendar for 2016
hat is very exciting!“  ese were the  rst thoughts of the artist Edward B. Gordon upon seeing photos of steel and tube production. In spring 2015, the painter
then visited the factory buildings for himself and observed the blast furnace tapping and the casting, rolling and coating steps in the Salzgitter AG plants. Countless impressions in uenced the artist, who  lled ten sketchbooks with drawings and any number of hard disks with photos:  is was the basis for Salzgitter AG’s 2016 company calendar.
 e work with the Salzgitter Group changed the artist’s working method. “Previously, I only worked with the brush, but now I also use rollers or spat- ulas, and I  nd them to be an incredible enrich- ment,” says Gordon.  e people in the Salzgitter Group impressed him. “Everywhere I went, I was received with interest and openness, and I owe a
lot to the em- ployees who helped me.  is is another reason that I wanted to be sure that my contribution to this calendar was a good one.”
He creat-
ed some 30 pictures from March to September, and 13 of these were used for the calendar. “ ey show our group’s diversity, and
what can be made out steel, which is a fascinating material,” says Frank Seinsche, head of Corporate Design und Events.  e public will have an oppor- tunity to view all of the works in an exhibition in 2018.
