Having heard of the Zonta Says NO to Violence Against Women campaign, Bernd Caspar Dietrich, a renowned German artist, spontaneously decided to make a generous gift to an Offenburg Zontian.

“Metamorphose Orange25” is the title of the impressive painting that illustrates violence against women both as a threat hovering over the entire globe and the power of all the efforts to jointly combat it. The Zontian who received the painting is selling it through an art gallery in Düsseldorf. T

he artist is delighted and, collaborating with another Düsseldorf gallery, produced 99 fine hand-colored prints of the painting.

On 25 November, Offenburg and Düsseldorf Zontians met to kick off the sale. Every euro made through the sale will go to three women’s shelters.
