Hans Greuel

Birthplace: Düsseldorf
Art studies at the Académie Royale des Beaux-Arts in Liège
Annual Exhibition of Düsseldorf Artists
Visual Artists and Authors of Düsseldorf
Artists’ Association Malkasten (Düsseldorf)
Artists’ Card of the State Capital of Düsseldorf
1981 Annual Exhibition of Düsseldorf Artists

http://www.hansgreuel.com

After studying art at the Royal Academy in Liège, Belgium, Hans Greuel studied medicine, and both professions continue to fascinate him.

Today (2007), the 53-year-old general practitioner has his practice in Düsseldorf and enjoys a strong reputation as an artist.

His pivotal experience was a visit to the Native Americans in Arizona – he was able to support the chamanes in both their artistic and medical work and recognized that sculptures, talismans, and rituals are equally valuable elements of treatment alongside non-pharmaceutical therapy.

On this basis, Greuel also reclaimed medicine and art as healing methods and promoted a culture of quiet contemplation and internalization to encourage a return to one’s inner roots as an appropriate path to the demands of modern life.

Nathalie Ackermann

Natalie Ackermann comes from the Rhineland. Her father, Rudolf Ackermann, is German, and her mother is from Barranquilla, Colombia.[1][2] Born in Düsseldorf, she grew up bilingually in the Meerbusch district of Büderich, with German and Spanish as her native languages. As a teenager, she moved to Spain with her brother; later, they both lived with their mother in Barranquilla on the Colombian Caribbean coast.[1] There, she won the title of “Señorita Atlántico” in a regional beauty pageant in 2000.[1]

In 2006, she was elected Miss Germany Universe; previously, she had won the Miss North Rhine-Westphalia pageant and qualified for the Miss Germany competition. After being elected Miss North Rhine-Westphalia, Ackermann, who originally wanted to become a doctor, dropped out of her medical studies at the Heinrich Heine University in Düsseldorf in 2006 to pursue a career as a model and an acting career. She represented Germany at the Miss Universe pageant in Los Angeles, but did not make it into the final of the top 10 participants.[2] She came in 21st place. In 2007, she represented Germany at the Miss Intercontinental pageant in the Bahamas and reached third place. However, job offers as a model and actress in Germany failed to materialize.[3]

She then went to South America, where she worked as a presenter for the television station Azteca TV. She hosted, among other things, the television show “Al Extremo” and the television program “Juntas ni difuntas,” in which she interviewed politicians, athletes, and actors.[1]

Ackermann is also an actress. She took acting lessons in Bogotá. Her acting career began with a supporting role in the successful Colombian telenovela Betty, la fea (Betty, the Ugly One), which was also adapted for German television under the title Verliebt in Berlin (In Love in Berlin). In the soap opera Nuevo rico, nuevo pobre (2007/2008), she played the role of Fabia Schultz. She portrayed a deceitful lover of Austrian-Colombian origin who is plotting a scheme.[2] She had a small role in the Colombian film Este huele mal.[4] In 2009, she played the lead role in the Mexican film Más allá del deber (“Behind the Guilt”). In 2010, she made her Hollywood debut as forensic scientist Dr. Nichols in the horror film The Tenant.

Ernst van Aaken

Ernst van Aaken (16 May 1910, in Emmerich – 2 April 1984, in Schwalmtal-Waldniel) was a German sports physician and athletics trainer. Van Aaken became known as the “Running Doctor” and was the founder of the training method called the Waldnieler Dauerlauf (German: “Waldniel endurance run”). He is generally recognized as the founder of the long slow distance method of endurance training.

As a sports physician, trainer and advocate of new developments he directed himself fanatically to distance running and the training of “pure endurance” (“reine Ausdauer”) with high mileage in the training program. He was an opponent of the method of interval training that prevailed until the mid-1960s. In the early 1960s, van Aaken trained, among others, the German athlete Harald Norpoth, who won silver in the 1964 Olympic Games in Tokyo in the 5000 meters. In 1972 Van Aaken was hit by a car during his own training, which cost him both legs. Since this accident he moved in a wheelchair and became also a champion for disabled sports and wheelchair racing. He also held countless lectures, including in the United States and Japan, and organized running races, especially marathons for women, besides ultra running events

Van Aaken stated that human beings were able to reach the age of 100, if they would not live so “hopelessly unbiologically”. In the “biologic” life style that he advocated, sports played an important role, especially the development of endurance. He lauded a daily endurance run for everybody, also for women, elders and children, combined with moderate eating and drinking. He also held the opinion that the female sex would eventually perform better in endurance events than the male, if all social barriers were dealt with that currently enhinder this. To propagate his ideas, he wrote a number of books, the most famous titled Programmiert für 100 Lebensjahre (“Programmed for lifespan 100”).

an Aaken was an early proponent of women’s running.[3]

In 1967, van Aaken asked Anni Pede, a 27-year-old middle-distance runner and mother of two also from West Germany, and Monika Boers, a 19-year-old from the Netherlands, to participate in a marathon organized by his running club in Waldniel.[4][nb 1] According to German sports historian Karl Lennartz, journalists skeptical of 13-year-old Maureen Wilton‘s recent world best in Toronto, Ontario, Canada asked van Aaken if women and teenagers were capable of such a performance.[4] Mocked and derided for claiming that faster times were indeed possible, van Aaken chose Pede and Boers to prove himself correct.[4] Although the German Athletic Association (Deutscher Leichtathletik-Verband) did not yet officially permit women to run, race officials did allow the two women to start 30 meters behind the men.[4] Pede came in third, her 3:07:26.2 set a new world best, and Boers finished in 3:19:36.3.[4]

Van Aaken had tested this before in women’s cross country races which had no distance limit for women. He had all the support of the regional track & field association of which he was the women’s spokesman which facilitated his tasks to further women’s athletics
