Great, thanks a lot!
Just if anyone is encountering the same problem, that´s what I did:

run "mingw32-make" in the directory where you want to build Paraview (if you have not done it yet, add the path of the MinGW -executables to your PATH variable)
run "mingw32-make install" in this directory 

then you should find a paraview.exe file in C:\Programme\Paraview

Greetings,
Natalie Happenhofer
