Sommerkunst im Steinhaus

Summer art in the Steinhaus - Invitation to the vernissage "Secret Garden - Wide Field"

Jutta Loch - Collages
Anne-Bé Talirz - sculptures & prints

Sunday, August 17, 2 p.m., Hötzeneck 5, 4116 St. Ulrich i.M.

Under the title "Geheimer Garten - Weites Feld" (Secret Garden - Vast Field), two artists will be exploring the eternal questions of humanity in the temporary summer art exhibition at the Steinhaus gallery on the Oberzauner farm in 2025. Jutta Loch, who lives in Berlin and Denmark, and Anne-Bé Talirz, who was born in the Netherlands and lives in Schwarzenberg am Böhmerwald, invite you on an exciting art expedition.

Jutta Loch creates something new from something old. School wall maps form the source material for her works. With humor and depth, she collages a prefabricated school knowledge with finely cut out paper figures, old embroideries, literary quotations or small sculptures to create a new, different story. The resulting secret garden by Jutta Loch is full of surprises. Strong women, such as those found in the biblical Book of Ruth, meet pin-up girls, harlequins or comedians in a counter-cultural and poetic way. In another cycle, she takes up the theme of hay, grain and harvest, thus creating a link to the exhibition space hayloft.

Anne-Bé Talirz uses her papier-mâché and plaster figures in the Steinhaus to make a strong statement on themes relating to prejudice, equality and power relations in society. A kind of walk-in "sculptural song of freedom" welcomes the viewer. Because, according to the artist: "Everyone should have the opportunity to realize their dreams and develop in a peaceful world." In the Stadel, the highly versatile artist presents her most recent prints and sculptures, which allude to the theme "Secret Garden - Wide Field" and make the invisible, the secret and the concealed visible.

The exhibition will be accompanied musically by the guitar duo Pink Glasses - Martina Leopoldseder and Christoph Wolf.

I look forward to immersing ourselves in "Secret Garden - Wide Field" together. To strengthen the "will to see" there will be something to eat and drink ~ Anita Prammer
