Mbiti, Weiss, Winkler - Habitat

19th October 2019 to 26th January 2020

Vermeintliche Gewissheiten von Form und deren Repräsentation werden in der Ausstellung Habitat in Frage gestellt. Daniel Winkler stellt seine körperhaften Entgrenzungen einem dualistischen Weltsystem entgegen und überführt sie in eine universelle Einheit.

Joan Miró - Sculptures

24th August to 24th November

Joan Miró (1893-1983) is one of the artists responsible for establishing Classical Modernism. After studying art in Barcelona his initial creative work is of a representational nature, but as of the 20th century it increasingly looks into the artistic trends arising from France which were conquering the world. Relocating to Paris his work still initially displays influences stemming from Les Fauves and Cubism before becoming associated with Surrealism.
