Künstler:innen
Lara Azul
Lara Azul sees herself as a mythological figure. Her works are characterised by a fantastic and poetic visual language. In her fairytale-like and mythologically inspired installations and paintings, she sensitively poses the question of how taboo experiences can be brought to light and takes visitors on a journey of discovery into the unspeakable.
Cornelia Renz
Cornelia Renz's large-format works are painted with pigment marker between two panes of acrylic glass. Her artistic work combines graphic quotations with a high-contrast colourfulness, showing how painful experiences can give rise to warlike action on the one hand and how a new, strengthened form of self-power and self-determination can emerge from them on the other.
GODsDOGs
In a palette of vibrant colours, the works of GODsDOGs unfold as a striking contrast to Gerenot Richter's monochromatic intaglio prints. They offer a poetic approach, but also unfold visions of dreamlike and nightmarish scenes and installations that impressively visualise the profound psychological states in the course of confronting trauma.
Gerenot Richter
The impressive drawings and etchings by Gerenot Richter (1926-1991) reveal a deep insight into the war traumas he personally experienced. In his series "After the Storm", his finely crafted depictions show the wounding of nature as a symbol of the tangled inner thicket and invite the viewer on a poetic journey into the hidden depths of the unconscious.
