The parish barn in Trausdorf an der Wulka, Austria

90 printed graphic works by Friedensreich Hundertwasser from the Infeld collection become a part from the exhibition „Hundertwasser“ in Trausdorf.

Hundertwasser was undoubtedly one of the greatest Austrian visual artists of the 20th century. He was a painter, graphic artist, architect, activist and globetrotter in personal union.

In his art, he reinvented the color scheme and revolutionized the printmaking.

Tone Fink

Infeld Haus der Kultur

02.03.2019 to 02.06.2019

The Infeld House of Culture in Halbturn pays tribute to Tone Fink on his 75th birthday and exhibits works from the protagonist from the 1970s to 2018.

Energetic, imaginative and versatile, he is a pictorial lateral thinker. For Tone Fink, the boundaries between art genres exist in order to be skipped, because he needs variety and is a draftsman, painter, object artist, actionist and performer, filmmaker and art teacher.

The Early Work

LASSNIG – RAINER

Infeld Travelling Collection

01.02.2019 to 19.05.2019

Lentos Museum, Linz

Maria Lassnig and Arnulf Rainer rank among Austria’s most successful artists. Lassnig would be 100 this year, Rainer celebrates his 90th birthday. The two first met in Klagenfurt in 1948. The years they spent together proved of seminal importance for both their works.

The exhibition at the Lentos Museum puts on display works that illustrate points the two artists had in common as well as individual forms of expression.

Philipp Schöpke.!

Infeld Travelling Collection

25.10.2018 to 10.03.2019

Museum Gugging, Maria Gugging, Austria

The oeuvre of Philipp Schöpke (1921-1998) is enigmatic and fascinating. With great endurance, he made the human figures transparent and their heart and reproductive organs visible.
The fate of this creative mind is exemplary for all those Art Brut artists whose work went unheeded because of their position on the margins of society.
Three drawings from the Infeld collection become a part from the exhibition in the Museum Gugging.

Infeld Haus der Kultur

02.06.2018 to 12.08.2018

The Infeld House of Culture in Halbturn honors Walter Schmögner on his 75th birthday.

As the son of the painter Theobald Schmögner, Walter Schmögner came into contact with art at an early age. His talent already was evident at school. After completing his master class, he exhibited his quirky pen and ink drawings in Vienna for the first time. Since then he has been exploring the astonishing, the strange and the quirky with meticulous attention to detail. His work was and remains astonishingly diverse and wide-ranging.
