Museum Gugging, Maria Gugging, Austria

Nine works by Oswald Tschirtner are part of the exhibition in museum Gugging.

Oswald Tschirtner (1920–2007) create with a minimum of form and colour a maximum of expression. He drew “headfooters” - long human figures whose four limbs were equally long and had no body. The radical simplification distinguishes his works; he visualized objects in a minimalist manner, using only a few lines to represent buildings or landscapes.

The Infeld House of Culture in Halbturn is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year. More than 100 exhibitions by well-known national and international artists, more than 100 concerts took place during this time. Admission for visitors is free.

In the anniversary year there is an exhibition with artworks by the Viennese artist Kurt Kramer (1945-2008). Color, tone and word were existential basic terms for Kramer's life. It was filled equally with painting, drawing, music and writing.

The artist wrote: "The deep meaning of art is to silently awaken the gift in people to experience the story of their own feelings."

Klovicevi Dvori Gallery, Zagreb, Croatia 

One work from the Infeld Collection is part from the exhibition in “Klovicevi dvori”: The Watercolour „In the garden of pigs“ from the year 1933 is an early work from Ivan Generalic, one of the most popular Croatian naïve artists.

The emergence of Zemlja Association of Artists in 1929 radically changed the Croatian art scene between the two wars. Zemlja was a group of academically educated artists (Krsto Hegedusic), peasants (Ivan Generalic) and workers.

The Infeld Haus of Culture in Halbturn dedicates a personal exhibition to the artist Josef Bramer. He is regarded as a poetic loner in the Austrian art scene.

Josef Bramer paints in old master technique with meticulous accuracy without any loud pathos. As a graduate of Rudolf Hausner's master class at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna, he was given a precise description of the object and richly nuanced colors. Josef Bramer creates his silent but urgent messages with reliable skill and confident knowledge without submitting to fashion.

His paintings seems like an inner monologue. Quiet, self-contained, Josef Bramer fully fills his formats with tremendous perseverance.

Infeld Haus der Kultur in Halbturn shows a personal exhibition of the Austrian artist Florentina Pakosta. She devoted herself to art against every external resistance. At the beginning of her work reacted Pakosta in her drawings to the discrimination against women in the Austrian society in general and in the art scene concrete.

In the 1990s turned Florentina Pakosta gradually away from black-and-white, figurative work in favor of an abstract visual language. Until today, she creates series of characteristic tricolor paintings, which emerge from the experienced emotion.

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.

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.
