Change art: Werner Reiterer's provocative exhibition enthusiastic!
In a fascinating exhibition in the Linz Castle Museum, the artist Werner Reiterer shows how he tests the expectations of visitors with his creative interventions. Under the title "The Mind Hacker", Reiterer confronts the guests with historical wooden sculptures of saints, who surprisingly wear their own portrait. The entire exhibition space, encouraged by sudden noises, literally seems to breathe and asks the audience to actively participate. The artist's work addresses the complex interplay between the individual and the community as well as between humans and objects, which results in the central question: "Who are we?" reports OTS .
art in detail
A remarkable part of the exhibition are 80 drawings of Reiterers, which are presented in a specially designed room. These drawings form the conceptual basis of his projects that have been created for decades. Particular attention is paid to the development of his artistic work and the philosophical issues that are behind his installations. Reiterer, who was born in Graz in 1964 and currently lives in Vienna, brings a breath of fresh air to the contemporary art scene with his work.
The Karl Pollender City Museum in Werne also presents an impressive review of the past of the local SIM JÜ fair with poster reprints by the former city graphic Karl Losch. These posters, which are available for six euros each, show the development of the popular folk festival and reflect the zeitgeist over the years. Dr. Constanze Döhrer, the head of the city museum, as well as Heidelore Fertil-Möller, chair of the association, informed that two original works by the artist Heinrich Repke were now brought from an online auction to the museum. These paintings, which present historical scenes of Werne and awake memories, significantly expand the wealth of the urban art collection, as reports.
