New White Cubes in Linz: Art that inspires and connects!
New White Cubes in Linz: Art that inspires and connects!
The new exhibition rooms, the so -called White Cubes, were ceremoniously opened in Linz today. Governor Thomas Stelzer (ÖVP) described the White Cubes as "innovative exhibition and mediation concepts", which combine technical excellence with artistic diversity. In the next two years, alternating exhibitions are primarily planned to gradually be integrated into the collection concept of the individual floors.The next phase in the redesign of the permanent exhibitions includes significant changes. This includes the dismantling of the arcade in the second castle courtyard and a reorganization of the archeology department, original and early history. This will further enrich the artistic presentation in the castle museum.
First exhibitions in the White Cube
A highlight of the opening is the staff exhibition by the artist Elmar Trenkwalder, which is curated by Genoveva Rückert. Trenkwalder shows fifteen ceramic sculptures, installations and graphics in his total work. Most recently, he was active in the Gmundner Keramik Manufaktur and presented work on the occasion of the Culture Capital of Europe Bad Ischl Salzkammergut 2024.
The Oölkg also aims to pay more attention to outstanding Upper Austrian artists. In this context, the Welserin, Born Elisabeth Plank, is presented by curator Gabriele Spindler. Plank presents an early work and its latest series "Ponds" and "Lyrics". Her painting focuses on the investigation of basic picturesque principles and dispenses with narrative elements.
In addition, the exhibition "Vienna - Linz around 1900", curated by Michaela Seiser and Sabine Sobotka, is opened. This exhibition addresses Fin de Siècle and shows works of important artists, including Tina Blau, Gustav Klimt and Oskar Kokoschka. Upper Austrian artists such as Alfred Kubin and Klemens Brosch also pay attention. The role of regional shooting springs of modernity, including Michaela Pfaffinger and Tina Kofler, is also discussed

The exhibition organizer acts as a central contact and uses art historical knowledge to optimally network and manage all components. A successful exchange between all participants is of the utmost importance to ensure an impressive art experience, so art bridle-dohrmann.de in their explanations on the exhibition organization.
