ENDLESS ART

HEIDE & MAKIS WARLAMIS

 09. 11. 2024 - 20. 04. 2025

In close cooperation with the Waldviertel Art Museum, the Angerlehner Museum is presenting a major exhibition of the universal artist Makis (Efthymios) Warlamis, who died in 2016, in dialogue with selected works by the artist Heide Warlamis.

For the artists Makis and Heide, art was and is a medium that permeates, shapes and renews all areas of life. A holistic approach that particularly characterizes the work of the artist-architect Makis Warlamis. In his working method, he does not bow to any boundaries, neither stylistic, thematic, art-immanent, nor those between cultures and ways of thinking.

In a deeply humane approach to art, for which art and community are inseparable, he has spent his life creating living spaces that work harmoniously with nature and art, in analogy to the universal fabric of all living things. In his large-format works, he illustrates ideas and alternative paths in an exemplary manner and provides food for thought for our future.

This comprehensive exhibition will transform the large exhibition hall into a meeting space and is a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the diverse work of Makis and Heide Warlamis - let yourself be surprised!

With "Collector's Choice | Angerlehner x Löw-Radeschnig", the Museum Angerlehner presents a unique selection of previously unpublicized works of art from the renowned private art collections of Heinz J. Angerlehner and Brigitte Löw-Radeschnig.

This exhibition format is a consistent continuation of the founding idea of ​​the Museum Angerlehner, to make contemporary art and important private collections accessible to a broad public.

"Collector's Choice | Angerlehner x Löw-Radeschnig" brings together a remarkable number of different artistic positions from both collections, which exemplify both the multifaceted nature of contemporary art and the individual dynamics of a private art collection.

The exhibition illustrates the passion of these two art collectors and provides rare insights into their different approaches and preferences, which are reflected in the diversity and creativity of the works on display - an exciting dialogue that will have an impact beyond the museum visit.

KID GUARDS

Josef florian krichbaum

25. 01. - 11. 05. 2025

The Angerlehner Museum is presenting the first solo show in a museum of the artist Josef Florian Krichbaum in Austria with the exhibition "Kid Guards", which is curated by the writer Franzobel. The focus is on the figure of the eponymous "Kid Guard", who is characterized by a "naive wisdom" - a basic tenor that runs through the entire exhibition.

In his works, the artist meticulously condenses up to 20 thin layers of oil paint into almost three-dimensional image compositions that oscillate between realism and fantasy. Krichbaum uses the visual language of pop surrealism, combining the aesthetics of the Old Masters and those of comics to create a globally current visual language.

The exhibition "Kid Guards" offers an exciting insight into Krichbaum's unique work, which, especially in a time of upheaval and uncertainty, shows how refreshing and important a childlike, carefree view can be in opening up new perspectives for our future.
