The Cultural Council of Appiano presents a new exhibition at the Laechler Gallery in Castelrotto, showcasing the works of Bolzano-based artist Marco Rauzi. The opening will take place on 27 August at 6:00 PM. The exhibition is curated by Jahel Beer within the framework of her cultural project Noi da voi, which aims to foster artistic and cultural exchange both within the province and beyond. A trained graphic designer, Rauzi explores various techniques, with a particular preference for stippling – a contemporary dot technique in which images emerge from countless small points that create tonal depth and shading. This graphic section of the exhibition highlights the artist’s precision, skill, and imagination, through works in ink, pencil, and color. In contrast, the second part of the exhibition surprises with colorful oil and acrylic paintings inspired by India. These works reflect Rauzi’s spiritual journey and convey that India is not merely folklore but a source of universal values and spirituality. The exhibition is enriched with quotations from the Bhagavad Gita, India’s ancient sacred text, and from the Book of Psalms. By intertwining Western and Eastern traditions, graphic rigor and vibrant spirituality, the exhibition invites visitors on a journey through precision, imagination, and inner depth.

Art Exhibition by Tessandra LoCicero Art Evolution: My Journey into Art

Since 1994, UNIKA has served as a premier platform for sculpture, painting, and photography by local and regional artists. Each year, UNIKA artists present their works at a variety of events, fairs, and exhibitions – most notably the acclaimed UNIKA Art Fair and the biennial Idea Unika – Art in the Centre. The UNIKA Art Fair proudly looks back on 31 successful years. During this time, over a hundred artists have showcased their work to a discerning and art-loving audience. A particular highlight was the anniversary edition in 2019, which featured internationally renowned artists such as Aron Demetz, Peter Demetz, Bruno Walpoth, Gregor Prugger, and Wilhelm Senoner. From September 11 to 14, 2025, the 31st edition of the UNIKA Art Fair will take place in the tennis hall of Ortisei-Runggaditsch. Sculptors, painters, photographers, and woodturners will present more than 200 unique and diverse artworks. The exhibition is open daily from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM. The fair will be officially opened with a vernissage on September 10, 2025, while Unika’s Long Night will take place on September 13 – an inspiring evening celebrating art, atmosphere, and human connection. Under the motto "Literature meets Art", three young writers from South Tyrol – Lissy Pernthaler, Nadia Rungger, and Maddalena Fingerle – draw inspiration from the artworks of Unika. Through an intensive engagement with the artists’ creations, poetic texts emerge that interpret the works with sensitivity and open up new perspectives. These and other texts will be presented during the evening, accompanied by live music performed by Ariel Trettl.

Transart is a multidisciplinary festival, which involves its audience in the exciting exploration of new contemporary frontiers, through a multiplicity of expressive languages and their innovations: from classical to electronic music, from figurative arts to performance, and from cinema to new digital technologies.

The photographic project by Viviana Perghem and Camilla Poli was developed in collaboration with painter Italo Bressan, creating a synergy between photography and painting. Opening: Friday 12/09/2025 – 6pm – In-depth analysis of the artistic journey with art historian and curator Federico Mazzonelli. The photographers chose to document the different forms of colour blindness — visual anomalies mainly due to genetic causes — which involve an alteration in colour perception. The photographic work analyses the three main types of colour blindness: ● Protanopia (insensitivity to red) ● Deuteranopia (insensitivity to green) ● Tritanopia (insensitivity to blue, purple and yellow) The stories of six people affected by these conditions are told through images that describe their daily lives. Photographic post-production techniques are used to simulate the perception of colours by those affected by colour blindness.

In my long career as a fashion photographer, travel has always been a fundamental and exciting part of my work. I’ve worked in many different places—from Peru to Australia, the United States to India—facing challenges like high altitudes, difficult weather conditions, and unusual means of transport. With my team—comprising stylists, models, and assistants—I have always tried to tell stories of fashion through unique landscapes and cities. This exhibition, hosted at the Hans Glauber Library in Toblach, presents a selection of my photographs that not only showcase fashion but also share the adventures I experienced during my travels. I am happy to share my work with the public and hope that the exhibition will entertain and inspire all who visit. — Giovanni Lunardi

The exhibition reflects the current phase of Maurizio Ciancia’s artistic work since 2016. The theme of his work is the personal search for “emptiness,” understood as an intimate dimension where one can find order, balance, and silence – practically a counterpoint to the excesses of everyday life. To express this concept of emptiness, Ciancia uses the metaphor of space. The subjects of his photographs are therefore architectural contexts, reproduced through a precise linguistic scheme that has taken shape over the years in the development of this project. The exhibition space itself plays an important role. The clean lines create an ideal context for presenting the works and support the linguistic intention of creating a unique installation framework in which the visitor can feel physically immersed. A space that represents an extension of the idea of space that Maurizio Ciancia intends to share with his photographs. The generous rooms have also made it possible to integrate a small selection of works from the early stages of this creative period, installations from 2017. The aim is to share the evolution of vision and language that has taken place over these years – from the beginning until today. The ground floor features works created between 2020 and 2023, while the first floor is entirely dedicated to works produced in 2025. The prints are by Stefano Ciol. The exhibition also includes a corner dedicated to the projection of a video created as part of “Narrazioni Spaziali,” an event organized by MAKE Spazio Espositivo and exhibited at Studio GEZA Architettura. The sequence of images is accompanied by sound compositions by Luca Colussi. Opening hours: Daily from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm Closed on Mondays

The exhibition NATURAL ELEMENTS, taking place from May 31 to October 19, 2025, in Seis am Schlern, presents a selection of works by Ahrntal artist Alois Steger.

Working with multimedia, the artist, together with curator Eva von Ingram Harpf, has selected seven artworks for the village center of this Dolomite village, which integrate symbiotically into the historical setting.

Created from natural elements and materials, the works are designed to gradually change over the course of the exhibition due to weathering.

"Boom '70" takes you back to a time of upheaval and economic growth in South Tyrol during the 1970s and 1980s. Modern travelers now arrive by car, reaching even more remote regions. The number of overnight stays explodes, rising from ten to twenty million – mass tourism is here. In the exhibition, contemporary witnesses share stories of the clash between contrasting worlds: industry meets tourism, poverty meets prosperity, church meets bikini. It’s about first encounters with strangers, new roles for women, and friendships across borders – but also about stress, construction frenzy, and tough working conditions.

Michael Höllrigl’s expressive stone and bronze sculptures will adorn the gardens of the Kränzelhof in 2025, true to his motto “The hand knows more than the head.” “Letting you dream on and on” is the goal of the sculpture exhibition. Whether it’s nearly untouched wilderness or an enchanting cultural landscape, gardens represent the longing for paradise: Tamed nature and untamed inner worlds meet and perhaps grow together. In a place shaped by the interplay of nature and culture, like the Kränzelhof, the things of nature and the things of art point to each other in a way that echoes Joseph von Eichendorff’s immortal line from the poem “Wünschelrute”: “A song sleeps in all things, which dream on and on...” Organisation Kulturverein K.art. 15.00-18.00 (free admission) Price: Garden entry

The LanAntiqua Festival, organised by the LanAntiqua Association, aims to give "early music", which is an inexhaustible source of inspiration, its deserved place in the cultural life of Lana. This music, which is not limited to any epoch, covers the periods from the Middle Ages to Romanticism. The festival's highest maxim is: original sound, i.e. the performance of the music in an appropriate sound setting on instruments of the period and with the knowledge gained from the historical performance practice handed down in treatises. Thanks to imposing venues such as the church Maria Himmelfahrt in Niederlana with its impressive altar by Hans Schnatterpeck and its special acoustics, top-class concert enjoyment is pre-programmed.

Profanter Immobilien invites you to an exhibition at ArtSpace in Seis, Schlernstraße 16: Anuschka Prossliner & Markus Gasser „TRAUMFÄNGER | ACCHIAPPASOGNI“ (Dreamcatcher) 06.2025-01.2026 "The present is merely a transit space, a void between inklings and memories—those are the true places of our experience. In these floating realms, Anuschka Prossliner weaves a delicate net of childhood fragments, fantasies, illusions, and expectations. Dreamscapes with a magical hue, where the fragile remnants of happiness and longing dangle by a silk thread—yet remain accessible to dreamwalkers. In contrast, Markus Gasser’s dream world is more grounded and earthy. He turns his gaze to matter itself, to stone, and searches for ideas, thought fragments, heads and faces, which he draws to the surface through obsessive shaping—forming them into peoples." Anuschka Prossliner (1972) consistently reveals a fondness for the fragmentary, the sketch-like, the unfinished. The dot is her constant companion: quiet, reserved, yet precise. With an introspective gaze, she presents fleeting figures, silent beings, fragments of an inner world. Markus Gasser (1970) has long been devoted to the motif of the head – heads in dialogue with each other, deeply rooted in the earth, like flowers in a field. Sculpted forms in stones of all kinds – large and small, rough and smooth – that nevertheless represent only part of the whole. by arrangement +39 0471 707248 | immobilien@agentur-profanter.com

Dolomythos-Museum at Innichen presents: Women scientists Many women, hardly mentioned in earlier times, made important contributions. We honour these often forgotten personalities, as well as the reserches of ordinary people from the valleys.

On the occasion of the Euregio Museum Year 2025, dedicated to the 500th anniversary of the Tyrolean Peasants’ Revolt of 1525 – a historic turning point that continues to raise essential questions about power structures, social justice, political participation, and the potential for societal change – the Hofburg Bressanone presents a two-part exhibition project that sets history and the present in a dialogical relationship. The two exhibitions, 1525-2025. Irruption-Subversion-Renewal (29 March – 31 August 2025) and ETÀ, ÉTATS (12 September 2025 – 11 January 2026), explore the theme of societal transformation from different perspectives. They share a central conceptual motif: rupture as a starting point for movement, encounter, and new forms of social thinking. ETÀ, ÉTATS links the father-son relationship between Robert and Johannes Bosisio to the socially relevant question of intergenerational dialogue. In the spatial and conceptual design, the two artists meet in the center of the exhibition area, while their independent positions are situated at opposite ends of the sequence of rooms. At this central point of encounter, the focus is less on comparison and more on exchange: a dialogical coexistence aimed at connecting different experiences, ways of thinking, and perspectives.

With Graffiti, Museion presents the first institutional exhibition in Italy to focus on the relationship between graffiti and contemporary fine art, and how they have influenced each other. Instead of historicizing graffiti as an “outsider” practice, the show combines works by renowned artists who used spray paint between the 1950s and 1970s, paintings by legendary graffiti writers from the 1980s, and a wide range of exhibits by international contemporary artists who have incorporated graffiti into their work for various reasons and in multiple forms. Graffiti also introduces a new long-term Museion research line focusing on soft and non-violent forms of resistance, and on art as a social and urban practice.

With the photo series “Existential Dualism”, Bolzano-based artist Elisa Cappellari explores the presence of animals in urban spaces and the subtle boundary between nature and society, between the wild and the domesticated. The 14 photographs, taken between 2019 and 2023 in Italy, the Netherlands, Austria, and Slovakia, portray animals — such as giraffes, dogs, snakes, or cattle — in everyday, human-shaped environments: streets, zoos, museums, stables, or shops. The images speak of relationships marked by proximity and distance, dependence and power, inviting viewers to reflect on how animals are perceived in contemporary society — as living beings, but also as symbols, ornaments, or tools. Completing the exhibition are five poetic texts that delicately explore the relationship between animal, space, and observer. “I photograph animals that live alongside us. I’m interested in what happens when one living being encounters another — maybe something is born that goes beyond the image,” says Elisa Cappellari. The artist was selected as one of the four winners of the 2024 Open Call launched by the museum, focused on the relationship between humans, animals, and nature. The exhibition is included in the museum admission ticket and can be visited between the first and second floors.

Scenes of peaceful life of shepherds and grazing animals, of hard work in adverse weather and in mostly uncomfortable areas: the cultural history of pastoralism moves between these two poles. When people began to settle in the Alps, bringing their domestic animals with them, the post-glacial landscape began to change. The exhibition illustrates the steps of this development up to today's debate about grazing animals and their predators. Sculptures, models, games, interviews and videos on the work of shepherds together with their dogs provide insights into the cultural practice of pastoralism and the importance of shepherds, who not only protect the flock from wolves. Shepherding can in fact play a decisive role on the environment, biodiversity, animal welfare, climate and human nutrition.
