Exhibition Daniela Atzwanger
The works exhibited by the artist explore the connection between emotions, experiences, and their symbolic reflection in reality, illustrating how emotions themselves are perceived, processed, and artistically transformed into new forms. They also address fundamental themes of the human condition, such as fear and hope, dream and awareness, relationships and solitude. This polarity is reflected in the composition of the background, which often contrasts with the organic subject through subtle tones and geometric shapes. The clearly defined figures express a very free and at times bold chromatic concept, while various color application techniques give rise to patterns and graphic forms. The viewer’s imagination is stimulated by delicate symbols, allowing the works to resonate in reality as visual echoes.
Daniela Atzwanger, born in 1977 in Brunico, studied graphic design in Bressanone and educational sciences and politics in Innsbruck. Since 2006, she has exhibited in South Tyrol, Hangzhou (China), and Venice. She lives and works in Bolzano. Opening: Thursday, 09th of October, 6:30 PM Introduction: Dr. Lukas Plancker, President of the cultural association “Tublà da Nives”. The exhibition will be open to visitors until January 9, 2026. Opening Hours Monday - Friday: 8:00 AM – 12:00 PM Thursday: 8:00 AM – 12:00 PM & 4:00 PM – 6:30 PM

Europe’s largest monastery complex in Tirol/Tirolo.

Founded in 1142 by the Bishop of Brixen/Bressanone at the intersection of two important routes - the Brenner and the route to the Pustertal valley - the Augustinian Neustift Canons Regular Monastery was recognized, among other things, as a hospice and rest area for pilgrims. Today the Monastery makes a name for itself as a place of agriculture, culture and education. From the monastery winery to the herb garden, from the electricity plant to the educational center, several businesses are united in the monastery.

The Augustinian Neustift Canons Regular Monastery in Vahrn/Varna is the largest Monastery complex in Tirol/Tirolo. The Monastery has an holistic conception and was independent and versatile from its very foundation. A walk through the Monastery complex will let you understand its size and importance as a former important cultural and economic hub of the Eisacktal/Valle Isarco valley. The first thing that will catch your eye are the architectural elements: Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque. With the Engelsburg, the late Baroque collegiate church, the Gothic cloister, the miracle fountain, the library’s unique manuscripts and the historic Pinakothek, the Augustinian Neustift Canons Regular Monastery is one of the most remarkable sights of the Eisacktal valley.
