Events in der Dolomitenregion Gröden

Participating Artists: Alessandra Carloni – Armin Grunt – Chelita Zuckermann – Hubert Mussner – Ivan Lardschneider – Mario Ricci – Matthias Kostner – Silvia Scaringella – Walter Pancheri "NATURAL-MENTE" emerges from the desire to explore the profound, fragile, and ever-changing relationship between humans and nature. A relationship that is increasingly at the center of contemporary discourse – between environmental crisis and the rediscovery of the organic, between technology and the longing to feel at home somewhere. The exhibition brings together nine contemporary artists – with diverse backgrounds, experiences, and forms of expression – united by a common intention: to offer a personal and poetic vision of our connection to the natural world through sculpture and painting. Two artistic souls engage in dialogue within the exhibition: On the one hand, sculpture, linked to Val Gardena’s tradition of woodcarving, capable of translating human experience and the yearning for nature into form; On the other hand, painting, rooted in various Italian regions, which explores inner landscapes, symbolic metamorphoses, and dreamlike visions. Many of the artworks are site-specific and interweave in a dialogue between material and imagination, memory and transformation. The result is an immersive journey that offers no definitive answers but instead poses questions: What place does humanity hold in nature? And what place does nature hold within us? OPENING HOURS: Every day from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM. On Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays also from 8:00 PM to 10:00 PM. Closed on Mondays.

When walking in nature with your eyes open, you will find lots of materials that can be used to create surprising things. In the small workshop in the centre of Ortisei, pebbles, moss, seeds, wood, leaves, pinecones, and other natural materials are used to build small works of art together with the children. Thanks to this workshop the creations can be taken home and remind even after the holidays what great things can be made with such simple materials and a little imagination.

-- Storia y cultura -- A (Guided) Journey Through Time. Strolling through Ortisei is like traveling through time. Historic villas from the turn of the century, once home to artists and entrepreneurs, take us back to an era when woodcarving brought prosperity to Val Gardena.
