You will be inspired by unique, exceptional opals and precious stones. Light and lively with a flowing, nature-identical setting. At C+J Kurzmann, handcrafted jewellery meets artistic design. Augusto Zunin (Venezia) student Christine Kurzmann and her husband Jürgen will be presenting the latest jewellery creations with fascinating and sometimes rare opals and other precious stones as part of an appealing exhibition. For over 30 years, the passionately committed team has been combining the goldsmith's craft with artistic imagination. The result is perfectly shaped, vibrant, unique pieces full of harmony and visual lightness. With nature as a model, the flowing nature of the setting, which is carried out with an open flame, caresses the stone. At Kurzmann & Kurzmann, there are no contrived shapes, but lively, organic-looking designs with a strong expression of naturalness that emphasises this naturalness and gives the pieces their unique and unmistakable character. In an interview, Christine Kurzmann said: ‘With our jewellery treasures, we want to express a certain attitude to life that everyone would like to have: light, carefree, harmonious, multi-faceted. The enthusiasm we feel when creating our jewellery is perhaps the secret of the joy of life they are said to radiate.’ Jürgen Kurzmann has already attracted attention in specialist circles with his artefacts such as ‘Laurin’ and ‘The Key to Happiness’. His latest creation, a handbag made from a cocoa nut, horn and lapis lazuli, is currently causing a furore and can also be seen at the exhibition. Following exhibitions throughout Europe, we are delighted to be able to welcome the artist couple here. Let us inspire you too. www.kurzmann-design.de email: cj.kurzmann@t-online.de Admission free.

A regional exhibition project on the ambivalent concept of Heimat in cooperation between the Heimatpflegeverband Südtirol, the Südtiroler Künstlerbund and the Granaio di Nomi, organised on the occasion of the 75th anniversary of the Heimatpflegeverband Südtirol. Rooted from early childhood, the Heimat accompanies people throughout their lives, shaping identities and entire families. It can be familiar or lost, and serves as a utopian construct that simultaneously conveys a seemingly real emotional condition. The German word Heimat is difficult to translate into Italian - as in other languages - and few concepts are so strongly connoted by emotion and yet so deeply nuanced. In a world of constant change, which entails a loss of social ties, the nurturing of tradition and Heimat appears as an alternative to modern digitised speed. Heimat is experienced on the one hand as an Arcadian refuge that stimulates self-reflection. On the other hand, history and the current political situation show how this ideal can be instrumentalised and lead to exclusion, even to violence and war. Under fundamentally changed living conditions, the concept of Heimat increasingly takes on new meanings. In relation to waves of migration, Heimat represents a complex interface that raises questions of belonging, cultural rootedness and adaptability. People who leave their Heimat and live in new environments look for ways to define their identity in the conflict between past and present. Added to this is the influence of climate change, which entails not only physical but also emotional changes. Solastalgia - the feeling of homesickness without having left one's home, caused by environmental changes in one's area - is spreading. In this extensive exhibition, between the SKB ARTES venues, the outdoor area of the NOI Techpark and the Granary in Nomi, 25 artists from the region explore the concept of 'Heimat' through various media and on various levels of content. They deconstruct the term and investigate which dimensions the complex and layered concept of Heimat can encompass on a cultural, geographical, social, political and emotional level, both in the present and in the future.Participating artists: Leonhard Angerer, Walter Blaas, Italo Bressan, Susanne Burchia, Stefano Cagol, Hannes Egger, Ulrich Egger, Karolina Gacke, Werner Gasser, Elisabeth Hölzl, Elias Jocher, Wil-ma Kammerer, Kira Kessler, Angelo Demitri Morandini, Manuel Oberkalmsteiner, Elisabeth Oberrauch, Laura Pan, Lissy Pernthaler, Christian Piffrader, Leonora Prugger, Paula Prugger, Sylvie Riant, Ariel Trettel, Gustav Willeit, Andreas Zingerle. Curators: Eleonora Klauser Soldá, Lisa Trockner. Co-curators: Remo Forchini and Valentine Kostner. The exhibition opens on Saturday 7 September at 5 p.m. at SKB ARTES in Bolzano and on Friday 13 September at 6.30 p.m. at the Granaio in Nomi. The exhibition will be open until 25 October. The outdoor installation at the NOI Techpark is also accessible free of charge until 25 October.

In the “Photopsia” exhibition—a term that describes a visual disturbance manifesting in the form of hallucinatory perceptions—, Krottendorfer ties together three different projects about fictions from the early modern age. “Mountains of Kong”—a mountain range in Africa which was included in maps of the world until the early 20th century despite the fact that it never existed, showcasing a colonial-era production of fictitious knowledge about Africa. “Point of View”—the Chinese cabinets of the Hofburg in Brixen/Bressanone and Neustift Abbey, bearing witness to a romanticized view of an imaginary “Orient” but also to the power coming from the depiction of the world. “Phantom of the Poles”—In 1906, William Reed published a book of the same name in which he postulates that there is another world located inside the Earth, perhaps even unknown civilizations—an early form of “alternative facts”? All three projects allow us to reflect on the role of photography in the space between reality and fiction, truth and fallacy in our very own present.

Wind. The clouds, the sun, the moon. The stars. Water. Life. The quiet. Lukas Schäfer, born in 1992, hails from St.Georgen/San Giorgio in the Pustertal valley. He grew up between the Dolomites and the main ridge of the Alps. Even when he was a young child, his parents would show him the mountains. Ever since then, Lukas has been fascinated by nature, its landscapes, its details, and its animals. Lukas competed in professional freeskiing events before he got injured and discovered nature photography. He was immediately captivated. From that moment on, Lukas has rediscovered the mountains and their inhabitants time and time again with his camera. His passion would eventually turn into a profession. Some of his photographs and films have already won international awards. His debut book titled “Südtirol, Secrets of Nature” is a collection of photos and stories from South Tyrol and its border regions.

Guided tour of the Niederlana parish church with the Schnatterpeck altar. A first church was built on this site in the early Middle Ages on Roman foundations. In 1492, the present late Gothic wall pillar church was consecrated. Josef Weingartner counts it among the "most beautiful Gothic churches in the country" in his "Art Monuments of South Tyrol". The Gothic winged altar from the workshop of Hans Schnattpereck is a work of art that is known far beyond the borders of the province.

Markus Krottendorfer is showing his projects MOUNTAINS OF KONG from 2016 and PHANTOM OF THE POLES 2019-2023. Another series will be realized especially for the exhibition at LUMEN. Further information on the upcoming temporary exhibition will follow shortly. Opening of the temporary exhibition: 15.06.2023

“Have you ever heard the sound of falling rocks?” is the title of a six-month journey that took place in 2022 across the Alps, in Italy, France, Switzerland, and Austria. A visual investigation of a phenomenon that is as important as it is little-known: the degradation of the permafrost. In cooperation with ISPA - Italian Sustainabilty Photo Award.

It all began with a flash of inspiration, a brilliant idea that brought light into the dark times of Covid. Arnold Delmonego, together with his daughter Nora, who is the fifth generation to run the family business in Klausen, wanted to build bridges. The two master craftsmen, in whose workshop the shoes are still made by hand, suggested that artists and creative minds paint the shoes they had created. A challenge that was met with enthusiasm. For the artists, it was an incentive to get involved, to break new ground, based on the premise of artistically designing an unusual medium in order to achieve surprising results. Craft and art go hand in hand in this exhibition, with the shoes also being flanked by various works by the artists.

Lothar Dellago: 70 years of sculpture The ‘Art in the Old Town’ project, which brings the works of well-known artists into the old town of Klausen, is growing steadily and will be displayed in 29 shop windows in the upper and lower town this autumn. The exhibition is a tribute to the sculptor Lothar Dellago and his 70 years of creative work. Dellago's sculptures - imbued with music - are dancers who sway their bodies to inaudible sounds and express an irrepressible joy in life, movement and mutual encounters. The players, on the other hand, appear almost static, portraying well-known figures from the world of music. Art arises from the imagination, but Dellago's work is above all mental labour: ‘I try to get to the heart of the matter with just a few strokes.’ His art is the condensation of the line on a smooth surface, the reduction of the narrative to the essentials: the essence of the line.

The new special exhibition at the Museum Ladin is titled “Countdown to Mass Extinction?”.

The footage may be used and published on websites, on social networks and on media in compliance with the data protection regulations.

Special exhibition at the South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology Hunger is the best cook, 15,000 years ago as well as today. The special exhibition takes a look at the menu of our ancestors: the origin, preparation and preservation of food as well as the equipment used for this. A special focus is placed on local eating habits and regional archaeological finds. In addition to cultural-historical aspects, the multifaceted exhibition shows that our ancestors were never at a loss for an idea to satisfy their hunger and ensure that their food supplies lasted. Foods such as meat and fish, wild grains, wild fruits and honey were known from the very beginning. Other foods that we take for granted today, such as pulses, spices and cereals, were only brought to Europe by migratory movements in the course of human history. Food traditions that we are familiar with today, such as the processing of milk or the cultivation of wine, were introduced from the Mediterranean region at various times. Enjoy your meal! Let us invite you into the culinary world of food history.

The special exhibition at Taufers Castle deals with the medieval theme of "popular belief", which combines religious aspects with superstition. Curated by Marie Rubner, it can be seen from March 29 to November 3, 2024.
The exhibition shows a view of the world that was influential until the Enlightenment and is still influential today. It does not judge, but provides insights into religious customs, rituals and the belief in otherworldly powers.
Popular belief sought to harness otherworldly powers in order to achieve safety, health and salvation.
The exhibition presents texts, exhibits and images, including unicorns, basilisks and thinkers.
Although it does not draw any conclusions, the exhibition opens our eyes to the importance of popular beliefs in society. It also shows how the focus on popular belief affects historical conflicts of faith.
It becomes clear that popular belief filled gaps in the Christian understanding of faith by turning to powers beyond. At the same time, the Catholic understanding of faith opposed pagan cults with sacramental alternatives.
A visit to the exhibition can reveal further insights and invites you to visit several times.

We and our bodies, ideas, imaginations, and desires are consumed, processed, and monetized every day, just as we consume ourselves. Questioning the concept of visual excess in times of global crises requires an expanded understanding of research fields that bridge multiple contexts: How do we visually confront – and find ourselves confronted by – the contemporary phenomena of (over-)production and (hyper-)consumption? How can we filter out information “signals” from an excess of data “noise”? How do narratives of excess interact with imaginaries of renouncement, sacrifice, and resistance? How do they shape the way we perceive ourselves and how we live together as societies? The exhibition Diminishing Returns explores these questions, proposing counter-narratives and performative activities that challenge stereotypical notions of excess and its impacts. The works critically examine the personal, cultural, and social implications of excess from diverse perspectives. They contribute to dialogue by creating spaces for reflection, analyzing the role and use of images in our visual landscape, and engaging visitors through formats that directly challenge them.

In the Body of Language Im Körper der Sprache Nel corpo del linguaggio describes in three languages an environment that is explored with this art biennial and at the same time the state of our existence in the impossibility of separating the spiritual from the physical. Even if language is ultimately limited to a translation of inner experience and cognition, the communicable part of our experience and understanding of the world can be expressed in it. Language is a means of participation and has revolutionary potential. It builds worlds within us and around us, creates connections and demarcations. At the same time, it is alive and in constant motion - it reflects the political and social upheavals of our time.

The apple has always symbolised eternal youth, beauty, love, power or sin. The exhibition at the StadtGalerie Brixen, on the other hand, focusses on its basic function as a foodstuff. But even in this profane area, in South Tyrol the fruit is charged with the auspicious meaning of growth and prosperity. Since the middle of the 19th century, cultivation has been increasingly expanded, and in many places monocultures dominate the landscape today. In this group exhibition, artists explore the production processes of the apple industry. They show connections between the marketing of apples and the tourist region, examine the gender roles conveyed therein and the handling of tradition. Our relationship to nature, the origin of our food and the way certain foods evoke a sense of familiarity also play a role in “Apples and other vegetables”. With research-based installations, humour and horror scenarios, an interactive website, video works, photography and screen printing, Claudia Eichbichler, Gut++ (Erik Campanini, Alex Foradori, Bianca Schick), Christian Jankowski, Sonia Leimer, Suzan Noesen and Franziska Schink encourage reflection and discussion. Curated by Linnea Streit

The islands of Elba, Tavolara, Giglio, Le Camere, but also Favignana and Palmarola: each work on glass by Antonello Viola is inspired by an island, giving shape over time to an imaginary and highly personal archipelago in which the physical characteristics of each island dissolve into hazy chromatic chords.

The two-part special exhibition shows a representative overview of Robert Pan's oeuvre, while other works by the artist are integrated into the permanent exhibition in the historic building, creating an exciting dialogue with the Baroque furnishings of the imperial and episcopal appartments. This unusual combination opens up a dialogue across epochs: Pan's experimental abstract compositions, which focus on forms, colours and structures, interact with the strongly symbolic works of the Baroque masters. The exhibition thus not only offers the opportunity to trace Robert Pan's artistic development, but also invites visitors to experience the visually appealing contrast between different forms of artistic expression.

Ultimately - where the many philosophical questions of our existence remain unanswered, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe already said: ‘The inscrutable in devout contemplation’.

In the writings and visions of Hildegard of Bingen, Bonn artist Marianne Pitzen discovered that Hildegard saw a female image of God in the figure of wisdom, Sophia. On display are three-dimensional installations and replicas by artist and founder of the Frauenmuseum Bonn Marianne Pitzen. These are replicas of artistic works from the convent workshops, of which only a few copies remained after a fire, and writings on natural history and medicine with photographs by Marlies Obier from Siegen, who studied German, theology and history.
