Peter Sandbichler

In the Studio Peter Sandbichler, Vienna

The Tyrolean-born artist Peter Sandbichler frequently uses cardboard as his source material, which he cuts, folds, and thereby into three-dimensional objects. His preference for modular systems is just as apparent in the large-scale sculptures that interpose themselves within a space as in his smaller-scale origami-like works. Sandbichler’s particular interest in the fold in sculpture is equally evident when he reaches for other materials such as concrete or metal.

From the outset, with the foundation of the Wiener Werkstätte (WW), women artists were also involved in its creations. Their number grew constantly until the company’s liquidation in 1932, and especially in the interwar years Mathilde Flögl, Maria Likarz, Felice Rix, or Vally Wieselthier defined the look of the WW with fantastic fabric patterns and expressive ceramics. In the course of our research, about 180 female artists were identified and approximately half of these are represented in this exhibition. TIME SLOT BOOKING REQUIRED!

Nordic Notes

Julius Göthlin

Julius Göthlin, Stockholm
A frontrunner of contemporary abstract painting in Sweden, Julius Göthlin’s work to the observer might appear to depart from notions of space and various natural phenomena. In his own view however, his practice largely stems from striving to propel energies and feelings through physical structures.
