CHARITY AUCTION IN SUPPORT OF THE KÜNSTLERHAUS VEREINIGUNG IN VIENNA

SUPPORTING THE KÜNSTLERHAUS VEREINIGUNG WITH ARCHIVES OF THE LIVING

Location: Factory im Künstlerhaus Wien, Karlsplatz 5, 1010 Vienna, Austria


PRE-SHOWING:

November 19–24, 2026, daily 10:00–18:00

FREE admission with code: I love art / Ich liebe Kunst


For this special occasion, I have donated one of my paintings from the series Archives of the Living, an ongoing artistic exploration of the relationships between plants, ecological memory, biodiversity, and the interconnectedness of living systems.


My contribution, Kleefarn & Serpentinfarn I (Asplenium forsteri & Marsilea quadrifolia), created in 2024, brings together two fern species in a painterly investigation of botanical diversity and the fragile relationships that shape our natural world.


Through Archives of the Living, I explore plants not merely as botanical subjects, but as carriers of ecological, cultural, and historical knowledge. The series connects artistic practice with scientific inquiry, inviting viewers to reconsider how we perceive, value, and relate to the living environment.


By contributing this work, I am pleased to support the Künstlerhaus Vereinigung and its commitment to artistic exchange, cultural dialogue, and the continued visibility of contemporary art.


I warmly invite you to join us for an evening celebrating art, community, and collective support for the arts.
