Exhibition in Bad Ischl — April 2026
In April 2026, Bad Ischl will become the setting for a compelling multimedia exhibition in 2 venues curated and organized by Ina Loitzl and Daniela Auerbach. I am delighted to be part of this project as a participating artist and to contribute to an exhibition that invites visitors to engage with contemporary artistic perspectives in a dynamic and accessible way.
The exhibition brings together art, education, and community by involving various schools and local initiatives. This creates a lively and interactive environment that extends beyond the traditional gallery experience, encouraging dialogue, reflection, and creative exchange among visitors of all ages. Alongside the artworks, a rich accompanying program will offer opportunities to deepen engagement with the themes of the exhibition through talks, workshops, performances, and presentations.

This exhibition offers more than just a display of contemporary art — it is a space for encounter, learning, and participation. Whether you are an art enthusiast, a student, a family, or simply curious, the program is designed to be inclusive, inspiring, and thought-provoking.
The exhibition unfolds across two venues in Bad Ischl — the Sudhaus Salinen Austria and Galerie am Fluss, allowing visitors to experience the works in dialogue with two distinct spaces and contexts. This dual-location format invites audiences to move through the city, discover different perspectives, and engage with the artistic themes in a varied and dynamic way.
