ART MARKET

ALLEE / SAturday+Sunday

RENARRO

renarro is an association with a workshop for applied recycling. Things that are no longer used are given a value through their modification or renewal and their history is given a new story: in this way unique objects are created in our workshop. Our main focus is currently on chairs; but in principle has no limits, because we recycle and use what others give away or throw away: Sofas, stools, benches, coat racks, clothes racks, lamps/lights. Wool and fabrics are used to make bags, upholstery, hats, scarves, jewelry and much more.

PATRICK WIESER

His artistic work revolves around maps, cartography of various kinds; around the city as a theme; around architecturally interesting buildings, which he then uses as inspiration for my works. He paints and draws maps, of existing places, but also free-found city and country maps. He works with digital printing, Liloleum printing, Acquatinta and Acuqaforte. He creates collages and classic pencil drawings.
ALLEE / SATURDAY+SUNDAY

VERENA THÖNI

Her works are primarily about the line. Sometimes only a single line, but often many lines together. These are often bent, curved, overlap and are very colorful. The theme of color is also important to her, she always tries to create coherent and harmonious color compositions. She paints these geometric abstract images on wood but also on canvas.

Works with geometric shapes, creates abstract and figurative collages. She tries to combine different materials to create a composition.

KARSTEN PFEIFER

With his photo exhibition “South Tyrolean Symbioses,” the Westphalian-born photographer sidesteps perfectionism. He uses his skills purposefully to combine the historical technique of the collodion wet plate with modern possibilities. His close relationship to the Vinschgau Valley with its people and the unusual photographic technique form the basis for his symbiotic motifs from South Tyrol. The large-format photos invite the viewer to look closely and find ever new details. In doing so, he wants to bring the immediate impressions of his experiences as close as possible to the viewers.

JANICK ENTREMONT

He already became interested in the visual medium at an early age. In the beginning, his approach was rather technology-based, and so it was appealing to him to explore the inside and functional principle of a camera. Over the years and with growing experience, however, it became more and more important to him to find his personal approach and to give priority to content matter.
