Happy Easter 2024

Contemporary art, a living mesh of culture and nature, reflects far more than the surface of reality. It is like the cracking of an eggshell, a symbol of a new beginning that releases life in its infinite diversity. Together with galleries, artists courageously cross the threshold of the familiar to bring the hidden to light. In their quest to open up to the world through art, they sacrifice themselves like the Easter lamb to break through barriers and create deep connections.

Unveiled presence

At Vienna's Gerngross, Ladislav Černý unfolds his UNVERHÜLLTE GEGENWART, a rebellion against indifference, an invitation to see as if it were the first time. Art that breaks the mold to force us to look, to really look. To come, to see, to understand.
