Information about the artists:
ATELIER COOLPOOL – DAISY GOLD, MANFREDO WEIHS (AUT)
The artist duo COOLPOOL, Daisy Gold and Manfredo Weihs create a synergy of art forms of painting and photography.
In the selected works for this exhibition they deal with the simplicity, beauty and transitory feeling of the feeling of joy of life and whether the sensation of the same could be controlled by manipulation. (http://www.ateliercoolpool.at)
ADMIRA BRADARIC (BIH)
Tributes to life are the three works of Admira Bradaric. They are part of the series "Autobiography" in which the artist occupies the position both as an actress and as an artistic observer.
In this brutal, expressive artistic articulation, the staging of body and mind merge into a visible event that makes the inner strength, power, hope and faith in life comprehensible.
KELLY FISCHER (CHE/USA)
In her paintings Kelly Fischer takes us on a colorful journey full of feelings of happiness and lightness. Unfulfilled dreams and mysteries are just waiting to be brought to light and unlimited fantasies allow us to experience the tasks of mundane everyday life as a wonderful adventure and to take life as it is. (http://www.kelly-fischer.com)
DARIUS FOROUTAN (AUT)
Our daily life is characterized by an old culture that has experienced through the times through the acceptance of numerous inspirations through other cultures, liveliness, fusion and further development.
Thus for the architect and artist Darius Foroutan the Griffin, a mythical creature that has existed in many cultures for millennia, is not only a symbol of the strength, vigilance and guardians of the good, but also a symbol of coalescence and invitation at the same time, openly and fully confident to the constant change of life. (http://foroutan.weebly.com)
JÜRGEN HAUPT (DEU)
Driven by compulsion of striving to create a spatial distance to the everyday earnestness of life with his worries and threats- this is the way how his artworks should be seen. His naïve images show a romantic world, full of happiness and a carefree everyday life, a world where all the dreams and desires of the people are realized. A place that allows a self-determined life and everyone can be the way he is. (http://www.juergen-haupt.com)
MARIANNE HOLLENSTEIN (CHE)
Landscapes created on paper through painting and writing, unconscious acting out of memory, reflecting the energy of life in a humane world.
In the large-format images of Marianne Hollenstein, various processes of vision and life penetrate each other and begin to merge spontaneously, trusting chance.
(http://www.marianne-hollenstein.de)
VLADISLAVA IAKOVENKO (UKR)
In the everyday perception, chaos, boredom and inhumanity make the encounter of the blessed beauty and the desire for a filled, happy life seem unattainable.
In the works of Vladislava Iakovenko the protagonists listen to a melody whose tones, through the harmony of the colors and the structure of the canvas, penetrate our ears and let our inner state resonate. This fleeting moment recalls the harmonious sides of life. (http://www.artistvlada.com)
MARLEN PEIX (DEU)
The everyday, seemingly insignificant object transforms itself by changing the own perception, the composition of light and color, the use of the latest technologies become an expression of a new aesthetic.
New universes arise in the abstract compositions of Marlen Peix in search of the imagination behind it, according to the motto "Nothing is as it seems to be..." and by the joy of creating a new aesthetic to put banal objects or meaningless situations into another dimension.
(http://www.marlen-peix.de)
MANDANA SEPASI (IRN)
In her paintings Mandana Sepasi shows the status of female life and the challenges that women are constantly exposed to. An undesirable life characterized by loneliness, isolation and hardness, far from any aesthetic claim of outer beauty.
The examination of the real life of a woman is an attempt to give women a voice by visualization and exaltation as a work of art.
ALEXANDRA SPYRATOS (KEN/AUS)
Elephants are for her a symbol of a deep-rooted joy of life and continual persistence in affirming unity. Tirelessly they go their way for millennia and despite all adversity, through natural events or by destructive action of the human species, they embrace life.
Her visual affection is reflected in the colorful, textured images inspired by the beauty of Africa's wilderness. (http://www.alexandraart.com)
ROSARIA AESTUS VIGORITO (USA)
A passionate fire for provocation, stimulation, discomfort and enriching lust for life burns and is visible in the pictures of Rosaria Aestus Vigorito.
She considers art as a bridge to a higher self and beyond, a stimulation of the senses, uncomfortable, challenging and always the human body in transformation. (http://rosariavigorito.com)
