Exhibition, November 26, 2025 – January 16, 2026
“Photography” in essence means “drawing with light.” Chemical substances, optical processes, and storage media are needed in order to obtain a permanent image from something as immaterial as light.

Mara Novak employs photographic techniques to create...

Opening, September 23, 6 pm
Exhibition, September 24 – November 7, 2025
Jonas Morgenthaler’s artistic practice stems from the realm of sculpture and assemblage.

Schüler*innen der Klasse 3E/B / BRG Klagenfurt-Viktring (mit Donata Kuess)
Workshop unter der Leitung von Edith Payer
Im Rahmen dieses Workshops wird das Thema des Gastgebens spielerisch anhand von Obst und Gemüse erkundet.
