Painting and Sculpture in Dialogue: Art that Connects Boundaries
At the Museum Altomünster, from September 27, 2026, two distinct artistic positions will meet: the sculptures of Polish sculptor Remigiusz Dulko from Oświęcim/Auschwitz and the paintings of Aichach artist and writer Fabian Oppolzer. The exhibition opens an impressive dialogue between color and form, surface and space, material and perception.
When Color Meets Body
In this exhibition, painting and sculpture appear not as separate genres but as lively conversation partners. Color fields develop rhythm and atmosphere, while sculptural works interact with volume, surface, and shadow in the space. The curatorial juxtaposition directs attention to those transitions where a shared artistic experience emerges from individual works.
An Aesthetic Experience between Surface and Space
The artwork viewing invites a conscious perception of lines, proportions, materiality, and spatial impact. While painting consolidates light, composition, and emotional density, the sculpture provides a physical presence to the exhibition space. This interplay creates a concentrated exhibition atmosphere that opens up new perspectives on the expressive possibilities of visual arts.
Art as Cultural Dialogue
The exhibition title refers to a central idea: art overcomes linguistic, geographical, and cultural boundaries. The encounter of a Polish sculptor from the partner region Oświęcim/Auschwitz with an artist from the Dachau district simultaneously makes the exhibition a sign of lived district partnership. Cultural education is made visible here as an immediate experience – in comparative seeing, in open conversation, and in personal interpretation.
The Museum Altomünster as a Historical Resonance Space
Contemporary works unfold in a museum that is closely connected to the history of the Bridgettine Order and St. Birgitta of Sweden. The museum, which opened in 1997, was awarded the Bavarian Museum Prize in 2001. The historical depth of the building creates an exciting resonance space for contemporary art and extends the exhibition by a second temporal layer.
Opening and Exhibition Duration
Art enthusiasts and friends of district partnership are warmly invited to the opening on Sunday, September 27, 2026, at 3 PM. The exhibition can be seen until January 17, 2027, at the Museum Altomünster. Admission is 2.50 euros per person; groups of ten or more pay 2 euros per person. A guided tour costs 15 euros.
Conclusion: An Art Experience with Connecting Power
Painting & Sculpture in Dialogue – Art Connects promises a sensual and at the same time art-historically stimulating exhibition. Visitors will experience how color, form, material, and space come together in a multifaceted dialogue. Anyone wishing to experience contemporary art in a historically significant museum and discover new perspectives between two artistic languages should definitely visit this exhibition live.
