When Painting and Sculpture Engage in Conversation
At the Museum Altomünster, the works of Polish sculptor Remigiusz Dulko from Oświęcim/Auschwitz and Aichach painter and writer Fabian Oppolzer meet. The exhibition Painting & Sculpture in Dialogue connects two artistic positions to create an impressive artistic experience between color, form, material, and space.
Surface Meets Plastic Presence
The title of the exhibition describes the curatorial principle: Painting and sculpture do not stand isolated next to each other but instead engage in a visual and intellectual exchange. The images of Fabian Oppolzer open up the view for color, rhythm, and painterly depth, while Remigiusz Dulko focuses on physicality, surface, and spatial tension with his bronze sculptures.
In the examination of the works, an aesthetic experience is created where contour responds to volume, light to material, and closeness to distance. The atmosphere of the exhibition invites one to slow down their gaze and immediately perceive the impact of image and sculpture in space.
Remigiusz Dulko: Bronze, Memory, and Spirituality
Remigiusz Dulko studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Krakow and graduated with honors in sculpture in 1979. For more than four decades, he has dedicated himself to bronze, developing figurative sculptures inspired by people, relationships, memory, and spirituality. His works navigate between the sacred and the everyday, between intimacy and symbolism.
Fabian Oppolzer: Painting with Literary Sensitivity
Fabian Oppolzer is closely connected with the region as a painter, writer, and musician. His images harmoniously engage in dialogue with Dulko's sculptures in the exhibition. The juxtaposition reveals how different media can negotiate similar questions: How does meaning arise from form? How does material change our perception? And what stories begin where words are insufficient?
Art Connects Cultures and Perspectives
The German-Polish exhibition ties into the partnership between the district of Dachau and Oświęcim/Auschwitz. Art here appears as a connecting language beyond cultural and linguistic boundaries. The Museum Altomünster creates a special resonant space for this: Contemporary works meet a historically shaped place that is closely linked to the former Birgittenkloster and the history of the Brigittine Order.
