When Painting and Sculpture Enter into Conversation
The Museum Altomünster invites you to the exhibition Painting & Sculpture in Dialogue featuring works by the Polish sculptor Remigiusz Dulko from Oświęcim/Auschwitz and the painter, musician, and writer Fabian Oppolzer from Aichach. The German-Polish exhibition connects two distinct artistic positions into an art experience involving form, material, memory, and cultural encounter.
A Dialogue Between Surface, Body, and Space
The exhibition title describes the curatorial principle: Painting and sculpture do not stand isolated next to each other, but rather engage in a lively exchange. Color fields, lines, and painterly rhythms encounter the spatial presence of bronze, volume, and surface. In the contemplation of the works, an aesthetic experience arises that sharpens the perception of proportion, materiality, and movement.
The atmosphere of the exhibition thrives on concentrated contrasts. Where painting opens inner spaces and works with color tones, sculpture sets bodily accents. Light, surface, and spatial effects direct perception and reveal how differently art can condense reality.
Remigiusz Dulko: Bronze as Condensed Presence
Remigiusz Dulko was born in 1955 in Lidzbark Warmiński and studied sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts in Krakow, graduating with honors in 1979. Since the beginning of his artistic career, he has primarily worked with bronze. His figurative sculptures combine craftsmanship precision with a powerful plastic language.
Dulko's works revolve around people, relationships, spirituality, and memory. The traditional wax casting process gives the bronzes a sensual materiality in which physicality and symbolism intertwine. In the Museum Altomünster, the sculpture claims the space, sets accents, and directs the gaze towards the relationship between mass, line, and emptiness.
Fabian Oppolzer: Painting with Literary Sensitivity
Fabian Oppolzer complements Dulko's plastic presence with a painterly position influenced by his work as a painter, musician, and writer. His images expand the dialogue with poetic openness, color tone, and inner pictorial spaces. Thus, an exhibition emerges where not only two media meet, but also different perception modes.
Art as Cultural Encounter
The exhibition possesses a unique cultural-historical dimension: The two artists come from regions connected by the partnership between Dachau and Oświęcim/Auschwitz. This connection finds a continuation in art. The exhibition shows how painting and sculpture transcend linguistic and cultural boundaries and open new perspectives.
This makes the exhibition a place of cultural education as well. Visitors discover how material, form, and composition generate meaning. The immediate encounter with the works enables a slowed-down contemplation and an art experience that goes beyond mere information transfer.
Conclusion: An Exhibition That Changes Perspective
Painting & Sculpture in Dialogue brings together bronze sculptures by Remigiusz Dulko and paintings by Fabian Oppolzer in a presentation full of tension. Art enthusiasts can expect a concentrated exhibition atmosphere between surface and space, presence and memory, local rooting and European exchange. Those who wish to experience aesthetic experience, art historical context, and cultural encounter should visit this exhibition live at the Museum Altomünster.
