When Painting and Sculpture Engage in Conversation
In the Museum Altomünster, the works of the Polish sculptor Remigiusz Dulko and the Aichach painter, musician, and writer Fabian Oppolzer meet. The exhibition Painting & Sculpture in Dialogue offers a focused look at color, form, material, and cultural encounters.
Between Plane, Body, and Space
The curated juxtaposition leads two different artistic languages into immediate exchange. Color fields, lines, and painterly rhythm interact with volume, surface, and the spatial presence of sculpture. In the contemplation of the works, an aesthetic experience emerges that slows down the gaze and opens new perspectives on contemporary art.
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. For more than four decades, he has worked with bronze. His figurative sculptures revolve around people, relationships, memory, and spirituality. Often, his imagery moves between the sacred and the everyday, between intimacy and symbolism.
The bronze works exert their effect through mass, gesture, surface, and interspace. Light reflects off the material while the plastic forms make the exhibition space physically tangible. Dulko combines artisanal precision with a quiet, compelling presence.
Fabian Oppolzer: Painting with Literary Sensibility
Fabian Oppolzer integrates his work as a painter with literary, musical, and cultural scientific thinking. His selected paintings respond to the physicality of the sculptures and create a resonant space for color, structure, memory, and narrative.
In interaction with Dulko's bronze, Oppolzer's painting gains an additional spatial tension. Differences between plane and volume, openness and condensation are not smoothed out but made visible as a productive basis for the contemplation of the works.
Art as a German-Polish Dialogue
The exhibition is connected to the partnership between the Dachau district and Oświęcim, or Auschwitz. Two artists from different cultural contexts meet in a museum that is itself shaped by history, spirituality, and cultural education. Art appears here as a possibility to bring people together and to open conversations where words alone are insufficient.
A Historical Exhibition Venue
The Museum Altomünster houses a permanent exhibition on the Altomünster monastery and the Brigittine order alongside changing special exhibitions. Calmness, serenity, and reflection characterize the exhibition atmosphere. In this historical context, the juxtaposition of painting and sculpture gains a special depth: contemporary art enters into a quiet dialogue with the cultural memory of the place.
Conclusion: An Art Experience Between History and Presence
Painting & Sculpture in Dialogue promises an intense aesthetic experience between bronze, color, form, and space. Art enthusiasts will experience how two different media converse with each other and how cultural encounters gain new meaning through careful contemplation of the works. A visit to the Museum Altomünster enriches perception and opens up an impressive dialogue that should be experienced live.
