When Painting and Sculpture Have a Conversation
The Museum Altomünster presents Painting & Sculpture in Dialogue, a German-Polish exhibition featuring the works of sculptor Remigiusz Dulko from Oświęcim/Auschwitz and Aichach painter and writer Fabian Oppolzer. The exhibition combines two independent artistic positions into a compelling art experience about form, material, perception, and cultural understanding.
A Dialogue Between Surface, Body, and Space
The exhibition title simultaneously describes the curatorial principle. Painting and sculpture do not stand isolated next to each other but react to one another. The plastic presence of bronze encounters the poetic openness of painting; volume, surface, color harmony, and pictorial rhythm enter into an exciting exchange.
In viewing the works, every step alters the perspective. Closed forms, spaces in between, and different viewpoints make the exhibition atmosphere physically tangible. Thus, an aesthetic experience emerges, where material and space become as important as motif and composition.
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. The sculptor works primarily with bronze and controls the creation process of his works from design to final processing himself.
His sculptures convince through craftsmanship precision, material awareness, and a plastic language that places emphasis on physicality, gesture, and proportion. In the museum, the bronze works gain a quiet, intense presence and draw attention to the relationship between mass, line, and emptiness.
Fabian Oppolzer: Painting with Literary Resonance
Fabian Oppolzer combines his activities as a painter, musician, and writer. His images open a poetic interpretive space that cannot be confined to a single reading. Color, composition, and painterly rhythm respond to the spatial setting of the sculptures.
Especially in this juxtaposition, the distinctiveness of both media is revealed: Painting works with surface, color harmony, and visual density, while sculpture operates through weight, body, and spatial presence. For visitors, a concentrated viewing of the works emerges, expanding perception and opening new perspectives on contemporary art.
Art as a Bridge Between Dachau and Oświęcim
The exhibition is also a sign of the partnership between Dachau and Oświęcim/Auschwitz. Two artists from different cultural backgrounds meet in an exhibition that makes art as a means of exchange visible. Additionally, a film about the relay run from Dachau to Auschwitz from the year 2025 is shown in the museum, organized as a symbol of remembrance and reconciliation.
Conclusion: An Art Experience with Lasting Impact
Visitors can expect an exhibition where bronze, color, space, and memory merge into a multi-layered dialogue. Painting & Sculpture in Dialogue offers cultural education without fear of barriers, stimulating viewing of the works, and an aesthetic experience in the historical setting of the Museum Altomünster. Anyone wishing to experience contemporary painting and sculpture directly should visit this exhibition live.
