“Long Night of Art”: The premiere drew a large audience.
The response was clearly positive.
Tegernsee
- What has been around for a long time in Munich and has been popular with the public has now also experienced its baptism of fire in the Tegernsee Valley: the “Long Night of Art”. Three museums, four galleries and five studios did not open their doors at night with free admission and fantastic weather, but on two days, Friday and Saturday, from 1 p.m. to 10 p.m. The response from those involved and numerous visitors - not only from the valley - was clearly positive; perhaps the beginning of a success story, admittedly with little room for improvement. But that's normal with a pilot project.
The Gulbransson Museum, already heavily visited because of the Chagall exhibition, was able to increase its attendance again, as 280 guests came on Friday and Sonja Still's guided tours were also in high demand. “That's why I'm here,” said a visitor who otherwise would not have had time during the day. Roland Götz from the Museum Tegernseer Tal was also very satisfied, where the Tegernseer Liederkranz gave a concert outside at 9 p.m. The visit from the afternoon onwards was very good, and the six guided tours in total were brilliantly received. The operators of the Carriage Museum in the Rottacher Gsotthaber Hof, where “The Four Young Tegernsee” played outdoors - and in a special atmosphere, because all museums were effectively illuminated.
The assessment of the four participating galleries was positive. Peter Rau from the Rottacher Galerie “Kunst und mehr” was also satisfied, but admitted that you “have to do something yourself” to bring people here. With the digital processing of the exhibits and music by the Nina Michelle Trio, it also attracted a younger audience. Peggy Neumann from the Orange Gallery in Tegernsee went into more detail on the quality: “Great people, great conversations. It's good that there is, especially after the long break. ”The current exhibition“ Church of Dinosaur ”by Sebastian Klein was viewed among other things by two art-loving women from Bad Tölz and Starnberg with lively interest and immediately wandered over to Valerija Vuk Strobel from the Art Academy Tegernsee, where Celia Mendoza shows abstract painting and offered a well-attended workshop.Only Michael Böhnke from the Arteg Gallery was unable to report any higher visitor numbers due to the “Long Night”.
Six of the numerous artists in the valley took part. Naturally, they had a harder time than museums and galleries, but they also painted a positive picture. The renowned Tegernsee painter Jürgen Welker, who anyway likes to work for himself in silence, noticed that you have to give the meaningful project time to get used to it and to develop. Jutta Stumböck was the only point of contact in Bad Wiessee. “It wasn't exactly all hell going on,” she said, but was happy to be able to show some interested people various painting techniques. In Ekaterina Zacharova's studio gallery in Gmund, the triple exhibition “Just a Woman”, together with Muriel Breu and Anastasia Kohler, enjoyed great popularity. The art tour around the lake ends in Dürnbach. Klaus-Peter Frank,A painter who has been “narrating” for decades and who has invented “Frankography”, “did not want to complain” and responded intensively to his visitors. “Those who were there stayed a long time,” he reported, who also had minor sales successes. And finally there was the innovative photo artist Christine Otsver, who introduced numerous interested parties to the principle of the “camera obscura”. As exhibits, she showed impressive examples from the “Light Painting” series she had developed and an enchanting, romantic, transfigured and large-format view from the Point of Tegernsee - at night, to stay with the topic.And finally there was the innovative photo artist Christine Otsver, who introduced numerous interested parties to the principle of the “camera obscura”.
