The exhibition 'It takes two to tango' opens on Thursday.
It shows the power of art, shapes and colors.
Abstraction and reality meet.
Wolfratshausen - An exhibition in which design and color painting merge like tango will soon be on display in the Kunstturm am Schwankl-Eck: Heinz Stoewer and Ursula-Maren Fitz are showing nude paintings and abstractions in oil and acrylic in combination with glass and bronze.
The title of the exhibition is: “It takes two to tango”.
Opening is on Thursday, February 22nd.
The whole thing is accompanied musically by the group “Mind to Soul Gang”.
Combinations of oil, acrylic and glass: two special artists are exhibiting together
The term “queer” was coined in the USA for people whose gender identity and sexual orientation do not correspond to heterosexual relationships.
Stoewer draws attention to this identity in his pictures.
“I want to promote understanding and arouse curiosity about this way of life.” His artworks often show masculine bodies moving aesthetically in the clear water.

Stoewer's large-format picture compositions in oil and acrylic impress with their unusual combination of abstract background and naturalistic representation.
His works convey messages: “Forrest on Fire” about the environment or “Who Spilled the Nail Polish?” regarding freedom for human feelings and relationships.
Stoewer was born in Frankfurt am Main in 1955.
He studied law and worked as a lawyer until 1998.
The artist says he traveled to the USA many times.
Now he has drawn a line in the sand.
“The political situation is becoming more and more threatening.” Today he lives and works as a freelance artist in Bad Tölz and exhibits throughout Bavaria and nationwide.
His pictures are represented in a collection in Palm Springs, USA.

The “dance partner” in the art tower at Schwankl-Eck is the artist Ursula-Maren Fitz, who lives in Waakirchen.
Her glass objects, which consist of a colored cone inside and are surrounded by crystal glass, can weigh up to 15 kilograms, made by her together with experts in a glassworks in Zwiesel.

Like big marbles, like hand flatterers.
But you can also see hand-blown glass objects wrapped in barbed wire, a difficult challenge in production, she says.
Ursula-Maren Fitz studied art and German.
She works with paint, clay, bronze and paper.
Glass has played a special role for her for 15 years.
Her work is exhibited in galleries worldwide, including Europe, China and South America.
Technically and thematically, the works of both artists contrast with one another, but there is also a close fusion to be perceived - just like tango, which always takes two.
