BIOGRAMS
ANITA WINDHAGER
The painting is about people and the variability of their emotional worlds. As puppets of his own soul reveal themselves abstracted body with a few delicate lines in an expression of universal psychological moods. Faceless, they appear to be interchangeable at first glance. Each can be anything. Frequently they merge with a - if the same horizon liable - deliberately reduced background. Modern metaphor for the fleeting time-limited relationships.The works are abstract, but not informal. It naturally produced in the old tradition casein colors create harmonious color tones. And although we have used in the cave paintings, they seem surprisingly contemporary. The artist wears many layers of glaze on fine raw-canvas, and thus gives the image space timeless validity. The result is idiosyncratic, emotionally charged compositions that draw the viewer into their spell.
CHRISTIAN EICHINGER
Christian Eichinger is a realistic painter. The classic painting is important to him. Using the knowledge and the technique of the old masters in his personal world of images builds his base. Experimenting again and again leads him to new terrains of art.Right here, the artist demands the interested observer to follow his thoughts. The so resulted images are often only apparently abstract. The fact that they arise from a real image idea, many of these abstractions represent distortion, reduction, sometimes simplification and internalization. As disintegration in a world of spirits, the sight is replaced by feelings.
CHRISTINE A EICHINGER
Objects, figurines, sculptures, paintings. Clay, paper clay, china. Often associated with morbid eroded metal fragments. Printed and texted with screenprint and writen elements. Sometimes mounted on large objects. Often written or scratched on paper-thin sheets of clay. Colored with oxides, metal salts, engobe, glaze. Or just polished and smoke fired. These are the foundations for the work of the artist Christine A Eichinger. She closes her eyes. Her thoughts arise ideas, intuitivenesses, imaginationes. Conversed they became objects, figures, sculptures and paintings ..
CHRISTINE KRAPFENBAUER-CERMAK
Born in 1970 in Linz, lives in Hollabrunn / Lower Austria. She works as a chemist at the Austrian Agency for Health and Food Safety.She is self-taught and uses mixed media. Acrylic, sand and pastel are applied in thin layers. The sub surfaces are wanted to shine through.Her work embraces the fields of successions and generations. She shows what´s behind all this. To-gether we provide the basis for company. Each and every has a supporting base. Still he is just one of many.The collective sub consciousness is the central theme of the series “The Ancestral Danube”. The town and her residents´ affective memory are inextricably linked with one another.
RENATE KORINEK
The Austrian glass artist and sculptor Renate Korinek first came in contact with glass during her studies in the 1980’s at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna und was able to perfect working with hot glass in the USA. Korinek has exhibited internationally in galleries, museums, and churches (for e.g. Semper Depot Vienna, Gerhard Marcks Sculpture Museum in Bremen). For Korinek, it is transparency and the wide dimensions that gives hot glass its suspenseful shape. With the power of the furnace flames, Korinek transforms the energetic medium into sculptural forms – up to four meters in size. Combined with steel, wrapped in wire, her works transmit a deeper insight.

WALTER MARINGER
Austrian artistic painter, lives in Kirchberg am Wagram near Vienna. He is a member of Gale-rie grenzART in Hollabrunn and galeria „U Jaksy“ in Miechow. Subject of his paintings are anonymous human beings. The technique used is casein tem-pera. While some parts of his work are dimly sug-gested, other allegedly important areas such as figures are precisely carried out. He lets the diluted paint run across the canvas in a way that figura-tive structures are not formed by clear brush stro-kes but by incorporated elements of paper and molino. He uses a form of collage and decollage and is working in a wide range of materials and techniques which enables him to create unique effects and atmosphere.

NORBERT MAYERHOFER
Austrian contemporary artist, born in 1952, lives in Vienna and Lower Austria. 1968-69: Private studies with Prof. Adolf Frohner. Since 2005 free graphic art-design with a main interest on acrylic paintings.
Mayerhofers artworks deal with various paral-lel universes and individual realities. Born out of cryptic associations they carry the viewers into emotional situations, in which logical laws don’t seem to exist. That’s why somebody may call his art surreal even though it’s conceptual.At second sight you can realize that all his imagi-nations have a main target:to break through our all-day ways of sight and feelings and to reflect it. The artwork as a dialectical process.

ROBERT PETSCHINKA
I live and work in Obermallebarn, in Lower Austria.The most important topic I treat in my art in ge-neral and specifically my paintings is the human being. My motto is: “one pencil and a dream can take you anywhere”.I got my first artistic impulses which had a big influ-ence on my way of working and the style of my art from the Gothic style and its expressive power on one hand and the very simple figuration of African sculptures on the other hand. Later my work was mainly influenced by the German expressionists.What I can clearly say about my life is that it´s all about creativity and I´ve always tried to convey my creative way of thinking and acting in different ways courses, exhibitions, seminars and workshops complete my artistic life.I really enjoy expressing my ideas in every way I can – especially through paintings, drawings, sculptures, but also illustrating books and maga-zines.

„To love the good God is now again not that he gives to him who has no content of the form“ (Alfred Hrdlitschka)
GUDRUN SEITL
Study of Biology in Vienna, works as an IT-specialist.Despite of (or maybe because of) working in front of a computer all day, at night organic-looking, usually quite big, ceramic deepsea-creatures leave her studio after slowly and comfortably emerging beneath her hands. When time is in short supply, tiny lines, dots and colourblends are created with polymer clay and formed into unusual jewellery, a counterpoint to the massive sea-creatures already lurking in every corner. „Nesselbruch“:reminiscent of a cnidoblast, a sometimes poisonous cell situated on the outer skin which is responsible for the stings delivered by jellyfish. In his case, the sting has already been delivered, the creature is comfortably settled.
Franz Seitl
Born in 1963, lives and works in Lower Austria as a graphic designer, illustrator and artist. After 20 years of working mainly in printmaking and painting his current fascination goes towards three-dimensional works. „Mixed Media“ is what he calls the variety of construction, adhesive and structural materials from which his seemingly fragile sculptures – chaos creatures, guardian heads, amorphous structures – are made. Ranging from elegant, reduced forms to three-dimensional caricatures whose wit is often only revealed at a second glance. The surfaces of the objects present themselves as rough, jagged and rusty.Symposia and work trips to Germany, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Hungary. Conducts art classes, workshops and exhibitions.
RUDOLF STRESSLER
Born in 1944 in Karlstein/Thaya, Rudolf Stressler settled down in Hollabrunn in 1966. Since 1984 he shares a ceramic studio with Marie Anna Stressler.
After his first attempts on the potter´s wheel more than 40 years ago he never stopped experimenting with selected clay masses and also built various kinds of ovens to see the impact on the glazing. His work often shows combinations of ceramic with bamboo or metal rods. Plain shapes and special glaze techniques make his exhibits esthetical works of art.

MARIE ANNA STRESSLER
Born in 1952 in Hollabrunn. Since 1984 close collaboration with Rudolf Stressler.
Capturing life with all her senses and expressing thoughts without a single word but through combination of different materials and techniques is her vision. Out of clay, scrap metal, glass, wood and colours very plastic and complex objects are created.
