Artists in Motion: When Play and Chance Become Contemporary Art
At the Schafhof – European Art Forum Upper Bavaria in Freising, Artists in Motion: Play and Chance unfolds as a European resonance space for contemporary art. Seven artists from Belgium, Germany, France, Italy, and Scotland grapple with the question of how movement, uncertainty, rules, and decisions generate new images, forms, and meanings.
A European Dialogue in Many Media
The exhibition showcases painting, printmaking, photography, video, sculpture, installation, and conceptual art. Alessandra Bisi, Inge Bos, Gerd Lepic, Michel di Maggio, Steve Schaub, Wim Scheere, and Uta Schnuppe Strack develop different artistic positions on the annual theme of Play and Chance. Their works enter into a polyphonic dialogue about cultural diversity, European cooperation, and the creative power of the unpredictable.
Artwork Observation Between Order and Openness
In the exhibition, chance does not appear as mere disruption, but as an independent artistic principle. Compositional orders shift, materials assert their own presence, and visual decisions remain consciously open. Colors, forms, surfaces, and spatial effects combine to create an exhibition atmosphere that invites careful observation and personal interpretation.
Cultural Education and Aesthetic Experience
Artists in Motion stands for interdisciplinary collaboration among artists from various European countries and disciplines. The curation combines individual artistic languages with questions of inclusion, social cohesion, and cultural responsibility. Accompanying programs, artist talks, lectures, workshops, and guided tours deepen the access to the exhibited positions, making the exhibition an inspiring place for cultural education.
