Rudolf Hradil (1925–2007) is one of the most impor­tant Salzburg artists of the 20th cen­tu­ry. In 2023, the Salzburg Muse­um received numer­ous oil paint­ings from his estate, which are a won­der­ful addi­tion to the many graph­ic works from pre­vi­ous pur­chas­es and dona­tions by the artist. In hon­or of Rudolf Hradil’s 100th birth­day, select­ed works and a small selec­tion of every­day objects from the artist’s stu­dio will be shown in show­cas­es as a guest per­for­mance at Galerie Welz. Graph­ic works, water­col­ors, oil paint­ings and mono­types from the Welz Gallery’s col­lec­tion that have nev­er been exhib­it­ed before com­plete the overview of the artist’s work. 

Exhi­bi­tion open­ing: Sat­ur­day, June 7, 2025, 11 a.m. — 1 p.m.

Eva Mös­ened­er (born 1975), who has estab­lished her­self as a print­mak­er, returns to her begin­nings — paint­ing — along­side new two-dimen­sion­al graph­ic works. Paint­ing allows a direct approach in con­trast to the ana­lyt­i­cal, indi­rect process of print­mak­ing. The­mat­i­cal­ly, she remains true to her pic­to­r­i­al worlds. It is most­ly veg­e­tal plant crea­tures that pop­u­late her pic­tures. The crea­tures emerge from the paint dur­ing the paint­ing process, as if by them­selves. This makes the cre­ative process very dif­fer­ent from that of col­or etch­ing. The exhi­bi­tion shows the artist’s cur­rent graph­ic and print­mak­ing works.
