With “Attersee – Rundum,” Galerie 422 presents 422 new works by Christian Ludwig Attersee together with Sabine Aichhorn, Thean Chie Chan, Berenice Darrer, Anton Herzl, Hanna Hollmann, Olivia Kaiser, Daniel Schoch and Val Wecerka
who were once his students and remain connected to him both artistically and personally to this day.
Over 30 of Attersee’s works—the majority created in 2026—engage in dialogue with the positions selected by him, bringing together different approaches, materials and visual languages.
Christian Ludwig Attersee is one of the defining figures of contemporary Austrian art. His works oscillate between figuration and abstraction, between poetic lightness, humor and sensual opulence. In Attersee’s oeuvre, color, form and materiality become independent means of expression. His works open up multilayered visual narratives full of associations, wordplay and painterly freedom.
In the group exhibition, gestural painting meets reduced forms, and poetic visual worlds meet object-like works. Much seems to flow into one another and condense, opening up new perspectives while simultaneously allowing the distinct character of each individual position to stand out clearly.
Opening: Saturday, May 16, 2026, 11 a.m.
Welcome: Roman Grabner [Director, BRUSEUM]
