Until March 7th, 2021, the gugging gallery invites you to discover the works of two exceptional Austrian artists of overpainting and overdrawing. Over above… presents about 15 works by Arnulf Rainer and a collection of 60 works by Leopold Strobl, who celebrates his 60th birthday this year.
Leopold Strobl has been part of Gugging (Austria) for the last ten years, finding comfort and redemption in art, a way of holding his mental demons off. He draws with colored pencil on small-format. Crafted on landscape photographs found in newspapers, his drawings are similar to magnetic portals. Strobl is part of the Museum Of Modern Art (New York) collections since 2018, his work was presented the following year in the exhibition Photo | Brut at the Rencontres d’Arles. In 2024, his work was presented at the Venice Biennale, curated by Adriano Pedrosa.
