Between Painting and Sculpture: An Evening for the Silent Power of Art
The vernissage with Christoph Drexler and Martin Kargruber at the Kunstverein Landshut e.V. promises a multifaceted art experience between painting, sculpture, and concentrated examination of works. On June 12, 2026, a space will open in the Herrngasse where color, form, and material engage in a poetic dialogue.
Christoph Drexler: Landscape as Picture Space
Christoph Drexler, born in 1955 in Eichstätt, studied from 1977 to 1983 at the Academy of Fine Arts Munich under Prof. Horst Sauerbruch. His artistic signature revolves around painting, printmaking, and drawing. In the series of his oil paintings, landscapes do not appear as mere representations of nature, but as condensed picture spaces where light and color create an almost meditative tension. The reduction to houses, trees, fields, mountains, sea, and beach gives his works a quiet, concentrated presence.
Martin Kargruber: Sculpture, Wood, and Spatial Tension
Martin Kargruber hails from the Gsiesertal in South Tyrol, lives and works in Petzenhofen near Geltendorf, and has been teaching at the Municipal Vocational School for Wood Sculpture in Munich since 2009. His biography is closely linked to sculpture, wooden sculpture, and drawing thought. The artist's works unfold a strong physical presence: wood, volume, and surface become carriers of movement, spatial feeling, and craftsmanship precision. Numerous exhibitions in Germany and abroad, as well as the monograph from the inside out…, attest to his artistic authority.
A Dialogue of Materials
What makes this exhibition particularly appealing is the tension field between painting and sculpture. Drexler's pictorial worlds open inner horizons, while Kargruber's sculptural works make space itself the topic. Thus, an aesthetic experience emerges in which visual calm and formal energy mutually enhance each other. For art enthusiasts, a precisely curated evening unfolds here, combining sensuality and reflection.
