When History Gets a Face: Roxana Panetta at Trausnitz Castle
The vernissage Hidden Championnes – Portraits of Invisible Women since the Middle Ages opens on April 30, 2026, at Trausnitz Castle, creating an art-historical appealing space between memory, painting, and female visibility. Roxana Panetta dedicates herself to women for whom no portraits from their lifetime have survived, transforming historical absence into an evocative aesthetic experience.
Painting as an Act of Reappropriation
Panetta works in a visual language that combines historical portrait tradition with contemporary sensitivity. Her works do not showcase a museum reconstruction but rather an interpretative painting that does not conceal the missing image but consciously makes it productive. Oil and ink, as the artistic practice of the series, give the portraits depth, presence, and a quiet dignity.
Invisible Women, Visible Impact
The title of the exhibition refers to a cultural-historical gap: women whose contributions in science, music, politics, or society have continued, yet whose faces have been lost. It is precisely within this that the art experience unravels its special power. The examination of the works becomes a search for traces that sharpens the focus on memory culture, gender history, and the power of images.
Short Lecture, Broad Perspective
The vernissage is complemented by a short lecture on historical women who are still regarded as role models and inspiration today. Thus, the exhibition gains a museum pedagogical dimension that goes beyond mere viewing: It connects art education, cultural enlightenment, and historical context into a concentrated evening full of stimuli.
The Venue: Chapel Corridor at Trausnitz Castle
The presentation in the chapel corridor of Trausnitz Castle, on the ground floor and accessible through the courtyard, enhances the special exhibition atmosphere. The historical framework of the residence castle meets contemporary art that questions belonging, visibility, and memory. This creates an exciting dialogue between architecture, spatial effect, and portrait art.
Conclusion: This vernissage promises a sensual and at the same time enlightening encounter with painting, history, and female self-assertion. Anyone seeking art with depth, cultural relevance, and atmospheric density should not miss this evening in Landshut.
