Cultural night in Radolfzell

Shady Altamar

Shady Almatar’s graphics are usually economical, often almost sparse, and therefore all the more effective. They talk about faith, home and identity – and about the fact that we are all in the same boat at the end of the day. His work thrives on contrast, black clashes with white, light with shadow, good with evil – but where the boundaries blur, there is no diffuse grey area: the forms overlap and together create something new with its very own identity, symbolized by the hopeful ray of sunshine that is inherent throughout his work.

Sofia Still

The artist Sofia Still (born 1975) has been living on Lake Constance as a freelance painter since 2013.

The artist works with oil paints, the medium that enables her to “experience time as fluid and impermanent, belonging simultaneously to the past and the present”, says Sofia Still.

Gabi Vogt – the art of paper folding

Even as a child, Gabriele Vogt was magically attracted to all kinds of paper. Every scrap of color that could be found was used to create the piece. She later got to know origami and was fascinated by the endless possibilities of being creative without scissors and glue and of constantly folding and developing new models.

Folding beautiful, funny and practical things from a sheet of paper using only your hands: There is nothing that has not already been depicted in origami. Animals, flowers, vehicles, stars … Gabi Vogt also gives courses at the VHS in Radolfzell.

Bee art Sabine Carrillo – Pictures made of wax, propolis, gold leaf

During her artistic training in Freiburg, she discovered the materials of bees as a means of expression. Her pictures are created out of affection and admiration for these wonderful animals, which also fascinate her as a beekeeper. Sabine Carrillo has come full circle, combining her love of bees with her artistic work.

Peter Helm
Meditative photography

Seeing is important, not the technology.
An essential element is undivided attention to what he is doing (“doing with all his heart”). Not thinking about what was before and not about what could be after.
Being present in this moment, but not dreaming, but wide awake. That is all.
After taking the photo, the image is processed as little as possible, i.e. later on the computer only the cropping of the image and possibly a slight contrast correction is carried out. That is all. No gimmicks with graphics software.
In addition to “sea pictures”, full moon photographs are also shown as “scroll pictures”, which were created in the style of Japanese scroll pictures.

Beuys Intuition Box Revival – Beuys Intuition Box Revival

This exhibition is all about the intuition box and what intuition actually is. The artist Joseph Beuys (1921-1986) designed and sold 12,000 copies of his Intuition Box between 1968 and 1986. In the fall of 2022, Jean-Charles Roussel came up with the idea of giving artists from the region one of his raw boxes and working materials for Beuys’ box and the following assignment: Design your own intuition box!

Adalbert Brütsch – I see something you don’t see

Photography offers the opportunity to expand the limits of our vision, to gain new impressions and to give the imagination room to maneuver. Making fast processes visible, showing small objects in an unusual size, using long exposures to make nocturnal scenes appear in a new light – these are just a few examples of what Adalbert Brütsch shows. Unusual lighting moods will also be on display. Here, photography gives us the chance to capture special images that can only be admired for a short time so that we can look at them again and again. Portraits as well as landscape and nature photographs round off the selection of images.

Christine Torres-Sprenger – wooden objects and acrylic paintings

Christine Torres-Sprenger moved from Cologne to Stahringen in 2015. Born in Upper Franconia in 1948, she moved to Argentina as a child and returned to Germany to study. She studied art and Spanish for the higher teaching profession at RWTH Aachen University and worked at a grammar school.
Exhibitions were held in Cologne and Bonn and the surrounding area, as well as in Stahringen and Möggingen and at the Kulturnacht 2019.
Torres-Sprenger loves the soft colors and nature. With the found objects made of wood, she is concerned with the painterly elaboration of the inner essence. Soulful images of nature – sometimes more realistic, sometimes more abstract – are recognizable in the paintings.

Compurama

Calculating machines, telephones, radios and computers: in this exhibition, CompuRama-Radolfzell e.V. shows just how fast-moving technology is. What was the most advanced technology a few years ago is now a device that is often ridiculed for its outdated functionality. The laptop of today was the drag-top of the past. Come by and remember the days of your youth!

Printmaking at Wunderfitz – News from the Victoria Graf studio

Last year’s visit to the Zollverein Coal Mine Industrial Complex allowed us to experience the fascination for old empty buildings and their use for culture in a completely different way.
The fascination of the shapes and patterns found there inspired him to create new works. The colors form a contrast to the dreariness of the old colliery – and the newly arranged patterns leave room for interpretation. The result is a new series of prints with a new context and unique presentation.

Short theater city tours with Dina Roos at 8, 9 and 10 pm

Filip Galiot will be mixing cocktails in the Wunderfitz, accompanied by music from the turntable. You can be a real whiz!

Kunstklitsche – Fatin Rahmouni

Street art and contemporary art

The Kunstklitsche is a colorful place where contemporary art is made accessible to everyone.

Radolfzell artist Fatin Rahmouni believes that art is a commodity to which everyone has a right. Contemporary works as well as street art and abstract art are sold. Young and old have the opportunity to express their personality through art. Objects such as bicycle/ski helmets, skateboards or records can be used as canvases, as can porcelain, clothing or even bags.

In this way, art not only finds its way into the home, but also becomes a companion in everyday life.

Sylvia Anders – Creativity breaks open life

Music and colors appeal to the emotions and thoughts in a special way. Without words, Sylvia Anders tries to express her emotions with brush and paint. The curiosity of always creating something new, trying out new techniques, developing imagination and creating something out of things is an exciting experience. Painting means freedom for Anders to do something for himself alone and, when playing with brush and paint, to get involved with feelings for which words are sometimes lacking. This creates relaxation and always fills the artist with great joy.

Kurt Lauer – a life for art

Kurt Lauer became an “art bigamist” through his love of painting and music. His paintings are sometimes rather abstract, sometimes emphatically surrealistic. You can see the attention to detail. Lauer is an explorer, a researcher, a philosopher – the Columbus of painting. His masterpieces combine imagination, chance and vision.
Visitors should be inspired by his works during the Culture Night. The artist will also provide suitable musical entertainment.

Oliver Scharnefski

Feel from the sky to the lake

Oliver Scharnefski, born in 1969 in Schramberg in the Black Forest, turned to art as a teenager. His art teachers advised him to retain his impasto application of paint with relief-like, three-dimensional structural elements as a trademark.
He has lived in Markelfingen since 1997 and is passionate about the Hegau-Bodensee region, which is a recurring theme in his work.
His pictures are painted on wood or canvas in oil, acrylic and lacquer. Relief-like forms are created from platy maché.
Oliver Scharnefski feels at home in this potpourri, as it reflects his inner self: impression through expression – impression through expression.

Textile print design
Screen, flex and sublimation printing

Whether militant squirrels, helicopter parents or sea bears… there are no limits in the Rehfeld world. The mostly monochrome stencil motifs on the organically and fairly produced clothing form clear contrasts to the often brightly colored textiles. Quirky “short stories” that often make you smile, but are mostly bitingly critical and always thought-provoking.
In addition, multi-colored motifs are applied to mugs and baseball caps using flex and sublimation techniques or burned into breakfast boards using laser engraving.

Fancy a smile? Then come and see us!

As a designer, I explore rainforests and study the species inventory in them, especially moths. This incredibly species-rich group of animals is little or not at all published or even recorded – considering there are around 164,000 known butterfly species worldwide. Climate change and population growth are rapidly destroying their habitats. The works shown are an excerpt from my 5-year self-commissioned Citizen Science project on the butterflies of Madagascar’s rainforests. The book is hot off the press, comprises 416 pages and 1,200 illustrations of around 440 species.

Art already in the 3rd generation

Burning for the homeland and cultural landscape. Certainly a lot has changed since the distillery began in 1933.
However, the art of refining fruit varieties in terms of shelf life, sugar content and changes in flavor were the challenges of the past.
Enjoy the time at the still where the distiller creates his reward for his hard work in tending and harvesting his trees.

And let the taste of the landscape go through your stomach with the blossoms on Culture Night.

Black light theater

Continuous text: The term “black light theater” refers to a special form of theatrical performance in which the actors act in a completely darkened room with a black background.

Sylke Rigling – Paintings with a twinkle in her eye

Acrylic paintings that reveal the joy of playing with colors, shapes and formats – this is what Sylke Rigling specializes in. The Markelfingen artist has not committed herself to one style, but is always trying out new things. What her pictures have in common, however, is the wink that runs like a common thread through her work. A rabbit in pink? A beach beauty in an extravagant outfit? A still life whose ingredients include coffee, fabric and paste? Everything to discover at the Radolfzell Culture Night. The name Rigling is certainly familiar to one or the other: Sylke Rigling is the daughter of the Hegau landscape painter Erhard Rigling, in whose footsteps she is following.

Paul Preißer – On the road in Markelfingen

Photographs hang as permanent exhibits in the Markelfingen town hall and also in the Hotel Amelie

Some views are no longer possible, e.g. due to the “Im Tal” development or other changes.

Paul Preißer develops parallel and matching musical pieces that condense visual impressions into an auditory experience, such as “Gewitter” or “Auf der Pirsch”.
