About the event
In memory of the artist Franz Stähler, who died in 2018, international, renowned artists and young, up-and-coming artists from South Tyrol are organising the exhibition FREE FOR ART.
"You can't learn art. At least not everything about it. The most valuable and important things about it can only be realised if you don't take your head too seriously. There are some things that are beyond language and intellect." Franz Stähler
"Sculptures as a never-ending invitation for our eyes to look and learn to see".
What if the world really did emerge free, new and innocent before our eyes? What would happen to our suffering? Is it perhaps only in our imagination that there is always something to understand, to change, to pursue.
An important aspect of Steeler's art was simplicity, a prudent choice of
materials and resources, giving new life through art to discarded and rejected pieces, preserving and honouring the old. Stähler called them "gifts to the earth."
Franz Stähler, the sculptor born in Germany in 1956, already enjoyed a great reputation during his lifetime, especially in southern Europe. His works were shown at exhibitions in China, Paris, Basel, Bologna, Monaco, Cannes, Frankfurt and Turin, among others. Today his works are part of private and public collections in Europe, Asia and the USA.
