KARIN FRANK SKULPTUREN

Karin Frank works mainly sculptural, often figuratively. Wood is her preferred material. Her works show the essence and personality of those depicted. Feelings and movement patterns are inscribed in the sculptures. In this way, lomographic-like interpretations of what is seen are created. (Dr. Franz Ablinger)

The artist Karin Frank will be present during the opening weekend from 12.-14.05. in WERKSTADT GRAZ.

IN MEMORY OF PETER WEIBEL

WERKSTADT GRAZ has maintained a constructive and quality relationship with Peter Weibel for over 3 decades. He was particularly interested in the internationalization of WERKSTADT GRAZ. A considerable joint body of work grew in the form of initiatives, editions, projects and publications. Within the framework of AKTUELLE KUNST IN GRAZ, we honor this fruitful collaboration and honor the memory of our dear friend Peter Weibel. (Joachim Baur)
