WENTRUP AM FEENTEICH From 22 August 2021 onwards
Housed in a three-storey mansion with an outdoor sculpture garden, Wentrup am Feenteich will be a unique destination for art collectors, professionals and enthusiasts from across the world that fosters interdisciplinary exchange and dialogue in a sophisticated yet welcoming setting.
Set on a serene lakeside in an Art Nouveau villa, Wentrup am Feenteich is a new concept in the art world that aims to move beyond the conventional white cube environment. In addition to being a space for collectors to experience contemporary art of the highest calibre, it also facilitates encounters between visual art and other creative, cultural and academic fields.
The inaugural presentation in Wentrup am Feenteich’s indoor galleries will feature: new creations by Nevin Aladag, Thomas Grünfeld, Sophie von Hellermann, Gregor Hildebrandt, John McAllister, Gerold Miller, David Renggli, Jan-Ole Schiemann, and Thomas Wachholz.
In the garden, new sculptures by Nevin Aladag, and Gregor Hildebrandt will be on display together with works by Olaf Metzel, Gerold Miller, and David Renggli.
A series of intimate discussion evenings will bring together luminaries from art, design, architecture, science, philosophy, theatre, dance and more. The conversational environment will see creators, curators, directors, collectors and scholars contribute their diverse expertise, providing a convivial forum for dialogue and exchange of ideas.
Each based around a different subject or theme, these informal monthly gatherings will use the work of a particular artist as a starting point. The first, taking place in September, explores the relationship between art and music, with a focus on the artist Nevin Aladag.
Designer Sebastian Herkner has been appointed to craft the interiors of Wentrup am Feenteich.
