Nature never deceives us. It is always we who deceive ourselves.
The two artists in the March exhibition at BURN-IN Gallery have dedicated their nature paintings entirely to the annual theme of INTUITION AND EMOTION.
The call BACK TO NATURE by the writer and philosopher JEAN-JACQUES ROUSSEAU already influenced many scientists in the 18th century and triggered later counter-movements to industrialization. Also in the present nature is a trend, which leads from numerous bio supermarkets over the fascination for Urban Gardening to the city flight of young families.
The urge to get outside creates a new human-nature relationship in modern leisure culture and transfers nature to a fascinating object. You can see the fascination of capturing, reducing and transforming nature into an artistic work in the works of Josefine Blaich and Isabelle Habegger. Both have already participated in exhibitions at the BURN-IN Gallery.
Art in construction
The subject of art in construction is particularly preoccupied with the Swiss artist Isabelle Habegger. On the occasion of the 800th anniversary celebration of the municipality of Wollerau(CH), she created a movable CUBUS made of chrome-nickel steel.
"Panta rhei - Everything flows," said the Greek philosopher Heraclitus, alluding to the eternal change of being. Because "In life, nothing stops, it goes on and on," according to the artist. The CUBUS symbolizes the two important characteristics of the municipality: mobility (the cube turns in the wind) and stability (clear forms) and thus becomes an authentic, identity-creating cultural ambassador in the canton of Schwyz. Folder and project description CUBUS.
The example shows that holistic communication is also reflected in an authentic, strategically planned corporate architecture, a built identity . The building structure becomes a brand ambassador and "speaks" to the environment, tells exciting stories and is a central component of the corporate identity of companies and municipal institutions. The BURN-IN program includes: Facade paintings, artistic ensembles, installations, glass art, sculptures.... Commissioned art is gaining more and more importance!
Individuality as a secret luxury.
Private lifestyles
Faith Popcorn presented already in the 80s the megatrend of cocooning, the "exclusive spinning in" in their own, perfectly staged living worlds. The logical consequence: discerning consumers rely on the creation of unique living worlds, which are created in collaboration with international artists entirely according to personal ideas. Art and individual interior design turns out to be a tingling elixir of life and touches through its uniqueness and excellence. Life is a very personal composition.
