A Journey ThroughEast German Art Scenes – from Brandenburg through Berlin and Leipzig to Dresden. Our new group exhibition brings together painting, photography, and sculpture, each offering a unique artistic perspective.
Collage is evident in Fausto Amundarain’s works—but not in the traditional sense. No cut-out paper, no mounted fragments.
The group exhibition *New Artists Show* brings together drei —Johannes Ehemann, Lev Khesin, and Rhea Standke—whose drei explores contemporary visual spaces that straddle the line between experimentation with materials and imagination.
Building on the exhibition *Metamorphosis* (2024) in Düsseldorf, which featured works from Willi Bucher’s “yellow” series, the current exhibition continues the dialogue begun there and focuses on the *Sprachlandschaften* series as well as on works in which painting, language, and space interpenetrate one another.
We have already featured the versatile Aschaffenburg-based artist Stefan F. Konrad in our gallery on several occasions. Now it’s that time again: In the exhibition “Sparsame Brilliance,” Stefan F. Konrad brings together various groups of his works and explores the relationships between them.
In the exhibition *continuo*, Giacomo Santiago Rogado presents works from the series *Intuition*, *Coalescence*, *Accord*, and *Calibra*. The title refers to the idea of a continuum—a state of continuity in which the world appears not as a collection of separate things, but as a network of relationships, transitions, and mutual interactions.

Response

Frankfurt is reopening its “House of Galleries.” The concept has proven successful: More than forty galleries are exhibiting works in vacant office spaces in the Trianon Tower—works that can rival the view of the skyline.
↗ Ursula Scheer, FAZ Art Market, January 23,2026 -
“Frankfurt is back on the art fair map.”
Stefan Kobel, art journalist -
The House of Galleries format appears to be a fitting response to the trade fair fatigue that has spread among many galleries.

Even in times of stagnation, there are rays of hope. Frankfurt’s galleries are aiming high and have organized a new exhibition format in the Trianon Tower in the heart of the city.
Brigitte Maria Sturm, BDVG Chairwoman -
This exhibition is already one of the absolute highlights of the Frankfurt art year, although January is not even over yet [...].

There hasn't been an art fair in Frankfurt for 18 years. But on Friday evening, the "House of Galleries" will open for a weekend in the vacant executive offices of the Trianon high-rise. A bar and views of the skyline are intended to attract new visitors.
