Anniversaries under the sign of art
The photo artist Andrea Grützner creates images that at first glance appear to be collages or even models. However, they are in fact individual analogue photographs that create references to the geometric forms of color field painting (Rundgænger).
Galleries are places of the present - and at the same time archives of continuity. The fact that they open up spaces for artistic positions over years and decades is not a matter of course. The Saisonstart 2025 Saisonstart provides an opportunity to celebrate several anniversaries that highlight the staying power of gallery owners.
Die Galerie Rundgænger Die Galerie is celebrating its tenth anniversary with an exhibition that oscillates between photography and painting. With works by photographic artist Andrea Grützner and painters Theresa Möller and Anna Nero, the focus is on positions that interweave figuration and abstraction—a curatorial signature that also shapes the gallery's own profile.
The CHRISTEL WAGNER GALERIE is celebrating its twentieth anniversary. It is opening the three-part series Accrochage en 3 Sections, in which works of different genres are juxtaposed. The principle of hanging emphasizes dialogue and refers to the openness of the program that die Galerie has been pursuing die Galerie two decades.
The history of Galerie AM PARK goes back even further, spanning 25 years. Its anniversary exhibition features works by Diego Rivera, Salvador Dalí, and Eduardo Chillida, among others—a program that highlights the diversity of modern and contemporary art.
Finally, the Barbara von Stechow Gallery is celebrating 30 years of gallery work. The focus is on a solo exhibition by Heiner Meyer, whose figurative, Pop Art-influenced paintings set the tone: colorful, narrative, unmistakable.
The anniversary exhibitions at the Saisonstart not only tell of artistic works, but also of perseverance, passion and a Frankfurt gallery life that has asserted itself and developed over decades.
