FINISSAGE
Sunday, May 26, 2019 11:00 - 16:00

We look back on a successful art KARLSRUHE 2019. Many new customers have discovered us and our art for themselves. More than 25 works by 12 artists have found a new home and we are pleased about so much positive response and our greatest success at art KARLSRUHE in all these years! Many Thanks!

Our two one-artist shows with the artists Jürgen Heinz and Karen Shahverdyan impressed the visitors of the art Karlsruhe.

Jürgen Heinz, our metal sculptor who presented his "Moving sculptures" for the first time, was always surrounded by crowds of interested people. His works have the gift of communicating with the beholder, of touching and captivating him. In silence and contemplation, we are asked to act. And as we gently give small impulses things start to move with a lightness, which gives us a smile as we immerse to a belonging part of the artwork.

Karen Shahverdyan, the hyperrealist, makes us dream in his "beach scenes," but also encourages philosophizing - about our environment and life itself. Karen Shahverdyan, an unbelievable talent, with its sea landscapes, beach scenes, stunning appearances as in the painting "Flamingo" keep us in amazement.

But Jérome Lagarrigue, Jonathan Huxley, Joanna Jesse, Stefanie Welk, Jesus Miguel Rodriguez de la Torre, Esther Miranda, Jerome Proske, Bernhard Vogel, Nadine Liesse and Jana and JS again found happy buyers of their works.

Our diversity, quality and passion make us look back on an eventful and successful show with an inspiring exchange about art and great encounters. Many thanks to all who made this happen. We are looking forward to next year. With this article we are happy to present impressions of our booth.

Kindest regards and best wishes

Until soon…

Yours Petra Kern

Dear friends of Fine Art, dear visitors to art KARLSRUHE,

you will find us again in Karlsruhe for the 8th time at our usual location in Hall 3, Stand H36 on 125 m² presenting 15 artists and we look forward to new encounters like those with familiar faces, friends and customers.

This year we are dedicating our two one-artist shows to the artists Jürgen Heinz and Karen Shahverdyan. Jürgen Heinz, a metal sculptor whose "Moving sculptures" communicate with the observer, touch, cast a spell over them and invite them to take action. Karen Shahverdyan, the hyperrealist brings us in his "beach scenes" into our dreams but also into thinking about philosophy, the environment and our own attitude towards life.

Besides Jürgen Heinz also new in our artist-family is the sculptor Stefanie Welk, whose three-dimensional  “wire drawings” create an energetic reality that the same time dissolve and connect body and space boundaries.

Experience "art spaces" full of surprises on our stand and let yourself be inspired by the variety and quality of our artists. Our catalog gives you a preview and invites you to immerse yourself into the artworld of Kunst-Kompetenz-Petra Kern. We look forward to you!

If you want to visit us at art KARLSRUHE, please let us know whether we may send you the invitation for Preview and Vernissage, the 20th of February 2019 or a ticket for one of the open days, the 21st until the 24th of February 2019. Unfortunately our allotment of tickets for this year is spent. If you go to this link https://www.art-karlsruhe.de/de/tickets/ you can buy tickets for one of the regular days of art KARLSRUHE.

We are looking forward to seeing us again in Karlsruhe

Sincerely yours Petra Kern

How beautiful my job, in which I surround myself with the beautiful things, which again and again let time stand still, touch and enchant.

In February we took off at art KARLSRUHE. On 125m² we presented 15 artists from our program with One-Artist-Shows by Jonathan Huxley and Hieronymus Proske.

In March, we were saddened by the death of our loved artist Jan Peter Kranig. With him, a decade-long cooperation and deep friendship closely connected us. He was a great artist who brought fantastic realism on canvas with admirable patience. His cheerfulness and his positive charisma especially in the last few years showed a satisfied, happy person. He leaves a big gap for his wife and family and affected collectors. But in his art, he will stay in our hearts forever.

We are pleased about our two "newcomers", the artists Stefanie Welk and Jürgen Heinz from Mannheim and Darmstadt, whom we presented to the public in our exhibition "Sichtweisen" in Mannheim in September. Sculptures made of steel, movement from the inside and moved from the outside delighted our audience. Both will be at the upcoming art KARLSRUHE 2019 for the first time.

We have a lot of plans for 2019. In February we will start with the art KARLSRUHE; Further exhibitions in March / April and July are already in preparation. Let yourself be surprised.

Art is location-independent, art touches everywhere: Kunst - Kompetenz -Petra Kern comes to Mannheim with a large exhibition.

To send light into the depths of the human heart is, as Robert Schumann calls it, the profession of the artist. My dedication is to touch the human hearts, all their senses, through art, to initiate views from different perspectives and to make art accessible to all people, and this for more than 20 years.

A new exhibition venue in the heart of Mannheim - thanks to the architect Wolfgang Naumer - gives me the opportunity to generously create space for my artists and their art works. Different perspectives of sculptors and painters, international as well as regional, are presented in a great suspense on an area of about 300 m².

Nineteen artists, nine of them sculptors, show their perspectives on people, nature and architecture and also encourage the beholder to open his view on things. Give yourself some time to breathe and a break...

We invite you to our exhibition

With 15 artists from 8 countries, we presented a broader and more international selection of art than ever. The mix of material of our sculptures was also immensely diverse. Ranged from teakwood globes and filigree light sculptures to an arc of suspense of stone and acrylic and steel sculptures underlined our great selection. Each art collectors could discover their personal highlight.

At our stand, we celebrated a reunion with many dear customers of recent years, reached new audiences, aroused curiosity and excitement.

And finally, this year 21 works of art found a new home. This reflects our concept as our passion and love for art, which fills us with happiness and delight. To keep you and the art that gives us so much, connected, we are excited to announce that our next event is already in planning status. which is expected to take place in June 2018 in Heidelberg. An invitation will be sent to you in good time.
