from bowie to roth
Unmistakable art for over seventy years - Art Brut and the Gugging artists
The fascination of Gugging's art can be traced back directly to its protagonists: August Walla, Oswald Tschirtner, Johann Hauser, Heinrich Reisenbauer and Johann Korec, to name just a few of Gugging's artists, are among the most important representatives of Art Brut.

marianne maderna im dialog mit den künstlerInnen aus gugging
HUHUMAN is the name Maderna gives to the flat hanging figures made of fluorescent Plexiglas, which in the exhibition “connected” meet masterpieces by the Gugging artists. The figures show recurring archetypal behavior patterns and form a world theater. The apotropaic, the warding off of disaster as an ancient function of art is the purpose of these works. The unsparingly and exaggeratedly reproduced observations of the Gugginger are, like the HUHUMAN, a mirror as well as an admonition. With an essay by art historian Eva Badura-Triska and an interview with the artistic director of museum gugging, Johann Feilacher.

visualized dreams...
Three Art Brut artists who immortalized their dreams in their artworks are the focus of this publication: the Swiss artist Ida Buchmann (1911-2001) and two Artists from Gugging, Johann Fischer (1919-2008) and Johann Korec (1937-2008).
Ida Buchmann's works are characterized by the song lyrics, which she sang aloud while painting. Johann Korec, on the other hand, was inspired by dreams of love and documented these in his paintings. The world how it should be, or how he wished it to be, is reflected in Johann Fischer's text-laden drawings. All three developed an individual written language, which became an integral part of their work. They also share their prominent position within Art Brut, their works being represented in renowned public and private collections and international exhibitions. The richly illustrated catalogue includes essays by Nina Ansperger, Johann Feilacher, Nina Katschnig and Anke Wiedmann.

oswald tschirtner.! it's all about balance.
Oswald Tschirtner, one of the best known and most successful artists from Gugging, would celebrate his 100th birthday in 2020. In his oeuvre, created from 1971 to 2006, abstracted representations of humans - the unmistakable "cephalopods" - form the core of his art. A reduced formal language with black lines and some color accents characterizes the fragility and poetry of his graphic work. On the occasion of his 100th birthday, the first comprehensive monographic book on the artist illuminates the most important positions and creative periods of the artist Oswald Tschirtner.
