The exhibition ‘Colour’s Open Secret’, which will be shown at the Goetheanum until 20 July 2022, offers insight into the diverse creative work of the painter Hans Hermann. His work covers a wide range from naive painting to attempts at grasping the sensory and supersensory in abstract pictures to the liberation of colour.
The exhibition at the Goetheanum features 20 paintings by Margarita Voloshina (1882–1973). The works from the second half of her life come from the Goetheanum collection, the Rudolf Steiner Archives and two private collections. Works by her husband, Maximilian Voloshin, will also be exhibited.
From 25 June to 30 September 2021, the Swiss artist Heikedine Günther will show her latest work, ‘Concentric Circles’, at the Goetheanum. The more than 50 oil paintings and monotypes open up a world of impulses and reveal their effect on the surroundings.
The Visual Art Section at the Goetheanum calls on professional visual artists to submit art work on the topic of Corona. With this appeal the Section would like to highlight two things, firstly, that the artistic work continues, and secondly, that even during a pandemic art is important.
One of the tasks of the Visual Art Section at the Goetheanum is to create and communicate art in all its visual, tangible qualities. Christiane Haid, the new director of the section, has appointed a team of artists in order to meet the needs of this broad professional field.
Claudy Jongstra will be at the Goetheanum from 5 to 8 February during the exhibition of her monumental installation ‘Woven Skin’ (2018) made from felted wool. In addition, her triptych ‘Landscape in Pointillism’ (2019) will be exhibited in the foyer of the Goetheanum until the end of May 2020.
Four leadership changes will take place at the Goetheanum by Easter 2020. Ueli Hurter has been appointed as the fifth member of the Executive Council. This appointment still requires the approval of the General Assembly in April. The leadership positions of the Natural Science Section, the Visual Arts Section and the General Anthroposophical Section will also be newly filled.
