Exhibitions & Workshops
Archaic – Organic: Pi Ledergerber (sculptures) and Dieter Konsek (painting, drawing) from 19.07.2025 to 07.09.2025
Sculptures and paintings
You and your friends are cordially invited to the opening on Friday, July 18 at 7.00 pm.
Welcome: Dr. Wolff Voltmer (1st Chairman)
Introduction: Dr. Andreas Gabelmann (art historian)
The sculptor Pi Ledergerber creates extraordinary stone sculptures that have an astonishingly fragile effect, yet are completely stable. The individual elements of his sculptures made of basalt, marble or granite appear to be loosely stacked or unstably layered, but are always created from a single block through sophisticated saw cuts and are therefore solid. Towering like stelae or compact like cubes, Ledergeber’s works explore the tension between heaviness and lightness, appearing both reduced and delicately moving. The artist lives and works in Hohenfels.
The painter and draughtsman Dieter Konsek deals with themes of growth and development in his mostly large-format compositions. The starting point for his gestural-expressive paintings and drawings are intensive observations of nature, which he openly and fragmentarily dissolves into organic growth processes using acrylic paint, charcoal and pastel chalk on canvas and paper, while at the same time powerfully condensing them. Dynamics, rhythm and transformation characterize the elementary expression of his nature-related works. The artist lives and works in Wilhelmsdorf near Ravensburg.

“Radolfzell from 0 to 100”: exhibition by the Blende20 photo club
101 new, unusual and exciting perspectives on the city: this is made possible by the photo exhibition “Radolfzell from 0 to 100” by the Blende20 photo friends, which can be seen from Wednesday, 17.09.2025, in the Villa Bosch at Scheffelstraße 8 in Radolfzell. The vernissage will take place on Sunday, 14.09.2025, at 19.00 hrs. The opening will be accompanied by music from Anna Hainmüller and the ViaVocals, with Michael Fuchs giving the laudatory speech. The photographers’ works can then be admired until Sunday, 16.11.2025, during the opening hours of Villa Bosch from Wednesday to Sunday from 2.00 pm to 5.30 pm.
In the exhibition, visitors can discover a total of 101 photographs of Radolfzell, which open up an unusual, exciting and certainly surprising view of the town. On display are buildings, views of the city, moments from city life and motifs that are historically or emotionally closely linked to Radolfzell and its history. Each photo features a number from 0 to 100 – sometimes very obvious and directly recognizable, other times hidden and only to be found at second or third glance.
“Photography should be fun” is the motto of the Blende20 photo friends, whose circle of friends has existed since 2012. There are 20 active members from the professional and amateur sectors who go hunting for motifs together and discuss their passion at regular meetings. There is a lot to experience at Blende20: In addition to informal discussion groups, the joint activities include photo walks, themed days, photo rallies, quarterly competitions and joint projects and exhibitions. The photographers often work together with the city’s Department of Culture. Since 2022, they have also been an integral part of the Radolfzell Culture Night.
