Until 16 November 2018 the photographs will be on view at the same time as the exhibition Viewing the Other (friday 2 pm to 6 pm).

On the occasion of the leading international trade fair ceramitec (10 to 13 April 2018), the Alexander Tutsek-Stiftung invited scholarship holders, professors, as well as staff from supported ceramic institutions to the foundation’s galleries.
The current exhibition Viewing the Other shows three sculptures by Raimund Kummer, which are representative of his oeuvre. In the artist talk he discusses his work as a whole and places the presented works in the context of the exhibition.
At the beginning of this year the Alexander Tutsek-Stiftung supported the two artists with their diploma projects at the Akademie der Bildenden Künste München. From 7 to 29 April 2018 they are showing their final-year works as well as new pieces in the exhibition entitled Hold the Line at the Neue Galerie Landshut, which is located in a Gothic building called Stadel on Mühleninsel.
