K.Art - Kränzelhof

The ‘K.art Art Days’ are a special cultural event that combines art, nature and human encounters in an impressive way. For participating artist Carl Pfeil, the onset of autumn and winter symbolises a time of calm and slow withdrawal from society, a preparation for intensive work and self-reflection. As in hibernation, his mind and soul want to remain undisturbed during this phase. The ‘K.art Art Days’ offer him one last opportunity to actively exchange ideas with other artists and visitors before this retreat, because these four days function not only as a platform for artistic presentations, but also as a place for encounters, dialogue, buying and selling.

Carl is particularly fascinated by the venue, with which he has been very familiar since his childhood, but is now experiencing it from a new perspective.
The Kränzelhof, a medieval winery, has developed into a cultural centre in recent years. The unique atmosphere of this place enriches the exhibitions, by bringing not only the artworks but also the artists themselves into a harmonious interplay with the surroundings.
The ‘K.art Art Days’ are no ordinary art event, but an experience that unites art, nature and human interaction in a spiritual and communal context.
Nature creates open spaces in which art and nature interact with each other. The liveliness of the natural space relaxes the mind and the pauses in perception open up new perspectives.
It is worth mentioning that part of the exhibition takes place in the ‘Nusshäusl’, where the concentrated energy of the works unfolds. The tension that arises between inside and outside reflects the metaphor of life.
The ‘K.art Art Days’ thus offer a welcome opportunity to detach oneself from the hectic pace of everyday life and immerse oneself in a world of creativity and exchange.
