Interviews

What affects your choice of colors? What made you start making artwork out of old books? You are in fact a mortician and now also gallery owner, how did that happen? Art.Salon allowed itself to ask artists questions that literally impose themselves when looking at the Art. The interviews with contemporary artists allow us to look deeply and understand better.

Controversy

Art makes politics – but that does not only refer to the work. Art politicizes itself not only through its creator. Also the scene reproduces injustices. The Art.Salon explored political controversies such as the gender pay gap and looted art.

Louise Bourgeois

The indomitable artist Louise Bourgeois stirred up the U.S. art world until she was nearly 100 years old. Born near Paris in 1911, she reckoned with her oppressive family history until her death in 2010: Ambiguous genitalia, morbid massacre installations, oversized spiders, and numerous other creative works bear witness to this cathartic process.

Exhibtion
Art Market

For those on the outside, the art market is opaque and often poses a mystery. Trends are difficult to see from the outside, and being included in the circle of collectors leaves you perplexed at the beginning. The Art.Salon brings light into the darkness, where the art market is otherwise rather hidden.
