Fire as an Image Force: Astrid Schötterl in Gstadt am Chiemsee

The exhibition FIRE - IMAGES - melted, poured, burned leads into a sensual imagery made of beeswax, damar resin, pigments, shellac and fire. In the House of Guests Gstadt, visitors encounter a material aesthetics that emphasizes warmth, chance, layering, and traces of the process.

Material as Experience

Astrid Schötterl works with media that not only create surface but also depth, shine, and density. Wax and resin open a space between painting and object art, between controlled gesture and open flow. The contemplation of the works becomes an aesthetic experience here: color does not stand still; it solidifies, flows, and condenses in the pictorial space.

The Language of Fire

In this exhibition, fire does not appear merely as a motif but as a creative force. The burning, melting, and pouring point to artistic processes in which control and unpredictability intertwine. This tension gives the exhibition a unique atmosphere, oscillating between intimacy and energy.

Art Historical Resonance Room

The work with transformed materials connects to central lines of contemporary art, where material, process, and trace are as important as the finished work. The exhibition on the upper floor of the House of Guests provides a fitting frame: a bright room with a view of Lake Chiemsee, which sharpens the perception of the images and embeds the art experience in the landscape.

Place, Space, and Perception

The House of Guests in Gstadt is known as an exhibition venue for cultural offerings by the lake. Its location at Seeplatz 5 combines regional roots with open hospitality.
