One statuette weighs 2 kg and its height is less than 28 cm including the stand. The total length of production of one piece may take up up to three days, but it depends on the number of pieces produced. 30 statuettes may take masters of their craft up to one month.

New production technology

The metal, several-part forms for the lion are filled by injection moulding machine which is a very precise type of press. After completion of the moulding the luxurious statuettes must be cooled down, a process lasting at least one day. Then they are sanded and buffed. The base is manufactured by hand on a blowpipe; the full shape is manually finished by means of a metal mould. The stand, similarly as the statuette of the lion is manually sanded and buffed, too. The lion and the stand are glued together by a cold process and special adhesive.

Thanks to manual production every piece represents a unique original. The lion should make a kind and accommodating impression. What do you think did was this objective of Rony Plesl achieved successfully? We give our full commendation to the new statuette and we appreciate its futuristic and modern design. The only question now remains whose interior it will adorn. And that will be revealed as early as on the evening of 10th March!

Painting created to fit the Great Hall

As she revealed, this space enables independence of her paintings, which she creates using industrial guns spraying colours and which can be created on any base. She also appreciated the luxurious glass ceiling that during the various times of day and different weather conditions lend the interior a new, unique atmosphere.

Her speciality are abstracts. For Katharina they mean a step into a new situation, a visit of another reality. And as she hopes her work will not only be the object to be seen, but also a means for reflection. While the Great Hall was shrouded by the mystery of the abstraction from floor to ceiling, the first floor has been in part mastered by American realism, to a greater degree then by more accessible abstracts and self-portraits, due to their smaller format.

Lifelong work of artist Maria Lassnig

The first floor is occupied by an extensive retrospective of one of the most important artists of the 20th as well as 21st century, Maria Lassnig (1919-2014), which was created in cooperation with Tate Liverpool. You can find here over 50 large-format paintings, drawings and sculptures. Her creation was focused on the human body and self-presentation. Among the luxurious works you can find a number of her quotations that are worth reflecting upon. We have brought you some of them:

“The edge of the painting serves as a border; it is a great pity."

"Art begins with the searching of the brain and also analysis of emotions."

"Our eyes should think."

Although in addition to these major artists you can also find at Trade Fair Palace new works of other authors, these two belong among the most notable ones. But don´t want to reveal all! Visit the Trade Fair Palace on 15. February at 19.00 at the grand opening or any time thereafter.

The luxurious exhibition of Katharina Grosse Miraculous Image will be opened to 7th January 2019, and the retrospective exhibition of Marie Lassnig to 17th June 2018.
