Take a look at the new Dorotheum Magazine
Spring is here! And with it the new issue of Dorotheum myART MAGAZINE!
The artists Jakob Lena Knebl and Ashley Hans Scheirl present themselves in bright green on the cover of the 23rd issue of the Dorotheum art magazine. In the interview, they talk about the art of seduction, the grotesque and humourous, as well as their very personal passion for collecting.
Nature has always been a timeless and potent muse for artists, just as it is for Dorotheum’s spring auctions – and, naturally, for Dorotheum’s myART MAGAZINE as well. This issue features nature-themed works by the likes of Louyse Moillon, Tina Blau and Carl Moll, not to mention Mario Schifano, Francis Picabia and others. Writer Kathrin Röggla gives voice to Silene, natural-mythological figure and plant genus in one, among other things to illuminate the plight of endangered fauna. In keeping with the season, Dorotheum’s specialists share insights into their favourite gardens, including the historical and quite literally picturesque gardens at Liebermann Villa.
In addition to background stories on the auction highlights of the first half of 2024, such as an astronomical compendium from the 16th century, dazzling light objects and vibrant canvases by ZERO co-founder Heinz Mack or a remarkable portrait sketch by Francisco de Goya, you can also read about Anja Salomonowitz’s film “Sleeping with a Tiger” about Maria Lassnig and the relationship between fine art, politics and theatre in the work of Milo Rau, the new artistic director of the Wiener Festwochen.
