Rearte Gallery zu Gast in Retz Wenn man in Retz von Kunst und Kultur spricht, denkt man sofort an das wunderschöne Ensemble der mittelalterlichen Kleinstadt im Nordosten Österreichs. Zu den bedeutendsten Sehenswürdigkeiten zählen wohl das 25 km lange unterirdische Kellersystem, das Rathaus mit der Rathauskapelle am Hauptplatz sowie die zum Großteil erhaltene Stadtmauer. Die Stadt samt Burg und Dominikanerkloster (einzige dreischiffige Hallenkirche Österreichs) entstanden bereits im 13. Jahrhundert. Die einzige, original restaurierte Windmühle Österreichs befindet sich ebenfalls in Retz. Doch nicht nur diese historischen Bauwerke locken jährlich tausende Besucher nach Retz, auch das Festival Retz ist über alle Grenzen hinweg bekannt und wurde zum besten Sommertheater Niederösterreichs gekürt. Zum zentralen Bestandteil des Kulturlebens in der niederösterreichisch-mährischen Grenzregion haben sich die regelmäßigen Kunstausstellungen im Stadt- und Rathaus entwickelt. Im Jahr 2007 wurde im Zuge des Umbaues des Stadtamtes ein Raum für Kunst und Kultur geschaffen. Sowohl heimische Künstler und Kunsthandwerker als auch Kunstschaffende aus dem In- und Ausland haben die Möglichkeit hier ihre Werke zu präsentieren. Die Ausstellung „Rearte Gallery zu Gast in Retz“ ist in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Arabisch Österreichischen Haus für Kunst und Kultur und dem Verein Global Calligraphy Vienna entstanden.
Als Kuratorin dieser Ausstellung freut es mich ganz besonders, die vielfältige, spannende Zusammenstellung der Werke der ausgewählten Künstler aus Ägypten, Iran, Jordanien, Österreich und Ungarn zu zeigen. Plastiken, Malerei und arabische sowie persische Kalligraphien wechseln einander ab, eine farbige, harmonische Welt, geprägt von orientalischem Expressionismus, phantastischem Realismus sowie abstrakten Skulpturen entsteht. Scheinbar schwebend wirkende Objekte tanzen durch den Raum. Tausendundeine Nacht – man ist verzaubert. Diesen Eindruck mitzunehmen wünsche ich den Besuchern und den Künstlern und der Ausstellung viel Erfolg!
