The Conquest of Space: Rediscovering Art at the Augustiner Museum
How is spatial depth created in a work of art? During the tour The Conquest of Space, Berthold Maier from the Friends of the Augustiner Museum invites you to a special discovery experience through the collection. The focus is on spatial representations in art and the different ways artists make closeness, distance, perspective, and architecture visible.
Perspectives, Depth, and Artistic Spatial Effects
The tour opens the eyes to details that easily remain hidden during individual museum visits. Paintings and other artworks are examined from the perspective of how space is constructed, experienced, and depicted. Lines, proportions, overlaps, and architectural elements become traces of an exciting visual journey of discovery.
