Show

After we had the privilege of exhibiting ten very special new artists in 2024 and dealing with exciting topics from perception to distortion to transformation, we are dedicating our last exhibition of the year to ‘Relazione’. No one could shed more authentic light on such a subject than two long-standing companions of the Galleria Sacchetti: Annelies Štrba and Marlis Spielmann. We are looking forward to new works, as well as to historical pieces from the artists’ collections, and are excited to see how the photographer and the silhouette artist approach our theme of context.

Impressions

Artists

Annelies Štrba has made a name for herself with her multimedia works, which explore the interplay between photography, painting and installation. Her atmospheric creations capture personal stories and emotional landscapes, inviting the viewer into a realm of introspection and wonder.

The second glance plays a central role in Marlis Spielmann’s work. The Zurich-based artist uses the thinnest parchment paper to create works in meticulous detail that could not be further from the stereotypical Swiss silhouette. In her cuts, Spielmann plays with precisely these stereotypes and shows us how quickly expectations can lead us up the garden path.
