Exhibition director Johanna Penz: “Which art fair is already flowing through the Olympiahalle? Innsbruck can do it!”
Innsbruck (pts023 / 28.10.2021 / 12:40) – “Not even Munich can do that”, said the satisfied trade fair director Johanna Penz about the soft opening with invited guests for the 25th anniversary edition of ART Innsbruck in the Olympiaworld of the state capital. There were top politicians, the most important business captains and, of course, a few art lovers. Penz: “Fortunately, there were already respectable sales on the opening evening and I’m looking forward to the next few days. ART Innsbruck is just as much a part of Innsbruck as the Golden Roof or the Bergisel.”
ART Innsbruck – opening times in the Olympiaworld Innsbruck from October 28th to 31st, 2021: Thu., Fri., Sun .: 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sat 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. (the 3-G rule applies to visitors). http://www.art-innsbruck.com
Opening speeches by the former mayor and the former vice mayor
In her opening speech, the city councilor and former Innsbruck mayor Mag. Christine Oppitz-Plörer, as the official representative of the city of Innsbruck and the state of Tyrol, emphasized the importance of ART Innsbruck for all artists. From a special point of view, one would be particularly enthusiastic that such a top-class event like Die Kunstmesse Innsbruck can finally take place again after all the postponements caused by corona. She expressly congratulates the founder and trade fair director Johanna Penz for her enormous show of strength, courage and her particular perseverance in organizing this event in spite of all adversities.
ART Innsbruck belongs to Innsbruck and Tyrol like the “Golden Roof”
In her welcoming address, the founder and trade fair manager Johanna Penz particularly emphasized the responsibility, if not least of all, to the exhibitors: feel that they would have built up over the years of their collector’s and lover’s circle in Innsbruck. “You can’t just give up and skip the year just because it’s uncomfortable and extremely last. I had the wish to realize this 25th ART Innsbruck as a live event for everyone, if necessary wildly determined,” said you. Johanna Penz. “I didn’t want any digital alibi actions. Art needs encounters, art needs dialogue, art needs communication, so art also needs trade fairs. The real experience of the works of art in the room cannot be replaced by the Golden Roof or the Bergisel.”
Your optimistic and uncompromising approach apparently spurred others on and therefore the ART Innsbruck was soon fully booked with excellent galleries and artists.
Olympiaworld is very interested in promoting fine arts in-house
The authorized signatory of Olympiaworld Innsbruck, GR Christoph Kaufmann, long-time Vice Mayor of Innsbruck, says how pleased that. Olympiaworld is very interested in expanding the visual arts in its house.
