When the majestic peaks of the Hohe Tauern are reflected in the windows of Gradonna Mountain Resort<\/a>, it almost feels like standing in front of a work of art. A work of art created through the interplay of nature and humankind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is a subtle hint of what awaits at the Gradonna Mountain Resort at Gro\u00dfglockner: a curated selection of works that bring the magic and power of the mountains indoors. Displayed in a place that naturally completes their effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Join us on this page for a small, refined vernissage featuring seven selected works:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lois Salcher<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>

What emotions are triggered when looking at certain color surfaces \u2013 and conversely: which colors are able to express certain emotions? <\/p><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The artist from Lienz thinks and paints in color spaces where emotion and surface merge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Helene Maria Schorn<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

From her parents\u2019 home, she looked out at the Hohe Tauern mountains as a child. It was therefore only natural to artistically engage with the mountains. Through transformed palette knife techniques and atmospheric color choices, her works have a unique radiance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HELMUT STROBL<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the design of the Maximilian Chapel at Gradonna and the floating fragment of his \u201cWorld Image of Peace,\u201d Helmut Strobl has created a quiet yet powerful place of remembrance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PETER NIEDERTSCHEIDER<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bathing culture dates back to ancient times \u2013 a tradition that is also celebrated at Gradonna. Sculptures made of Swiss stone pine, artfully stacked and styled after classical nudes, welcome guests in the entrance area \u2013 a subtle reference to the wellness area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WOLFGANG B\u00d6HMER<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The artist from Innsbruck creates nature images that express existential experiences such as happiness, sorrow or joy. With \u201cNaturalized,\u201d works are created directly in and with nature, inspired by powerful places such as the Gradonna rock \u2013 a place of particular calm and strength.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
