Three artistic perspectives on encounter, identity and cultural exchange
From November 6 to 8, 2026, the Stadelgalerie in the Künstlerhaus Andreas-Stadel in Regensburg will once again transform into a concentrated space of contemporary art. As part of the Stadel temporär exhibition series, Fatemeh Shiri, Mahla Atarhayetehrani and Lena Frauenknecht will present their artistic positions in the context of the InterCultureLab.
Art as a space between cultures
The InterCultureLab understands artistic collaboration as a living process of exchange, participation and cultural networking. Central questions revolve around identity, memory, language, belonging and social togetherness. The exhibition makes visible how different biographies and perceptions converge in contemporary art, opening up new perspectives.
Fatemeh Shiri: Painting and Object Art
Fatemeh Shiri comes from Iran and works in the fields of painting and object art. Her artistic practice revolves around identity, memory, freedom, emotions, and cultural experiences. Materials, forms, and personal imagery combine to form an aesthetic exploration of individual and communal life worlds. Shiri uses art as a means to bring together people from different cultures for dialogue.
Mahla Atarhayetehrani: Between Photorealism and Surrealism
Mahla Atarhayetehrani is a painter, illustrator, and media scientist. Her works navigate between photorealism, hyperrealism, surrealism and fantasy. Oil painting, charcoal drawing, colored pencils and mixed media allow her a precise as well as imaginative visual language. Technical precision meets emotional depth, opening spaces where reality, memory and inner imagination intertwine.
Lena Frauenknecht and the Tandem Principle
Lena D. Frauenknecht is part of the InterCultureLab program as a tandem partner of Mahla Atarhayetehrani. The one-year tandem format connects artists with migration backgrounds with established players in the Regensburg art and cultural scene. Joint development, testing, and reflection form the basis for new artistic impulses.
The special atmosphere of the Stadelgalerie
The Stadel temporär exhibition series focuses on short, concentrated presentation periods and changing artistic positions. In the historical Künstlerhaus Andreas-Stadel, characterful architecture meets contemporary art. The limited duration intensifies the viewing of the works: colors, lines, surfaces, and materials enter into immediate relationships with the spatial effect.
The opening takes place on Friday, November 6, 2026, at 6 PM. On Saturday and Sunday, the exhibition is open from 2 PM to 7 PM. The participating artists are present and available for discussions. This creates an immediate art experience that connects aesthetic experience with cultural education and personal encounter.
Conclusion: Experience contemporary art directly
The exhibition of Fatemeh Shiri, Mahla Atarhayetehrani, and Lena Frauenknecht promises a multifaceted viewing of works about identity, cultural experience, and artistic dialogue. Those who want to discover international perspectives, painting, object art, and the vibrant Regensburg art scene should definitely experience this special exhibition weekend in the Andreasstadel live.
